Dave Hounddriver Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 Has anyone else, over 6 ft tall, checked out some of the recent model sub-compact cars? I am interested in a 2015 Mazda 2 as the reviews are great and its a super economical small car. Problem is there is no Mazda dealer nearby so I cannot sit in on to see how cramped it is for the driver. If I thought it was a good fit I would go to a larger city like Cebu where there are some available. I have checked out the Wigo and it is too cramped. I have checked the Eon and I just fit but I don't think its as good a car as the Mazda 2. Anyone with experience in these sub-compacts? How is the legroom for the driver, compared to other similar size cars. Mazda 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those used, 2015 Mazda 2s with about 10K miles on them are advertised online for about half the price of new. That is really unusual here as most cars keep their value much better than that. You will find them listed for between 300K and 370K pesos. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum Support Old55 Posted December 26, 2016 Forum Support Posted December 26, 2016 There may be a good reason for the used prices? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy79 Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 They're great little cars in the UK though keys are very expensive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerald Glatt Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 At 6'3" I have no problem with the Mazda 2 except the back seat. Unless you're to be a passenger no worries. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
