Hmm. Well, I have a problem with the nearest Toyota dealer. They're the ones trying to sucker Prius buyers with a 10% over sticker "market adjustment".

I drove the Mazda3 5-speed HB last week. It's a nice little car ... but off the short list. My experience is: single drivers try to "zoom zoom" my Z, or it's used as a loaded-down family-wagon. But the real issue was -- I couldn't stand that dealership. (Open Road Mazda, East Brunswick, owned by the same group we got the Acura from). There are two dealers closer, but they're both smaller.

Now when you line up the Fit, Cube, and Element, it's more like Goldilocks. I know both Honda and Nissan local dealers, but might buy out of the area to save a few $$$s.
