Somewhat of a short wrap-up this week eh?
I wonder how similar the new Mz3 will look when it comes out.

I tested this car. It looks like a million bucks. I am shopping for a possible Accord replacement. Unfortunately, the steering feels like that of a 1967 Chrysler Newport. It's totally soft and geriatric in feel. In my opinion, it ruins an otherwise awesome car. 

What was Mazda thinking? This car shouts "Drivers Car" and then let's you down when you drive it.  Zoom This!

I have to agree.

My dad and I test drove a GS Comfort package, I4, auto on Saturday. Power was okay (nothing special), ride was comfortable (not soft but not jarring either), and it was spacious inside. But like you mentioned, the steering was horrible. Too light for my tastes, and not that responsive.

..maybe....just maybe as the Olde 6 sold poorly...but was SPORTISH!!!!...they figured more Mamas & Papas would like the electric steering  and easy peasy parking..and they'd SELL MORE...just a thought.
                               The light Gold version with the tan upholstery was a beaut..BUTT! i only sat in it................can ya not just take the "duracell" out the steering column and BEEF it UP fer U Mother TRUCKERS..... Poke Dancy Banana Thinker No No
