What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the the Mazda Mazda5
| Price of the Mazda Mazda5: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD | Cheap. Very good value. |
| 2010 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD | 0% 72 MONTHS HERE IN CANADA |
| 2009 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD | The price was/is reasonable. Far lower than the much bigger, much less fun to drive Toyota Sienna or Honda Oddessy. Plus, I got $2,000 cash back direct from Mazda at the end of April, 2009. |
| 2009 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Can get a full load of options for around the same cost as the base of models with comparable size and quality. |
| 2008 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Within my budget - the same or much cheaper than other cars with seating for 6 or 7 people. |
| 2008 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD | Low sticker, good base features and high resale makes this a cheap ride. |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD | Hard package to beat for 20k well-equipped |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD | Despite extra cargo room and versatility, price is close to that of the smaller Mazda 3. Even the base model is very well optioned. |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Excellent value for money - 18k for 6 seater car with climate control, sunroof, auto. |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Competitive pricing compared to the similarly sized KIA and perhaps the Matrix/Vibe. |
| Price of the Mazda Mazda5: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Not a bad value, but the Chevy HHR was $2000 less and had 15,000 fewer miles. |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD | good lease rates due to high resale value |
| Price of the Toyota RAV4: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 179-horsepower 2.5L I4 4-speed automatic AWD | Price was high, dealer did not offer much of a discount or was willing to work with me on my trade-in |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD | A base RAV4 is quite inexpensive. Fully optioned, the price can balloon by a third. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD | V6 more. Not a fair comparison. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD | No incentives |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD | A bit more than the crv, didnt want to wait 3 monthes for a custom built one from toyo corp since brother works there. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD | Too pricey compared to a Honda. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | Almost $5000 more than a comparably equipped Santa Fe. Depreciation will be better, but I tend to keep cars long term so upfront pricing matters to me. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD | The RAV4 was a bit more expensive than comparable cars. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD | Significantly higher price than comparable vehicles. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD | The vehicle is somewhat expensive, but the value is high because it offers alot for that money. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD | Little more expensive than some competitors and no great financing rates either. I guess since the car is popular they know people will pay the extra. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD | I have always thought that cars are way more expensive than they need to be. Toyota tends to be more expensive that most. |

| 2009 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
very well put together inside and out. Paint job is above average and fit on panels is perfect. |
| 2008 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Generally excellant fit and finish. |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Nice material choice, very nicely put together. Feels solid. |

| 2008 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Materials did not seem that durable in the used 2008 that we looked at....plastic surfaces were scratched and worn after 40,000 miles. |
| 2007 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The build quality is not the best inside, there are a lot of plastic inside |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Cheap looking and cheap feeling interior materials, particularly the silver-painted trim bits. Centre console is loose and plastics are easily scratched. |

Mine has been 100% reliable with no repairs needed beyond normal servicing. Forget the media-hyped recalls and check the reliability stats here and elsewhere...their at/near the top of most surveys. Check out the Car&Driver Cute-Ute comparison articles. The V6 AWD version topped all other similar-optioned vehicles...even the newer-designed models. And the 4-cylinder version is still seen as a safe purchase holds its own against the lower-optioned versions. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Good quality interior materials except for headliner. Not quite as good as my 2008 Accord |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Tight fit. No rattles or squeaks. |

| 2010 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Hard, very cheap plastics all over the interior. Creaks, rattles, squeaks and groans are plentiful in the interior. Road noise can be invasive at times. Very disappointing in a near 40k SUV. |
| 2010 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Hard touch plastics for the price they are asking? No way! |
| 2010 | 4dr SUV 179-horsepower 2.5L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
awful rattles and creaks when turning from drivers side, major reason to sell it after only 3 months, 8000 miles |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Interior has held up well, but there's way too many hard surfaces on dash & doors. But it's comparable to other value-priced Cute-Utes (under $30K) designed & marketed prior to 2009. Most auto manufacturers have focused on upgrading the interiors since the later 2000s, when they re-design their vehicles. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Heating duct drains were not installed properly causing water to drain into passenger compartment. The evap cannister will fill with gas if you top up your tank beyond the first click at the pump, causing it to fail. Poor design. $1000 repair. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Interior materials are more spartan and more trucklike than competing models. Other than that, overall fit and finish is very good though. |
