I’ve owned almost every model of mazda, I’ve had 0 issues with them. They are just as reliable as Toyota. The mazda 2 is outstanding for the cost so is the yaris. Sure it’s slow, but it’s light, fun, great on gas and very reliable. If you can get one in manual it’s a proper hot hatch. If my tacoma ever died, I’d buy a used Mazda 2 or Yaris asap and not worry about a car payment.
I can vouch. Owned 6 Mazdas from the 3 to the 6. Reliable vehicles. My parents, my sister and her husband and I switched from early 90s Toyotas to mid 2010s Mazdas. Now we’re just all over the place with brands. I’m back in Toyota product, Lexus GS currently. I had 4 other Lexus after my Mazda. I really do miss my 6 though. Great quality, very good fit and finish and a reliable powertrain that isn’t a ford influence. Soft touch panels everywhere in the 6. I sat in a Camry and it’s hard touch plastic throughout.
