Got a 2012 5 today. It has the 6spd and I am very happy with the way it drives. I drove a few vehicles this past few days figuring what I would like. 2011 Sonata pretty zippy, but is a sedan with the utility limitations (once helped my mother move and she could get more into her eclipse than I could get into a larger midsize sedan). 2011 Kia Sorento 4cyl was fine around town power wise, but was a little slower on the interstate and the ride was stiff. 2011 Chrysler T&C engine has strong engine and huge space, but handling was unispiring.
I am a single male who had a simple goal. Comfortable, good handling, more space and utility than my 09 Rabbit, decent gas milage and the ability to camp comfortable in the car. The MZ 5 will do everything I just listed and stuff I have yet to imagine or need. It is not the perfect car for everyone. Some folks really will need the space of a full minivan and I will say the interior of the chrysler was beautiful to behold (base touring model). I have been informed that I will not be attracting any young ladies with this car. I disagree and am not sure it would be great to buy a car to impress everybody else and not like it myself.
You guys have helped alot by answering my questions and with the huge quantities of info available on this site. My first 2 mods will be tint and a slim powered sub
Thanks again for the help,
Stew
