Agreed on Mazda. My friend has an '08 3 GT and his brother (also my friend lol) has an '08 Mazdaspeed 3. Very nice little cars. We got a rental Altima 2.5S and we were not impressed at all. The rear trunk felt really cheap when we opened it and the seats were not comfortable at all. In terms of Korean cars, though they may not be up to snuff I still think they've come a long way. Especially Hyundai. We got a a new Elantra as a rental one time and were quite impressed with it. Was quite comfy too. Same with the Tucson. Got one as a rental a few weeks ago when we went to Boston and it was quite comfy. Let me tell you this though.... it was a V6 but certainly didn't feel like it! :lol:
