Agreed, had a family member with a Mazda 3 hatch that was a great daily driver and have rented the Mazda 3 sedan and it was pretty solid.

Never saw the words "Element" and "cool" in the same sentence before but that camper version is interesting.

Mazdas are just the most embarrassingly rusting cars ever.

If you don't mind the ugliness, a Scion xB '12 up is probably the best use of interior space ever. It has a Camry engine and there are manuals out there. You can add lowering springs and/or make a few minor mods to be originalish.

I bought a new '12 xB to efficiently move pinball machines. Otherwise wouldn't have known of the twins under development or have ordered an FR-S the day they went on sale.

other good to look at vehicles is the mazdaspeed 6, but they are getting up there mileage wise. Slightly used Infiniti's are amazingly fun cars to drive but for whatever reason no one wants them. You can get them a few years old for mid 20's.

Any year subaru impreza or forester is great. Mileage doesn't matter, they are absurdly reliable and fun to drive. If you can find a clean Legacy GT they rock.

Also check out both used hybrids and electric cars. Both sell like garbage on the used market, so massive deals can be had. Rumors are BMW dealers will give you an i3 lease for $60 a month because no one wants them.

Entertain me with anything.

What 3-5 year old car would you buy for a DD?

You started out this thread in a depressive state because you were drinking crappy beer. I think the bottom line is, change beers....how about a good old Molson Golden!!!

Ahh...pleasant memories. My beer of choice now is a good old Hamms. From the land of sky blue waters!

one of these babies and you won't have to worry about the taste

(you may however have to worry about passing out face down in a bathtub full of your own bodily fluids in a complete stranger's house you mistook for your own)

you know something is wrong when the kids today can't even guzzle properly. A device to help them do a keg stand? What's next? Will it have to come with an automated pump because they can't figure out that part next?
