@sonny12681 4 года назад

It's actually a collaborative effort based on Mazda's upcoming rwd inline 6 platform. If my current 2016 Mazda 6 handles this well with over 100k miles I can only imagine their upcoming RWD platform. Miata has often been hailed as best handling sports car in world under 50k for a reason.

@mrubuntuking5257 4 года назад

But then dealers wouldn't deal on new ones and used ones wouldn't depreciate. I prefer Mazda remain an open secret shared by 2% of the population; you're doing well to pay MSRP at a Honda or Toyota dealer. Even when the car's crap, like a 1.5T CR-V, ZF 9HP anything, or a CVT Corolla, the dealer won't budge because they know some other sucker will buy it without knowing any better, and they'll happily tell you so. Mazdas are some of the last affordable quality out there, I got 15% off my Mazda6 and I liked it better than a Camry or Accord. Mazda themselves have said they're happy with 2% as long as it's the most loyal 2%. Compare that to VW, who approach 4% of the market on a good day, but whose crappy cars lose their "premium" sheen so quickly that buyers bounce back to another brand, and don't try VW again for 10-15 years. A brand lives or dies on its ability to move customers up through the lineup. Golfs are decent cars, but hatchbacks don't sell in America. A Passat or Jetta buyer isn't moving up the VW AG range into Audi and Porsche, the way a Toyota Corolla buyer would retire in a Lexus ES, a Honda Civic turns into an Acura TLX, or a teenager driving a used base Mazda3 will eventually carry their family in a loaded CX-5. High churn is bad for a car company, you need to create identity, loyalty, and emotional investment. That's where the highest profit margins are. A Chevy Aveo needs to become a Cadillac Escalade, not a Honda Fit and then Acura RDX. Nissan has over 5x Mazda's market share, GM over 10x, VW double, but I'd rather be Mazda right now.

@DJBla2e01 4 года назад

Mazda is the 2nd most popular car manufacturer here in Australia

@schwenda3727 4 года назад

Dylan Byrne, that isn't the case here in the US... The Cx5 sells in decent numbers, but the rest of the lineup has been way down compared to the competition. It's very understandable for the 6's numbers to be extremely low, since not only is it in a class of car most likely to be traded in for a crossover the instant they get extra $$$, but despite the gen debuting as a 2014, it started selling in mid 2013. It's basically a 7 year old car, making it its oldest car in its lineup. If you don't need a turbocharged engine or air conditioned seats, then why pay $30+ grand when you can get just about the same car lightly used for around $15 grand? But on the other hand, their Cx9... their midsize 3 row... sells only slightly more units than the 6 when the rest of the competition sells infinitely more of theirs... well into the hundreds of thousands annually when every newer mazda other than the Cx5 is a pretty rare sight in many places in America.

Bought my first Miata 30 years ago. Just purchased my fourth. But ya know, it goes beyond that. Here’s this rather small car company, and when the whole world is saying the little 2-seat roadster is dead - that the convertible is dead - what do they do? They come out with the Miata. And when the whole world is saying the rotary engine is an experiment that failed, what do they do? They come out with the marvelous RX-8. This company is not like the other car companies. This company has, at its core, a bunch of engineers with a passion for automobiles. Not just bean counters with MBA’s, but engineers willing to stick their necks out to pursue something they believe in. Even when the rest of the world is saying “no, you can’t do that”. I just gotta reward a company like that with my business. And so I do. ❤️

Mazda while still are making good cars, are starting to get dry and less interesting. Let look at the new Mazda 3. It look nice sure, but it heavier than the old one, still uses the exact same engine as the old one and they start from around $30 grand AUD (while the previous model started around $22 grand AUD). I would much rather get a Toyota Corolla, Kia Cerato or Hyundai i30 for that money if I was looking for a small car.

