I was booting down the highway with 4 or board, and I look down at the speedometer and ...... 180 KM per hour (111 mph).... I quickly slowed down before I could check the revs........ but I think it still had some room to go...
So how fast have you gone in your Mazda 5?

you might want to break in the engine first instead of keeping it at constent high revs all the time

Hummm...

The Mazda3 has the fuel cut off set at 118 mph. I wonder if it is the same for the 5.

Doesn't look like it.
I'm like an old fart driving mine. But then again, I didn't buy my 5 to go racing.

hehehe

I personally really like the way the front end of the Mazda5 looks, it's great. Interior is nice, and the cars are so damn functional. Now if only they weren't so tall and heavy.

I'll tell you what, my 5 flies. It doesn't feel top-heavy at all, and corners like it's on rails.
