Since purchasing my brand new Mazda 3 back in August of last year, I receive the occasional email fom Mazda- the usual stuff- service specials, newsletters, etc. Most of it I glance over and toss. Today I received the following email:

So...is this legit? I might do it just to see what becomes of it. I mean, we always complain about all the stuff new cars have they we think they oughtn't, and all the stuff they don't have that we think they ought to. At least this is sort of like actual voting, as opposed to standing on a virtual street corner and shouting.
The link, BTW, goes to what appears to be some sort of research firm. "Research Insights" or something.