I have seen some issues with the Cx-5's, but mostly minor things (Seat warmers/strut covers), A LOT of issues with the CX-3's, but the CX-9 had 0 issues. Also, I prefer the 3.7 V6 over the 2.5T. While the 2.5 is much easier to work on, the power and torque are not available on-demand, since the turbo needs to spool. The 3.7 get really good mileage for its size, and it accelerates like a dream. Both of them are really quite and do a great job of isolating tires/wind/suspension noises. I think the CX-9 even beats the BMW X5 in that aspect. The (HORRID) CX-7 were canceled and had a LOT of turbochargers issues (among MANY other issues). All the "Mazda-Speed" line had Turbochargers issues as well...so I'm a little worried about Mazda's and Turbos, but only time will tell since these are brand-new designs of turbos and engines.

@haydn-db8z 4 года назад

Upon inspecting the door jambs of all the models in a local Mazda showroom, I found that the only one on the floor not made in Japan was a Mazda3. But that wasn't a 2019. One nice thing about Mazda's being a small company is that they haven't been able to open plants here in the US until recently, so most of their cars are still made in Japan, like the two Mazdas I own. The 2019 Mazda3 models aren't selling as well as previous models, perhaps because 1) they've increased their price along with the quality of the interiors to compete with the likes of the Audi A3. I helped a Honda-leaning friend buy a car last year and once she sat in in the CX-5 the quality really got her attention and she bought the Mazda instead. And 2) the Mazda3 hatch has some polarizing styling, which I didn't particularly like in initial photographs but loved in person. The Mazda3 hatch is still available with a manual on the top trim. To repeat what was said before: If you're getting a Japanese car, get one that is made in Japan. If the one you're looking at isn't made in Japan, buy a different trim level or format (hatch vs. sedan vs. etc.) in order to get one made in Japan. Don't get a turbo if you can get a larger naturally-aspirated engine (e.g. get the Mazda 2.5L non-turbo vs. the Honda 1.5L turbo). Don't get a CVT for now, but hey, maybe they'll be great in a few years (get a modern automatic - or even better, a manual if you really want to be engaged in driving your car.)

@peggiemuir5704 3 года назад

I have a 2014 Mazda 6 Grand Touring that I purchased new in August 2013. 2013 was the first year the Mazda 6 had the Skyactiv engine. I was concerned about that but she now has 133,500+ miles on her. The serpentine belt finally broke 2 nights ago. This is the only problem I have had with her but we made it home without issue and I drove it to get it replaced the next morning for $150. I love this car, try to take good care of her and don't see retiring her until I hit 300,000 miles. I may need to up my maintenance now that she's gotten to this point but otherwise, she is a wonder car for me!

I'm so glad you made this video. I've owned a 2010 mazda 6 since 2013. I've change all the fluids as suggested in owners manual and after 6 yrs and 150,000 miles I have zero complaints and zero repairs. After watching a few of your videos about mazda i went and researched Mazda and things you were saying in the past videos werent lining up with what I found to be true. In 2 yrs when I hit 200k miles im buying a 2018 Mazda 6 Grand Touring. So thanks again for doing your homework.

I had a fully loaded 2010 Mazda6 and i loved it. A few probs though....the Bose amp fried and the keyless entry stopped working. Unfortunately a VERY large dump truck ended my relationship with that car. I replaced it with a sweet Cosmic Gray 2014 Camry that i expect to run flawlessly for the foreseeable future.

My last 4 cars have been Mazdas. With the exception of the re-badged Escape, they've been amazing, and I wouldn't buy anything else. I ended up working at a dealership for a while, and I gotta say, they make some impressive vehicles. Currently own a 2018 CX-9, and the only thing I'd trade it in for, is a newer model. (Because more goodies)

@MrMattDat 2 года назад

Scotty, as an owner of two CX-5s (a 2013 and 2015) I must agree with you and give you some long-term feedback. The 2015 has just needed brakes. The 2013 is just starting to show its age, with a battery, the master cylinder failing this summer, and some suspension parts wearing out (sway bar link and lower ball joint). I have been very happy with these and may even buy a 3rd!
