- 2014 Mazda5 Sport 6 speed manual
Super jazzed guys. After about 8 test drives of different vehicles, small SUV's, hatchbacks etc, the 5 is my favorite of them all. I know it's a little long in the tooth, but I don't care. It just drives so well and it so perfectly suited to my needs, I was almost certain it was what I'd get after my first test drive.
So, I'll be going in on Friday, armed with a TrueCar report and ready for battle. (whistle)
Any advice or anything cool you guys want to tell me? Any recommendations?
The only options I'm getting are Sirius radio and some all weather floormats for now I think, unless there's something else great you think I should consider. Kind of like to have some bump and scrape protection too. Like door edge guards and side bump strips...
I did have two questions. I live in Florida and I'm a little concerned the A/C might not be powerful enough for this climate. I plan to get a nice dark tint to help it out a little though. Any thoughts on that?
Also, the stereo did not sound great to me...I can live with it, but I would like to upgrade while keeping the factory head unit. Has anyone attached an amp for more power to one of these and upgraded their speakers while sticking with the original head unit? How do you guys find the radio screen? Works well for navigating MP3's and Sirius radio stations?
Thanks in advance. REALLY looking forward to joining your ranks. I can hardly wait!
