Hi guys, I've been planning to buy a car for my personal use. This is going to be my first car. Will be using it to drive out of colombo every weekend about 250km(total trip) and during the week just as a daily driver to work 5-6km. I've looked at my options and Mazda 2 2015 hatchback with 1.5 skyactiv got my attention. Most of the Mazda 2s that are available seems to have been brand new imports by the agent and manufactured in Thailand, according VIN labels on the vehicle itself. But the import documents mention the country of origin as Japan. If someone can clarify these difference in the claims would be great. Also when I checked with the agent, they told me that there were no different grades imported. I've looked at the forum threads and couldn't find much information specific to this model, hence would like to get your opinions in regard to given below, 1. Reliability and known issues. 2. Maintainability and parts availability. and any other comments you may have towards this specific vehicle. Thanks.

Dear All, Is there any one using the new Mazda Skyactiv car and if so what is your experience with it in terms of performance (power vs fuel economy)? Agent claims that it is very good in gas mileage.
