My Mazda3 is Great, but where's the Hideous, Massive Aluminum Spoiler?

Date of Review:  Jul 10, 2006
The Bottom Line: The Mazda3 is a great value and not to be overlooked.
Review: Two years ago I said I was going to buy a Mazda3 in a year, and that didn't happen. Although the plan never entirely disappeared, it did fizzle away. I still liked the car, but there were other venues that were in greater need of my funds than a new...

My Beamer......

Date of Review:  Dec 11, 2006
The Bottom Line: This is a great car. Too bad the colours ae boring )my Beamer was RED!!!)
Review: I write this review with mixed feelings. Two weeks ago, I drove my wife's brand new 2007 Mazda 3 Sport from the dealership and stepped out and thought, damn. As I never test drive the new cars I buy, I didn't know I was about to go into financial...

Great Compact Car

Date of Review:  Feb 1, 2006
Review: I love my 3! I drove lots of cars and did lots of research before purchasing this car. This is the first new car I've ever bought (all my others were used). This was the best purchase I've made. I live in a Mountain area, and this car shoots up the...

Mazda3 Sport Is In A Class Of Its Own

Date of Review:  May 6, 2006
The Bottom Line: Mazda3 Sport is the undisputed king of the economy car segment.
Review: In its third year of production, the Mazda3 has already accumulated a sizeable number of awards from automotive journalists. In 2004, it won "Best Sports Coupe Under $35,000" and Canadian Car of the Year. In 2005, it was Canada's fourth best selling...

What a ride

Date of Review:  Jan 7, 2006
The Bottom Line: Awesome car, best in it's class
Review: I bought a 2006 Mazda 3 Sport GT yesterday, and man, it's quite the car.. I originally went out looking a few weeks ago, and compared against a new Jetta, Civic, etc, but you can't really match the features with the Mazda 3 price.

I picked...

Review: It's a cheetah... no too slow... it's a skateboarder... no too cool... it's SUPER MAZDA! Yes it is! Mazda 3 will be my first positive review... I think...

Mazda has been known for fine Japanese garbage for years. Noone wanted a Mazda. Then...

Still Ahead of the Economy Car Competition

Date of Review:  Oct 14, 2005
The Bottom Line: Shopping for a compact car and lean a little more toward sporting sedans than economy compacts? Mazda 3 is a satisfyingly sporty sedan on an economy car budget.
Review: Shopped the Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic (including the '05 and '06 versions).

Drove both the Mazda sedan and the sport five door. Loved the power and engine note of the 2.3L in the five door I tried, but went with a 2.0L sedan to save...

Mazda3 5-door: A Miata with 4 doors and a dog compartment.

Date of Review:  Mar 6, 2006
The Bottom Line: This is THE affordable sportswagon for the driving enthusiast.
Review: The Mazda3 is winning every car mag's award for best small car. Is the adoration deserved? Yes.

This is the best small, affordable car for driving enthusiasts: the people who would drive a Miata if only they didn't have a kid / dog /...

Youthful, affordable, and luxurious

Date of Review:  Dec 29, 2005
The Bottom Line: Youthful luxury that's affordable and a lot of fun to drive. Zoom Zoom!
Review: I recently purchased a 2006 Mazda 3s Grand Touring edition 5-door. Although the entire process was laborious, and my salesman could not have been much worse, after a 4-week wait to get the car, the wait was actually worth it.

Before I...

Best Bet in small sporty cars

Date of Review:  Apr 9, 2007
Review: My Mazda 3 has 20,000 miles on it and I love it. Great look (4 door), snappy and precise handling, an interior better than many cars costing more. I went for the stick shift - very slick and precise to click through the gears and get the performance...
