Good but could be better

I have owned this car for 5 years and racked up 70k miles. I was looking for a cheap daily commuter and an efficient, reliable vehicle for occasional longer work trips. Based on the rave reviews I chose this car over a Civic or Corolla. Pros include excellent fuel efficiency (average 40 mpg on the highway), very sporty (in manual mode...), high level interior trim, and reliable. I have had to do nothing with this car other than change the oil and replace one sensor. Cons include a very stiff ride, tiny cargo space, poor visibility, and above all - a terrible automatic transmission. The throttle response from a stop or low speed can be excessively long and it upshifts far too soon. You can double tap the accelerator for a quicker response but that gets tiring, especially in stop and go traffic. All Mazda needed to do was install a simple over-drive...Also the steering is overly responsive and requires constant correcting. It is perfectly fine as a cheap daily commuter but it is not fun to drive, contrary to Mazda's marketing. Get a Civic or Corolla instead for cheap and reliable, or a Golf if you want something fun to drive...
