Why not many Mazda 5 facelift on the road?

[Mzrmazda3]

You poor???

[Nkps]

i not poor meh?

 

i only drive a sub 55K range car, i can't afford to upgrade my new car wheel, my car come with no leather seat, i need to sell house to buy car, most importantly........... I DO NOT DRIVE a MERC nor a BMW

[En0203]

But Mazda 5 price is higher

 

hence u don't see many mzd5 around lo

but this will give u some exclusivity isn't it?

[Maroon5]

act recently my side had 3 instances of sg going for e established jap brands...a mz3 fren only drove less than 2 yrs wanted to change to civic, then my sis chose a march over mz2 and a fren coming back from overseas chose camry over mz6...so if tis is reflective of e bigger sg buyers then mzd

Almost no change, I also hardly can tell whether new of facelift.

 

The only thing I can tell is that the new facelift come with nicer LED tail light

 

I think i saw one. Red color,SJE plate,shud be FL version,butt not much diff also

[En0203]

very rich already, i can't even afford normal car, have to drive OPC

It has been a popular belief that Mazda is poor in FC and performance. Well, I guess it is up to individual tolerance level.

 

However, I think that Mazda has the best and most aggressive design. Mazda 5 is coolz...

[Ahyoo2002]

only around 13km/l...one of the worst FC for cars in the 1 tonne range.

 

That is very good liao, at least to me

[Ahyoo2002]

Look at the other mpv on the road..

 

I feel that they look much better than the 5..

 

I think Mazda 5 design is very good

[Ahyoo2002]

But Mazda 5 price is higher

 

hence u don't see many mzd5 around lo

but this will give u some exclusivity isn't it?

 

Yah, but then I still see many pre-facelift Mazda 5

[Ahyoo2002]

Yah, I like the design, but I do not like the price with such low OMV

[Ahyoo2002]

Almost no change, I also hardly can tell whether new of facelift.

 

The only thing I can tell is that the new facelift come with nicer LED tail light

Yah, hardly can tell the diff but MM claims that this is new model and wants to charge a higher premium.

Test-drived the FL Mz5 once, what held me back were

 

1) Engine noise can easily be heard in the cabin

2) Low-end torque is poor compared to my old Picnic

3) Lack of storage compartments in the front

4) Very small boot space when last row seats are up

5) Middle seat of 2nd row budges up, not suitable for adult (>1.7m)

6) When sliding door opens fully, it exposes a diagonal arm below (labeled "Do Not Step") which somehow reduces ease of exit compared to other MPVs with sliding-door I've tried.

7) No HID.. Mazda shouldn't stinge on this to make Mz6 attractive

8) Combination of fabric and leather material on the seat somehow make it look less up-market.

9) Low roof removes the possibility of installing ceiling LCD monitor

 

What I like

1) Price.. ~$80k is considered quite affordable.

2) Nice sporty overall looks

3) Wide range of exterior colors to choose from

[Ahyoo2002]

My comment:

1) I thought the noise is very minimal liao?

6) I did not notice

7) To me, HID is good to have

8) This one, I have not have chance to see the real one yet, another cost cutting measure, I think

 

Wide range of colour? I still can not decide on one colour that I like

[Ahyoo2002]

Have you decide on which one to buy?

[En0203]

Yah, but then I still see many pre-facelift Mazda 5

 

but still less than the streams and wish, a lot lesser

[Ahyoo2002]

That is for sure

[En0203]

so what are u waiting?
