After owning the car for a few months I can confidently say it’s a great car. Not a good for long road trips but manageable. Is good for city driving and for blasting down the highway at fast speeds. The interior is not as bad as people make it out to be. If you take good care of it, the dash and interior will remain nice (obviously) The only complaint I have is after using the handbrake for so long it has become loose? The hand brake still works no problem but it wiggles from side to side if it’s off. The car has a good sound system and can handle heavy base or just loud music. Good car, drives and handles well.
Best car ever!

I purchased my green Mazda 2 (2011) in 2014. In 2023 it now has over 250k kilometres on it, and it doesn't cost me a dime to drive except for the normal costs due to maintenance. Never, ever has this car let me down. I'm just getting the front brakes done this year. First time ever. Get lots of comments on this lovely green colour.

Great car. Bought it with 104,000 miles, now have 144,000 miles. I bought it with an acceptable mecanical condition, that needed very much maintaining and changing parts. But again, bought it pretty cheap. The car runs very great. I have the automatic, yes it has long shifts and it's not the fastest or most responsive in the freeway, but going at about 70 mph or below no problem, in the city is where it shines. I have good driving habits, not a turtle but also rarely accelerate to the red line. It gets me about 29 mpg avg, which is great for a 4 speed with 144,000 miles, original engine, original tranny, and I would say I drive 50/50 city freeway. It has made 7 12 hr trips (i leave to go to college), and has been in rough roads. GREAT CAR. Just give it good maintenance! Oil changes, TRANSMISSION OIL CHANGES, air filter, clean the MAF, change the spark plugs every 3-4 years, and you'll see that this thing is good. Downsides: Obviously the size, but I would say given what you know you are buying, the suspension. I got it with a worn out suspension, and I've replaced all parts (struts, shocks, ball joint, linkage, and even tie rods) with good brands (either oem, moog, bilstein). Car handles great, but in rough roads you will still always feel everything. It using small tires also has to do with this. And since it's an older car, plastics aren't very stable now, so on imperfections you will hear and feel it wiggle or rattle.

Sure, 100 hp is not a lot, and it (automatic) can be a little funky with the gear changes. Normally, you may experience a slight latency between hammering your fit down and the engine response. THAT BEING SAID— even in the automatic, you can drive it like a quick manual. Turning off overdrive functions like it's sport mode, giving way WAY more pedal response and increasing the rev limit. Cons: excludes the highest gear, so to really drive the 2 with some spirit on the automatic, be ready to read the engine and switch overdrive off/on depending on the gear. It makes even the auto very involved and really tons of fun. As previously mentioned, the steering responsiveness is so sporty and precise, it made me second guess whether it was electronic or hydraulic. Unlike many modern cars, it isn't *too* soft, and gives you a go-kart-like driving experience. It could use a little more power, but frankly, this obsession with through-the-roof power numbers comes at a loss of the small joys of everyday driving. Where a 500hp mustang can be a blast at the track, this little car can make trips to target or on some local backroads a blast. It grows on you and the more you drive it the more you become infatuated with the experience, the look, the quirks. I have gotten this thing over hills and around corners on some country roads at 80-90mph and it felt like it could do more. Maintenance is cheap and the car rarely complains. I bought mine at 87k miles for 4k, have absolutely thrown it about, driven across the country several times, and even installed a hitch and pulled a small boat for 2000 miles. I have performed every kind of odd test you can imagine, and I can say I would buy it again.

Automatic transmission is terrible

The car is great, but NOT with an automatic tranny. I would have bought the stick but my wife can't drive a stick. I miss my Echo, that was the best car I've ever owned. The ride is fine. But getting out into traffic is dangerous. The acceleration is very laggy. There's a delay. Going around corners is sketchy because throttle control is a guessing game. You step on the gas and it's a crapshoot what's going to happen. There's no gradual acceleration, it hits - reminiscent of a 2-stroke dirtbike. The cruise control buttons are my least favorite of all the types I've had. The fuel economy is not what I'd expect from a tiny car. The driver seat is all the way back and I'm 5'8".
