Too bad we don't have this.

Too bad Mazda isn't selling the Premacy in US.
I kinda like this car.

That's correct, it's a minivan which size is between MPV and P5

yeah no kidding, it's already amazing that a Protege WAGON is selling so well in NA, it'll be a miracle for a MINI-Minivan to actually do well here.

that said, I've come to the conclusion that the MPV is the coolest minivan on the road, case closed

I read an article about this on this Brit car mag that I have a subscription to... it's basically a P5 with more headroom and a longer trunk...

Honda is bringing there version over here in 2004... it's called the Civic Stream.. but eh.. it looks like a cross between the new Si hatch and the MPV...

I dunno.. we have too many cross-over cars here... SUV...SUT...MPV...ABC's? eh.. too many....

But that's just my opinion.. haha

Ah....yes, the Matrix.

I almost got the Toyota Matrix too.
Before I bought my P5 a month ago, I was basically comparing P5 and the Matrix. The nice thing about Matrix is that they have the 4WD option. But in the end, the P5 out look beats everything.
However, I still think the Matrix look very good. Especially the Matrix with the silverish light blue color. Maybe when I sell my secondhand 94 Corolla, I will then get the Matrix.

I like them also. They're based on the Protege platform, as you can tell by the shape of the doors and use of the same trim on the interior. Mini MPV!
