Sup everyone, I'm Donald, my wife and I just bought a 2007 Mazda 5 GT, black with black cloth with windows already nice and tinted on Saturday, saw this site before but thought it was reserved for Mazda 3 owners until I saw that 5s were welcome here as well.
Gotta say we absolutely love it so far, it's been great at the drive-in theatre, it's nice and comfortable (love the auto climate control), but when I took it for a good hard drive on Dewdney Trunk Road through Mission and Ruskin with all its curves and everything, you know when you think you love someone so much and then something happens to really love that person even more? That's the feeling.
I knew it handled pretty well from two test drives I did (a new 2009 GS and this 2007 GT) but aside from the body roll (which was expected for the tall body, certainly not excessive, better lower sway bars may do the trick), it was just exhilarating when pushed. And with a baby on the way, we'll really enjoy the versatile and practical side of the 5.
I'm looking forward to talking to some of you and picking up some tips on how to enjoy my 5 even more.
