How is the 3rd seat? We looked at a Mazda MPV in 2004 but my wife thought the 3rd seat was extremely uncomfortable for anyone except perhaps smaller children. Bought a Short wheelbase T&C instead.

after viewing the cutlass, i need a napkin!

I am dying to see the Mazda5 next time I get back to the states. I like the idea of the smallish people mover vehicles, but the ones I see over here in Korea are pretty frumpy looking. There's almost no chance of me seeing one here...the only inroads non-Korean cars have made into the Korean market have been by luxury or specialty vehicles...Mazda doesn't even bother to try to sell cars here because of the nearly 80% price increase due to import taxes and customs fees.Yours looks sweet! But you gotta get those windows tinted...black vehicles look great with dark tinted windows.

It looks too minivanish, full of compromise instead of innovation.

I will agree, looks kinda odd to me.

That's baaaaaaad.... Did they every fix the spontaneous combustion issues with them though?

ofcorse it looks minivanish it's a minivan!he doesn't have to f-ing inpress any of you!

As long as they are expressed in the correct way IMHO there's no problem with that.I didn't think it was a minivan though, it ends up looking like a compact wagon...

It's a nice minivan. But I am totally jelous of that garage. If I put a car in my garage I can only open the door far enough for my arm to get out.

Yeah I would sooo like to have a garage that big! Lots of room to work on the car indoors instead of outdoors with the elements interfering.As for the car, the first thing that came to my mind was "bubble car". It looks too roundish... like an egg or something. I don't really know though. I'd have to look at the interior and take it for a test drive to really see if I like it.But having three rows of seats for under $20k, that's pretty good!

heah guys thanks for the comments it is different than anything out there now and the 3rd row is for a small adult or children of course thats why we bought it traded in our liberty for it too have the elbow room works well and the quality i'm really impressed with as i was of course with my GT realy easy to drive independent rear suspension 4 wheel disc and abs 3 row curtain air bags rear doors slide like a minivan with 27' opening really easy to step into not climb into , and best part its not a minivan!!! its on a car platform with mini van space inside it platform shares with the mazda 3 2.3 liter 160 horse more than a base vibe and side by side to my vibe the rear bumper is about 4 "s longer thats all amzing the auto stick is cool digitally shows you what gear its in so far i love it , and as for the garage lol thats my dream come true its a 30x40 with another 1 car detached beside it the homes 2300 sq ft aswell really happy to have found such a wonderful home in such a nice neighborhood aswell and for the car well its not as fast as my vibe GT its not going to get the mods the vibe has but for a car that is so well equipted for around $18.500 if your in the market for a little room and dont like minivans heres the route boys thansk again and i'll try and get some more photos up aswell later and What up Fish sorry to here about the G6 that sucks !!!!!

If I put a car in my garage I can only open the door far enough for my arm to get out.I agree man!I'm jealous of people who have garages they can pull into, have several feet of clearance all around, and work on the car in the comfort of a heated room...BAH to you all! That's actually pretty nice looking george. Never got to check one out up close at the last auto show. Can you get some shots of the rest of it? Back end, front end, interior?

Quote, originally posted by george »and best part its not a minivan!!! its on a car platform with mini van space inside iti parked next to one of these at the grocery store last night. when i first pulled, in, i really did think it was a minivan (to me, the rear end has a boxier shape that makes me think more minivan and less car or suv). i walked aroudn it a couple of times after i realized what it was and thought that it looked a lot like a lowered minivan with some extensive body work on the front end. maybe not my favorite, but definitely not a bad looking car. besides, before pontiac owners can say anything to anyone else about vehicle appearance, keep in mind who was responsible for the aztec.

I will be building/buying a house in the summer, one of my requirements is a two door two stall garage, the other is a room in the basement big enough to play pool on without any crowding.
