This car surprisingly has a lot of punch, and it comes in handy when you go down highways, trying to get out of the snow, or getting out of the way on those last-second yellow lights in intersections.

Comfort is what it is for a Mazda. I don't expect much from it, but it never gave me any sore butts.

Performance wise has to be the spotlight on this vehicle as its 160hp engine delivers incredible responses.

Fuel economy has also been very generous towards my wallet as I only had to fill up once every two weeks.

Interior/Exterior designs are, once again as I don't expect too much, decent but definitely sporty looking all the way through.

Reliability, surprisingly for a ten-year-old vehicle, has been very well behaved and only problems have been the expected such as replacing new battery and new brakes; I never had any major problems.
