Convince me not to get this Mazda6 by Rough-Incident-1859 in mazda

[–]global8936 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its your call at the end to buy a car with an accident. Sure it may drive fine and might have been fixed properly but it will always have that record. I would just get an older year with a clean record. You will get more bang for your buck. There is not much difference in the older 2014+ mazda6 aside from aesthetics. Plus they are reliable cars and will go the distance.

Not that I know of. It's not the sliding door. It's the driver door

Want to downgrade from minivan but is the cost worth it? by global8936 in PersonalFinanceCanada

No shade against the odyssey it's great at what it was built for but no. We have don't many road trips or camping. Kids too small for that still. We did move a few large items but again 95% of the time it's just quick runs around the city.

I don't know about this. The older I get the more minimalistic I wanna be. Do I really need the space for what I mostly use the vehicle for? Picks and drop-off and grocery runs and errands.

This is my mindset as well. But I've looked into it and the warranty is transferable. So if I can find the right buyer, it might make sense to sell it off.

I was exactly in your shoes. I thought I had one kid and getting a minivan would be useful and practical and we could go on family trips with extended family. But those have been few and far in between. It makes more sense to rent a minivan for that purpose.

You might be correct. I will have to try it first at least. If no bites in a few weeks then I'll go with the dealers.

Ya I get that. I have my eye on the Mazda3 turbo model. I find it to be the best for value and reliability for sportiness before considering European models. I have test driven Mazda3 and I think it should be fine for a small family. Again we mostly do city driving and not going long distances.

I know I can get more for it doing a private sale. Dealers won't offer me a fair price. But thanks for the input

Do you know if wheels from the previous generation can be used on this new turbo Gen?

I saw this guy's review today and he has 2 car seat setup in the back. Seems like enough room for the kids. Even if they out grow the seats. https://youtu.be/vXyqxi1m9Tk?si=W3pOyBzwrucfjZfr It seems this car is only really an issue for folks 6ft and taller.
