Jim,

Avoid Mazda; I have had two, had RFI issues, and Mazda was one of the few 
makers who refused to cooperate with an ARRL request for information in a 
fairly recent study of the mobile RFI problem.

Mazda: 90% of the best engineering I've seen, and 10% of the worst.  Next 
car may be a Nissan.

Try this, too:  http://www.arrl.org/tis/info/carproblems.html

Pretty much sums up every maker's take and attitude on this, but it's 6 
years out of date.   Better than nothing.
