You're Wasting Your Time Driving Anything Else! — The Mazda 3 comes with eveything you could ever want in a car. The 3's looks turns everyone's head when you drive by. Your friends will wish they had one. You'll be confident entering the highway as you accelerate smoothly with torque to spare. The 3 handles with quick response to your every demand especially when taking turns at above average speeds. The mazda 3 is equiped with ABS breaking that comes in handy when having to come to a sudden stop which will not lock up your breaks causing you to skid out of control. The interior of the mazda 3 is very impresive with its seek design and carefull attention to leg and head room. The seats are designed to keep you snugged in during aggressive driving and loose when cruising around town. Has a 25-31 mpg on the highway and 21-24 mpg in the city.

Mazda 3 Sedan — The seating position is a little bit high if you compare to the height at which the dashboard is located, makes you feel really tall. The transmission is great, short gear shifts, very accurate when shifting gears. Acceleration is great (2.0), handling even better, suspension is just wonderful. Very fun to drive, I wasn't able to test it thouroughly but I think it's a great car. Maybe a little expensive if you compare it to other small sedans out on the market, but I would totally recommend this car to anyone.

Quick, reliable,sporty, and has a ton of storage space. It's a five door!

Light weight causes it to be pushed around in stiff cross wind.

Great Little Hauler — Nothing I don't like. Reliabllity is awesome! This car has performed every function we have asked of it. It has lugged us to Florida three times and was packed solid. Mazda's are strong, well built cars. You won't be disappointed!

Excelent Car — I like the overall acceleration, and breaking, i don't like its torque it needs more if you ask me. I also don't like the fact that its ride height, its to low and were i live the streets don't help this fact. But its really fast, has a very good acceleration, is comfortable, very stable and has good gas mileage.

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Smooth running and built quality. Love the tiptronic gear box!

Simply Love It!!! — Had a VW Bora Manual previously, obviously loved the car. Though I should say with standard 2ltr enjine pickup is pretty slow (from complete stop). With Mazda 2ltr I don't see this issue at all:) Just enjoying it! Its tiptronic gear box is commentable for those who loves manual driving pleasure.

2007 Mazda 3 — I love my Mazda 3 it's very sporty and it is black. Mazda 3 drives well and has unreal power when you need it. Mazda 3 is really economic on petrol. Mazda 3 has 6 stacker and has ipod so can listen to your tunes as you cruise. UNREAL car.

Suspension, Drive Train, Euro-sytle, Driver comfort adjustments, Horizon headlights, MPG, Trunk and lid, Able to Tune and Trick Durability in collision (yep, happened) Bang For The Buck!

Cons

That stupid "Wood strip" should match the color of the car. Road noise (expected with price range), rear seat leg room.

Zoom-zoom In The Motor City. — This car has won me over and away from domestic gas hogs. True red is the sharpest color in mazda's line up and turns heads. Mine is a 5 speed trans with 2.0 DOHC, a winning combination. Around the Detroit area this car is nimble enough to avoid all the pot holes and quick enough to manage a "Michigan Left" on Woodward during the rush. Buy this car and don't be afaid to rip into it... you won't be disappointed. As far as Interior, while it is comfy, keep in mind that it is an entry level sedan. There is that "Plastic-Feel" to closing the door but very smart lay out and the little extras make up for it.

Drove It, Loved It, Now I Own It! — The Mazda 3s GT gives you more for about 21K than any other car, period. It is a pure pleasure to drive, slow or fast, and the car's looks are aggressive, yet soft so that it appeals to both genders. And man, can it handle! What an amazing suspension system. The car corners like if it were on rails! And the braking is eye-popping! The acceleration is decent, and feels great anywhere above 3000RPM. Definitely zoom zoom worthy! Again, we're only talking about 21K here. As far as comfort and safety goes you can check on the mazda website, since the list never ends. Just know that there are airbags all around the car so that in case of accident you end up envelopped like in a little cocoon. The leather is awesome, with front seat warmers, climate control, computer trip, Bose sound, wheel controls, mp3 player attachment, etc... the list goes on and on. Well, to me it was a no brainer: I bought one! In this segment the Mazda 3s GT has NO competition.

Pros

the Mazda is a great on fuel economy, Especially highway mile. much of the miles have been highway. it is a nice looking Hatchback, The best handling car I have ever owned. the engine is spunky and quick. Very low maintenance, other than regular maintenance and tires. Has good Bridgestone performance tires, and handles well in snow and wet.  Comfortable car for travel nsd great handling

Cons

Not a family car and our family is growing, we hate to get rid of it it is to small for out growing family

Clean — Really no dislikes. I did a lot of research before buying it most of the review i saw were complimentary , not only the Mazda 3 sport hatchback but this individual automobile. Great handling, acceleration and braking. The gas mileage is excellent plus a very attractive car, just to small for our needs right now.
