So, we bought this new vehicle at the end of July, with our anticipation of our 3rd child. We needed something bigger to fit all 3 car seats and the Audi just didn't cut it. We spent 3 weekends at the Richmond auto mall looking at all the different minivans and 7-seater SUVs on the market. Rich spent endless hours on the internet searching for the best one.
We had our mind sent on the Infinity QX but because we wanted the 2013 model which wasn't on the CDN market yet, we kept our options open. We heard about the Mazda5 and decided to check it out. As it turned out, the Mazda5 suited our family needs perfectly. It can seat 6 people, in 3 rows of 2 seats. The car doors slide open (like a van) so we don't have to worry about banging into other cars when the kids go in and out. And best of all, the sales person who helped us that day, gave us a deal that we couldn't refuse. We bought the car that day ($28,500 taxes in). They call it the mini-minivan.
When we picked up the car, there was only 9km on it! Wow! The kids call it the happy car (because the front of the car looks like a happy face).
We've had the car for over a month now and I really like the feel of it. Drives smooth, drives like a car (not like a van), feels safe and fits everyone. Cargo space, not so good but it's working well for us. PS - we kept the Audi so the inlaws have a car too.
