  • good-looking, nice-handling, my baby! - 2004 Mazda MPV
    By -

    I am a female driver and I look at cars in parking lots. I cant figure out that I drive any cars too big (like Expedition) or too small (like Honda Civic). I love the size, cute look, features, power and handling of the MPV of Mazda. I got it at very good deal with zero percent financing.

  • Excellent mini van - 2004 Mazda MPV
    By -

    My Mazda MPV is very fun to drive, suspension is awesome in the corners. Has everything I need for comfort and plenty of poweer for a 3.0 litre. Only draw back is shift lever interferes with radio, but controls on the steering wheel do away with that. Very happy with my purchase.

  • Love the Zoom-Zoom of this Minivan - 2004 Mazda MPV
    By -

    When I first heard the term "Body of a Minivan, Soul of a Sports Car" I was quite sceptical, til I test drove it. I tried the Sienna and Oddysey, but the MPV really had the bargain I was looking for. For the price of a somewhat "middle class" Sienna, I can get an MPV thats fully loaded, and I mean the works,leather, traction ctrl, sunroof.. everything! Handling is awesome. The V6 is strong & its as zippy as my Golf GTI, but less problematic =). I found out that the MPV is the only minivan here today made in Japan (the rest are US made) it has great resale value too. Truly a sports car disguised as a minivan.

  • Worst product ever presented - 2004 Mazda MPV
    By -

    My wife and I purchased this vehicle roughly two years ago. This vehicle has been in the shop 6 times since we purchased it. It has a broken catalytic converter, bad fuel injectors, bad wheel bearing, bad water pump, bad transmission, bad transmission mounts, bad engine mounts. This list goes on and on. Weve put over $8000 in this car that isnt even worth $3000. It has been the worst investment that weve ever made in our 24 years of existence. I hope that theyre able to remedy these problems because I cant believe that these cars are even on the road.

  • Great scores but..... - 2004 Mazda MPV
    By -

    The issue is once we approached 5 years/80K miles, the engine light came on. Its been downhill ever since. After 8 visits to 5 different shops including the dealer, we paid $3K to fix the catalytic converter. The final straw is 1 day after forking over $3,000, the light comes on again and the transmission shifts all over the place. The dealer has no clue. If you ever are told you have to replace the catalytic converter ....dont. Time to go shopping. We were told we need to spend another $300 for some assembly and the guy wasnt sure this would fix the problem.

    I had the 2000 mpv and now i have the 2003 mpv and i am very pleased with both of them. The 2003 has a bigger motor which makes even better.

  • Great Family Vehicle - 2004 Mazda MPV

    :)This car looks really nice from the outside, I think even better than the Dodge Caravan does. It has amazing style for a minivan and is nicely spaced on the inside. I would definitely recommend this car to anybody looking for a great family vehicle!:)

  • love my Mazda minivan - 2004 Mazda MPV

    This is my 3rd Mazda Minivan and wouldnt have any other "brand". I love this van! I do lots of long trips with my dogs and we are all comfy and safe in this van.

  • awesome to drive - 2004 Mazda MPV

    IT RIDE IS VERY SMOOTH, COMFORT INSIDE, LIKE THE BACK SIDE FITS VERY WELL, DVD PLAYER IS AWESOME FOR LONG ROAD TRIPS....

  • BUILT FOR SMALL PEOPLE - 2004 Mazda MPV
    By -

    WE LOVE THE LOOK OF THE EXTERIOR BUT THE INTERIOR LEAVES ALOT TO BE DESIRED. INTERIOR CARPET CHOICES OF LIGHT GREY AND LIGHT BEIGE SHOW EVERY MARK OF SHOES.BETWEEN MIDDLE AND FRONT SEATS HAVE DISMAL LEG ROOM. OUR 2 YEAR OLD GRANDAUGHTER CAN KICK THE FRONT SEAT. ARM RESTS ON FRONT SEATS ARE WAY TOO LOW TO BE OF ANY USE WHATSOEVER. WE LIKE THE ROLL DOWN WINDOWS ON SLIDERS AND NO CUT LINE IN THE BODY FOR SLIDERS. GAS MILAGE IS WAY BELOW WHAT WAS ON THE STICKER. IT IS SUPPOSE TO GET 25 HWY. WE GET 20 ON TRIPS AND LESS IN TOWN
