We had a 6 wagon in 2006 for about 9 months. Came missing all of the rubber grommets in the trunk, so it rattled like crazy, dealer eventually fixed it though. We got rid of it because the AC would randomly stop working (sitting at a light, running down the highway, cruising in the neighborhood and the compressor cuts out, air starts blowing HOT). Mazda dealer told us it was designed that way and there was nothing we can do to make it blow cold 100% of the time. I said "screw that" and basically dumped it. My 35 year old Pontiacs and my new Hondas and Nissans always run the AC, why couldn't the Mazda engineers figure out what everyone else already knows? The car would also start and the dash lights, indicators, radio, or navigation system would not come on at all and you would have to turn the car off and restart it until they did.
Anyway, just something to consider. I'd watch out for the automatic\electrical AC controls and potential electrical problems.
