2008 Mazda Tribute
In a market swarming with SUVs that are oversized or a real handful to maneuvre, the Mazda Tribute is an exception - an SUV with the soul of a sports car. The Tribute GS, for example, combines go-wherever-do-whatever SUV versatility, with the spirited performance of a 200-hp, 3.0L V6, an electronically controlled 4-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive.

Equally invigorating, but more economical, is the 153-hp, 2.3L I4 engine with standard 5-speed manual transmission or new optional 4-speed automatic transmission. Complimenting Tribute's precise rack-and-pinion steering is a fully independent suspension system that delivers crisp, agile handling.

A trait you'll appreciate whether you're slicing through city traffic, hustling down a mountain road or swinging into a tight parking spot.
