The 2007 Mazda 5 is a great vehicle for those looking for something sporty that is actually very fun to drive. To be honest I believe that the Mazda 5 is a great option for those in need of a minivan that handles more like a car. When it comes to everyday chores the back life gate along with all the cargo room it has to offer is a real plus. My wife and I really like the side sliding doors as they come in very handy as well. If I had one complaint it would be that the model we own didn't come with cruise control which is a must for those who do a lot of highway driving. One reason I purchased the Mazda 5 was due to its versatility and its great amount of cargo space. All I can say is that if you are looking for a fun to drive minivan the Mazda 5 is the vehicle you want.
