Reviews Summary

The greatest criticism that can be leveled against Mazda's Mazda3 is that it is small inside. Even for a compact car. If that’s not a problem for you, then you’re going to love this fantastic automobile.

Reviews Summary

Has the world moved beyond the full-size family sedan? The answer might be yes. Considering that a Chevrolet Impala provides just a few inches of extra space here and a few cubic feet of additional trunk room there, but at a cost in terms of purchase price and fuel economy, it's hard to justify a big car’s existence. Yet, the Impala exists, and within its segment, it is absolutely worthy of consideration.
