I'm a Toyota fan, but I have to say I'm honestly pretty impressed with the build quality of modern Mazdas. They're good value for the fit and finish, as well as the material costs. It seems like after their partnership with Toyota they really improved a lot of their production and methods. The CX-5s and Mazda 3s/6s seem to be made very well and have held up decently from the consensus of most owners.

But even then, it was a wise partnership to share technology with the two companies, Toyota is still one of the largest manufacturers in the world so it still benefits Mazda to share their production line with them. There's no need to get in a frenzy about it.

Mazda makes great vehicles. I have previously owned a 2005 Mazda 3 and a 2014 Mazda 6. I currently own a 2019 Mazda CX-5 Signature Model. All 3 of these vehicles were purchased brand new, and had/have no problems whatsoever. All I have ever had to do with any of the Mazdas that I have owned is routine maintenance. My brother owned a Mazda RX-7 back in the 80s, and he never had any problems with it either. I will always be a huge Mazda fan. 👍👍

We've owned 2 Mazda6's. Great cars. Ours was automatic, I can drive standard, but wife preferred automatic. We drove cross country, and in all types of weather, and urban driving.

I got teh toyta for the xtended warranty and hopefully reliability, but if I could have afforded to gamble, would have taken another mazda hands down. Very comfortable to drive, brillaint handling, enough power to be safe whatever the manouvre, and great cabin quality. I have a newer toyata that has much less soundproofing, and is less comfortable, and a lot less fun to drive..... man, I miss my mazda.

My 2013 Mazda 3 has 185k on it. I have only had it for about 3 years, but after putting around 50k of my own miles on it, I'm pretty impressed with the lack of maintenance. Aside from typical oil changes, I did have to get the shocks changed out. But it runs incredible with 0 issues. And having the Skyactiv engine, I get 40+ mpg hwy and average 36 combined. This is my 2nd Mazda, and my next car will be my 3rd.

Recently bought a 2018 cx 5 GT and couldn't be happier! Does pretty well up here in chilly manitoba!

I have never seen a mazda ever let someone down. Owned 6 between me and a friend (we liked miatas since high school way back when they were actually cheap) and even the cars we absolutely dogged on ran just fine. Saw a mazda run and DRIVE on just 2 cylinders when there was a misfire, we limped the car to the shop and left it there for repairs without a tow.

We have a Mazda 6 03 6 cylinder sport. The car has over 200k and sometimes I see several on the roads where we live. We love this car the car has so much up and go Zoom zoom. Thank you for making a great car.

I live and work in Japan. Due to my work and lifestyle, owning a car in downtown Tokyo was not feasible for me because of the lack of space. As a result, I ended up renting a car every weekend. Fast forward five years later, I had tried almost every Japanese car in the compact and subcompact category. While all Japanese cars are great and reliable, there's something special about Mazdas. Even the budget models ride and feel premium, and they excel in the cost-to-quality ratio. When the time came to finally own a car, it was a no-brainer to choose a Mazda.

I remember driving the Mazda 626 which was before the 6 series. Excellent as well.

I'm on my 3rd mazda3: New '05 3i, 289k miles, son wrecked it and insurance totaled it. Used '09 3s GT, 266k miles, wife wrecked it and insurance totaled it. Used '15 3i GT, 81k miles, still going strong (not wrecked yet, fingers crossed). All manual transmission since I don't know how to drive an automatic trans! I like the smaller size of the 3 so I've never even looked at a 6. Will be getting my wife a CX5 this year. I think that says it all regarding my opinion of Mazda.

My daily driver is a 2014 Mazda 6 (124k miles at this point). I have the automatic transmission and the best mileage I got (with the AC running) was 38 mpg. Now that my daily commute is all freeway, I'm probably hitting 75-80 mph more often than not. Even so, at that speed my mileage is still respectable at 28-30 mpg. This is my 3rd Mazda (1979 RX-7/180k miles, 2005 Mazda 3/190k miles, and now the 6). Roughly 500k miles all told and zero forced maintenance with the exception of an A/C compressor on the 3). Extremely reliable vehicles.

It never left me stranded, but here are some of the problems. It was a very good looking car that was excellent particularly on the highway, but it was just okay overall. I had an '05 3 Touring hatchback 5 spd and, unlike the 6, it was my favorite car ever. It never had any problems and felt faster than the numbers showed. The shifter was also better than the one in the 6 due to the linkages being lined with Kevlar. I still miss that car. Brand loyalty is a fool's errand.

Yeah, I had a ‘21 Mazda6 Signature Turbo for a year and a half, and while there was a lot to like about it, the wind noise at highway speeds was pretty bad. Also, my door panels rattled and buzzed a lot from the Bose sub in the trunk and the speakers, and the infotainment system and backup camera were really poor quality. I ended up trading it in this past September for a ‘22 CX-5 Signature Turbo, and everything about it is WAY better!!

@@joebruhin2098 I may have had a 6 with bad insulation around the doors and windows because the wind noise in mine was pretty pronounced and distracting. I kept checking to see if the driver's side window was cracked open when I first got the car because it was so annoying. I noticed the doors didn't sound solid when I shut them either, so maybe the insulation in them was poorly installed. Oh well, it doesn't matter anymore because now I have the CX-5 Signature.

