I Know that I am posting this in the first gen Mazda 5 forum, so it may be a little biased. Which generation do you prefer and what are the pro's and con's of each. It would be nice to hear from those who have owned both or at least driven both. It also would be nice to get some input on more than just the obvious exterior design change. Is the interior design better in the 2012?, is there a noticeable difference in power from the 2.3 to the 2.5 mzr engine? Is the stock handling in the 2012 better than the stock in the previous generation? Should one just wait the 2 or 3 more years it will take for sky-activ to reach the 5?
