Good solid little carSource: Edmunds...Being on a tight budget I bought a 2012 Ford Focus, but I never thought about looking at the Mazda 2. I have driven Toyota's Yaris 4-door and it had a noisy ride and a hard feel on the road. The Mazda 2 had a quiet, solid feel inside with lots of space for a six-foot tall driver. The doors closed with a solid thunk. The Mazda 2 was smooth and fast. The Edmunds review here says that the automatic transmission was not adequate. I thought it was.

Owned an 09 Yaris prior, near the same price, but no radio, no power windows/locks, no remote,no rear wiper, no cd player, smaller and rather goofy looking and not as comfy either. It's still hard for me to accept even the price of the Mazda, as prices on new cars are just obscene and in reality they are all so much alike, the Mazada 2 stands out for it's total value and... |
