I was under the impression that the SkyActiv X engine would be in this years models. That plus the six speed manual would make for some happy members here.
Love to see the new Skyactive engine. I am hoping Mazda not going CVT and 6-speed automatic will not bring CVT like problems. And I am not quite impressed with the C pillar design. I am just happy with the old design.

Does he mean the expensive electronic actuator that's more reliable and responsive than any hydraulic unit?
Killmer also said Mazda makes the worst automatic transmission out of anyone. He's an idiot
Scotty Kilmer annoys me with his yelling into the camera. I can't watch his videos because of that.
Isn't Mazda one of the few that still use a conventional automatic? I haven't heard about issues with them when I was still working in a garage or more recently from my friend who works there.

Yes they still use automatics and they are very nice.
