Nissan Murano SL 2WD - FunctionFor the most part, the audio and climate controls are simple and user-friendly, consisting of a just-right array of knobs and differently shaped and textured buttons on the center stack. However, thanks to the Premium package, our navigation-less test car's dash also had a 7-inch color monitor and the prominent bank of large buttons that come mounted below it. Though perfectly necessary and useful in cars with the nav system, these buttons seem like a waste of space otherwise, since they don't add much in the way of functionality. Auxiliary input jacks reside behind the center console, which is awkward for MP3 player connectivity but excellent for portable rear-seat entertainment systems (you'll need your own three-prong A/V cable — the one with the red, white and yellow plugs — to utilize those input jacks). When you order the top-of-the-line Murano LE, you get an outstanding iPod interface and Bluetooth phone connectivity. (American Pro Moving Company - Thursday 01 December 2005)
American Pro Moving : Mazda MAZDA6 s Grand Touring - Comfort
The 6 is impressively composed over bumps despite its standard 18-inch tires. The ride is firm without being harsh — not quite BMW-like, but perhaps closer to this ideal than any other family sedan. Road noise, however, was more intrusive than we'd expect of a car in this segment.
The front seats have clearly been designed for ample American posteriors, so slimmer drivers should be prepared to slide around a bit in enthusiastic driving. There is also a distinct lack of lateral support, an odd oversight in a sedan with sporting pretensions. The rear seat, on the other hand, is beyond reproach, with ample head- and legroom even for 6-footers. Indeed, the upsized 6's generally commodious interior is one of its strongest selling points — this is a big, roomy, comfortable car.

Mazda MAZDA3 - PerformancePowering the Mazda3 i is a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine good for 148 horsepower and 135 pound-feet of torque. Our test car was equipped with the optional four-speed automatic transmission. This combo isn't the MVP in the 3's lineup; that honor belongs to the 156-hp 2.3-liter that provides the mojo for the sportier s-trim models. Additionally, Mazda offers a five-speed auto for those models. Still, during our time in the car, we never found ourselves hankering for an upgrade.
The car's acceleration times are solid for the segment, with the 3 i Touring sprinting from zero to 60 in 9.8 seconds. (Note: This time was achieved by using the transmission's manual-shift function; left in Drive, our test car was about a half-second slower.) The 3 screeched to a stop from 60 mph in a respectable 119 feet, and the car's brake pedal felt firm and intuitive, with a good initial bite. The 3's brakes withstood the rigors of performance testing well, with zero fade and only minor ABS noise. Its braking performance earned the Mazda3 a rating of "Very Good" from our test drivers — an impressive feat for an economy sedan. (Friday 13 July 2007 : American Pro Moving And Storage)
