I drive a 2005 Acura TSX manual 6-speed with Nav. I LOVE it. I think I'm up to 40,000 miles and I got in in June 2005. If price is not a problem, go with the Acura, you won't be disappointed. Besides, how many old 1990's Mazda's do you see around in decent shape. Now how many Acura Integra's and especially Acura Legend's from the 1990's? It's a Honda engine so it's good for 200,000+ miles. Just be prepared to pay the difference in gas cuz the Acura s-type engine requires 91 octane (89 is OK, but 87 knocks). But for quality, Acura by a long shot.
