It's extremely illegal to have a DVD video screen within view of the driver. No way in hell is Mazda going to change it; no way will any other manufacturer sell a nav system in North America that can play videos.

Don't buy a sports car for good mileage. It's just unrealistic IMO.

Sound system is adequate. Calling it crap is unduly harsh.

Boxes?

What about all those rappers with tvs in their rear view mirrors and stuff??

Yeah there are some problems with the car, but this appears to be only on lemons. So far known problems are clutch problems, and engines dying, and window sills falling off(but thats not really a problem). Other than that the car is pretty problem free.