2012 Mazda 6, 2019 CX-5 and 2021 Mazda 3. Never had a lick of issues with any of them. Just regular routine maintenance and they last forever it seems. I see friends and family buy new Toyotas and Hondas and have issues, meanwhile my Mazdas keep rolling and thus I will continue to keep buying. Very underrated brand, hard to upsell them to people I know. They just go for the default Honda or Toyotas lol. The only real complain I have for Mazda is the paint quality. It's thin and chips easily. A good ceramic coating and PPF and problem is solved.

I’m familiar with the ceramic coating, but what is the PPF?

Fit For A King? HELL YEAH BROTHER 🤘🏻 Also, my father had a 2017 Mazda 6, loved it so much he got a newer 2020 right off the showroom floor and the improvement with the ride comfort, quieter interior, touching up of the front and rear and extra standard features more than justified the new purchase. I talked to someone just the other day with the same 6 and he said “dude I thought I was crazy because it was the same gen, but now I can rest better at night!” I also LOVE the Sport mode for merging because it holds the passing gear JUST right, really taking the anxiety out of the whole ordeal. My only minor complaint is the visibility out the back isn’t what I’d like it to be but it’s not a dealbreaker as you get standard back up camera and rear cross traffic alert. But I love his car, it’s much more fun to drive over my 04 Accord and I might get one over the new Camrys I’ve been looking at.

No issues except an annoying "sticky" dashboard problem they had with that model. It has been a terrific car and a lot of fun to drive. For its class, Mazda certainly prioritized the driver. I'm a fan.

I just wrote off my 2018 Mazda 6 Signature and I LOVED that car. So disappointed I couldn’t just replace it with a new model. Ended up getting the new CX5!

I've got a 2017 Mazda 3 Hatch, Japan built, that I've had for about 18 months and I love the thing. I've put over 25k on it already. Its a fun little car with a pretty decent aftermarket if you're into that. Plus I got a 6-speed with nice trim for 18k before prices went crazy.

So lovely, to see Scotty confirms the manual transmission will last forever.

I just bought a 2017 Mazda 6 Estate, with a 2.2l SkyActive engine, AWD and with a automatic transmission. This sedan model is simply gorgeous to look at, but the estate models? They are very fine ❤ Under 113.000km on the clock on mine, runs like a champ with 175hp. Probably gonna tune the engine in the future as soon as the warranty runs out 😅

Agree totally on the manual trans. I have taught both my daughters on them and started on my then 14 yr. old granddaughter with my 2015 Mazda 3 Grand Touring. When she turned 16, I gave her the car for her birthday (only 12K miles on it). To my surprise, she took her drivers test in this car and passed on her first attempt. The DMV inspector said it was the only girl in her 10 years of working at the DMV that had taken the test in a manual trans. Made my day. I also own a 2022 MX-5 RF Grand Touring in Platinum Quartz. And, yes, it is a manual. As soon as they come out with a Mazda 3 Turbo with a manual, I will be first in line.

I had a Mazda 3 hatchback that got 41 mph. I now have a 2019 CX-5 and it looks as good as the day it drove off the lot. No frayed stitches. No faded fabric. All fittings still snug. Did have to change the blower motor☹️ But I’m only ever buying Mazdas from now on. Mazdas always look like $60K cars. Bought a Chevy Trailblazer in 2003 and it began to fall apart almost before we left the lot.

I won't be saying goodbye to my Mazda 6, when the lease is up, I will be buying it out and keeping it.

I had a 2005 Mazda 3 hatchback and it was one of the best cars I’ve ever had. 267,000 miles before the 2.3 4cyl gave up. The 5 speed manual was flawless. No electrical issues ever.

I owned a 2006 Mazda 6, with 5 speed manual and 2.3L Duratec motor. One of the best most reliable cars I've ever owned. The only negatives on it were dim headlights and wide turning circle. Other than that it was a fantastic car and I only paid $17k for it new.

I still drive my 2009. Mazda 6 (euro spec) . 2.0 gasoline with a 6 speed manual. Bought it new and it has been flawless. A few years ago I was considering trading it in for a new car, but decided to keep it. Everything still works, it's still quiet, economical AND fun to drive! Being a Sportback with a hatchback trunk, it is also the most usable car I ever had. Folding the back seats turns it into a transportation monster. I managed to fit my daughter's room in one go when we were renovating: 3 closets, bed, mattress, chair, working table and a bunch of shelfs, ALL IN ONE GO 😂

We have them here in Japan and we love them! I drive a 2015 Atenza Skyactiv diesel. They did not discontinue the Atenza in all markets, just the US. I've only ever driven Mazdas for 25 years. And as long as they keep making them, I'll drive them 25 more.

I had a 2015 6 tourer that I loved. Unfortunately, the Mazda 2.2 Skyactive diesel engine developed injector issues and dumped diesel into the sump. It's a common issue so avoid this engine like the plague. I have ordered a 2019 saloon/sedan petrol 6 this week, in soul red. Looking forward to getting back in a 6!

I LOVE my 2015 Mazda 6. It looks similar the one on this video, also has Skyactive engine. Best car I have ever owned.
