2007 Mazda MAZDA3 Reviews, Pricing & Specs

Extremely reliable daily car. Does not chug e10 gas. Plenty of room for seats AND trunk space. I personally love the look of the hatchback better than its sedan. Has a slight sports look. Beautiful interior and exterior. Can be beat on and stand strong. Very aftermarket supported. 100/10 would recommend for a first car. The only thing that is worrying is that the rear fender/fender wells tend to rust easily, so if you have lots of snow and salt or gravel and rain, rust could be a potential problem. Deserves more than 5 stars.Aug 22, 2024

Great car for city drivers -- small, but comfortable. Zippy and fun -- and boy does it go fast. Cabin are first class and extremely comfortable for passengers. Even taller folks will be comfortable up front, and the driver will appreciate the standard tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel. And the rear seats in the hatchback fold down 60/40, which nearly doubles the amount of cargo roomJun 23, 2010

Had this car for 1 1/2 years, and enjoyed every bit of it. I like the build quality of the Mazda, very solid and feels more continental than Japanese in many aspects. The design of the exterior is still very fresh (mine was a facelifted version) despite it being introduced back in 2004. One of the more sportier looking sedan out in the market. However, I made the mistake of buying the 1.6L version, as the engine was indeed under-powered and consumption suffered. Overall a good car that I still miss sometimes. Very comfortable to drive, practical with large trunk space. Apr 16, 2009

Subtle, underrated car which doesn't disappoint, more so on the open road. Seems tame at first but the moment you let the cat out the bag, it pretty much takes care of everything else. Despite all of the above though, there are drawbacks but more in terms of maintenance as I recently found out. To get the most out of the car, you need the best tires on the market and who can argue, perfection loves company. Unfortunately they do come at a price which in the long-run is well worth it. Then again if you feel the need for a little fun, get some slicks for the rear for some oversteer excitement. All in all though, one of the most exciting cars I've drive with superb handling.Dec 25, 2008

One of the favorite cars i have ever driven here at work they are awesome generally the only problems we have with them is sometime the tire pressure light comes on for no reason and when people are to ruff on them the steering pinions in the back come loose and make a lot of rattling noise but other than that no problems my favorite thing about them is the shifter that goes up and down easy for taking turns an slowing like its a real clutch. also the interior is good i like having all the right buttons right there i don't have to look down while im driving i just reach over and switch stations or on some that have the controls on the steering wheel that's not even needed great car if i had the money i would like three!!Aug 12, 2008

I'm just loving it. Keep enjoy everyday! In compare to my red Sunfire, it's days & nights. No problem at all. Sport woman look, white and GT with sunroof. All equiped, except leather (but I don't like it, so). Very confortable, I can drive for hours in that car. Very quiet, enough power but not too much to have police againts me everyday. Spend a lot on gas, but who cares. Everyone has to put some gas into his car.Jul 31, 2008

It's not terribly fast, but handles pretty good, the hatchback came in real handy during my recent move, it can swallow a surprising amount of stuff. Good driving position, seats are height adjustable, steering wheel rakes and telescopes. It's very well equipped for the price, xenon HID head lights, Bose stereo, moon roof, leather, auto lights, auto climate control, auto wipers, alloy wheels, trip computer. Pretty fuel efficient, it's a manual and I'm averaging about 28 MPG right now.May 01, 2008

Originally got this car for my wife who's Jetta literally died, but that's another story. We really hadn't considered Mazda, but drove by the dealership, saw all the signs so figured why not? Wife, who doesn't like bigger sedans, got into this nicely appointed car and fell in love with it. It handled very well, good response, interior was well done. And then, after four months she handed the keys to our 19 year old son, who then totaled the thing. Hit a guard rail coming and going. Amazing thing was, he walked away with a minor scratch. That car looked like an empty beer can squashed by Godzilla. We promptly went out and bought another one. I've never seen my wife take care of a car so well in my life. Apr 29, 2008

It is impossible to summarize exactly what you get with this car when you purchase it. You would need a very big place to write it all down. The only amenity that I can think of that it DOESN'T have is automatic seats. It's not only roomier than my friends Mercedes-Benz CLS550, but the stereo is also better and able to play louder. Not to mention, it just FEELS solid.Apr 17, 2008

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.Mar 28, 2008

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.Feb 22, 2007
