Does the base model have AWD? You're going to make me go to Mazda's website? I look to you for answers, GRM!

If it is in my budget when I need something new, this is top of the list.

We tested another of Mazda's new CX-5s, this time with a manual transmission. It felt good to have three pedals in a new SUV; Rowing your own gears further improves this already great car. Ours was a base model with no options, placing its MSRP at $21,490.

The icing on the cake is the gas mileage: We averaged 35 miles to the gallon in mixed driving, which is far better than most of the small cars hanging around our office.
