Used 2005 Mazda 3 Review
Edmunds expert review
Good looks, strong engines and sharp handling add up to an economy car that feels anything but cheap.
What's new for 2005
All new for 2004, the Mazda 3 receives only minor changes for 2005. The four-door "i" model gets a new 15-inch wheel cover design, and Sirius Satellite Radio is now available on all models.
