hello all, if your lease was up would you be happy getting another pt ?? just curious
I don't like the new ones all that much.
Instead of freshining the performance issues (like the gas mileage and turning circle of a much larger car; and where is the AWD Turbo SRS model? Or the daytime running lights?) they just did a trim 'upgrade'.

That rear hatch push-button release just seems to be asking for trouble. I LIKE the old-fashioned mechanical latch.

While the analog clock on the center dash is nice, and the kids think having 2 cup holders in the back is a Good Thing, I miss the overhead info display, and was disappointed with the cheapness of the 'Touring Edition' trim level (no tinted glass, cheap plastic wheel covers instead of alloy)

And that remote-control-on-the-key? Did anyone at DC ever try to put one in their pocket?

I have another year of payments on the wee beasty, then I figure I can get a year or two of the Sweet Spot (no payment book, and no major repairs) so I am not really looking at a replacement now.

But if I were: The Mazdaspeed 6 looks pretty sweet, too bad it's not a wagon.
