Based on previous events, they will all be Auto. I am interested in driving the 6, and the MX-5.

[Mr Wilson]

Bah, already drove the 6 with an auto.

No Speed 3 and all Auto..

Mazda 2, 3, 5, MX-5, CX-5, 6, and CX-9

MX-5 was more fun than I thought. Didn't really need manual for that test drive since you're there for the handling.

[JonathanB]

I went to the event yesterday, and it was a lot of fun! I didn't want it to end so soon. I have to say the Mazda2 was one of my favourite rides! No one wanted to test drive the 2, so I volunteered at the back of the line. I'm very glad I did because the car thoroughly impressed me. Even the CX-5 felt like I was driving my 3 - surprisingly nimble. The CX-9 was my least favourite of the pack. The steering was sharp and responsive, but it felt like I was driving a tank. I think Mazda should just nix the CX-9 and focus its efforts on the CX-5.

Anyone who missed the event should definitely book it next time. I'd even go again. The only thing I disliked was that I got stuck giving an interview on camera. Anyone know where those videos are going? Hoping they don't release them to the public... :facepalm lol

[Neo]

The videos will be filtered and they'll pick some of the best ones to promote the brand. Don't worry about it too much.

The CX-9 is actually going to go through a SkyActive treatment soon. So it'll get better. It's the biggest vehicle in the lineup and it's still a body on ladder frame construction. Which is probably why it didn't feel so right.

The Mazda2 is a hidden gem. I was very impressed with it when it first came out. Alot of people don't even look at it because of their own reasons. But if you're a little open minded, you'll see it's a great little car.
If you liked this version, you'll definitely like the new version that just made its debut.
The 2 never really sold well because at the price it was coming in, people were moving into 3's instead. But I think with this new redesign, you'll start to see more 2's on the road together with its bigger brother the 3.

I'm already seeing a lot of new 3's on the road. Not to mention a fair share of 6's.

[Dynames]

Went this morning 8am with a buddy (who drives a subaru), even he was pleasantly surprised by the mazda lineup in terms of quality.
Tried pretty much everything besides the cx-9 and the mazda5.

The mazda 2 was definitely the most surprising of the lineup, I knew the handling was amazing to begin with but the car was a joy to throw around the course. I was surprised how much more comfortable the seats were too in the 2 compared to my 2012 3

The mx-5 I would say is what I expected.

[S.F.W.]

Agreed the 2 was a blast to drive. Mx-5 was pretty good, the 6 also really impressed me how it handled the course.
