Explore the 2009 Mazda Mazda5

el peor carro que he tenido en mi vida.

De inicio, problemas con gastar las gomas disparejas por el dise�o de las gomas posteriores. En dos a�os, cambio de computadora, tuvo liqueo de aceite y tuve que comprar la pieza pues no vienen solo el kit. Transmisi�n reparada a los 5 a�os. Radiador, termostato y mangas nuevas. Compresor de aire acond reparado. No acabo con los problemas con los link kits, shock absorbers, caja de bolas... y ahora cuando menos pienso si caigo en un hoyo me quedo sin frenos, aun con bomba de frenos nueva, no salen c�digos que arrojen lo que pasa y nadie sabe qu� sucede.

Great choice for a family vehicle

Its cute, spacious, and has exceptional gas mileage. I love that it has 6 seats in total, plus my music sounds awesome. Nice GPS monitor as well!

So in love with this car

This car met all of my needs but 2. I wish it were all wheel drive and I also wish it were a little higher off the ground. Other than that, it is such a great little car!

It has been the Swiss Army knife. That never broke

It?s fun to drive, because underneath it?s a Mazda 3. The sliding doors make it easy to get in and out of. Both rows of seats gold as flat as a pickup bed. It?s the mouse that roared.

Practical, Roomy and good mileage

a good compromise between aero styling, good mileage, and roomy for a 4 cylinder vehicle . New 17 and 18 vehicles have good gas mileage and 4 cylinders, but the mazda5 was a alittle ahead of its time.

The best overall vehicle I own.

I own a 2009 Mazda 5 GS, I maintain it well and looks like it came off the lot. Also own a Mercedes C300, yes its in a different class but I enjoy driving my 5. It handles well, gets better gas mileage, and reasonable in the maintenance department. I love the look of this vehicle, practical for everyday use, I don't really find it under powered, I guess I am mostly driving it alone, its a blast to drive around ! I have changed the shocks on it and its an improvement, the rest is maintenance. If I had to buy another , you bet !

Excellent family car

Very good for family and travell, excellent interior decision. You can transform this car to comfortable sleeping for two or three very easy during travelling. It is 2.3 car, so very dynamic.

Most reliable car I've owned

This car is a perfect vehicle to transport my, growing kids, along with all of their friends. It has enough trunk space for both soccer bags and groceries, and I can rely on it in all weather conditions.
