Junkyard Gem: 2006 Mazda5 with manual transmission
A few years ago, I decided I wanted to buy a 5 with a manual transmission. This proved nearly impossible, partly because they are extremely rare and partly because searching for one online is maddening . As it worked out, I boughtAmerican minivan drivers have enough to do while driving that they don't want to add the stress of choosing gears to the load, apparently.
The Mazda5 had room for six, and the sliding doors on both sides proved extremely useful when doing minivan-type things. On paper, it should have sold very well here, but through two generations, its best year was 2008 and only about 22,000 sold. In 2015,The problem was that it was quite small by US-market minivan standards with far less interior space. Plus, with the captain's chairs pictured above, it could only seat six people., or at least minivans and hatchbacks with truck-like shapes.
Perhaps the lowered resale value due to an undesirable transmission type was enough to doom this car when something broke.
