Used 2010 Mazda 3 s Sport 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl 5A) Consumer Reviews
best in class
After consider all the different entry level sedans i decided on getting the Mazda 3S, and i couldn't be happier. The car is very responsive, and the suspension is tight like a tiger. Fuel economy could be a little better, but 20mpg in the city is not bad. The lights are bright, and the interior is very ergonomic and roomy. Looks and drives like a car worth 10k more.
Fun Little Car
The Mazda has been a fun car to own. I have driven to Las Vegas and Arizona within the past few weeks and it has performed great.

I will help you decide..Buy it!
I've only had the mazda3 several days and I am very impressed. I was originally looking into the Civic and Corolla just for a commuter, but the exterior and interior style of the Mazda3 really caught my eye. It handles beautifully and you get a lot of car and options for the price. Many of the "expert" reviews indicate the ride is stiff, but that is just opinion. It's not a stiff ride. It's a nice tight sporty suspension that gets excellent mileage, even with the larger 2.5.
Follow Up (2nd review)
This is my second review on my Mazda S 2.5L auto. I think "everyone" should know this as I did not in my first report. I get City 19 mpg at "best". The most fuel I can put in the tank is 12.5 gallons in a 15.9 gallon tank and that's when the car has run out of gas. The dealership nor Mazda can tell me why I can only go 223 miles on one tank of gas though the car's computer estimates 364 miles at fill up. The Mazda Consumer hot line is worthless and a waste of time. If I had it to do over again I would have bought a Civic b/c this 4/5 day stop at a gas station is a total disappointment as was the dealership's and Mazda's response to fix the problem, other than that the car is fun to drive.
A Wonderful Car with Loads of Extras
I've only had my car for a week but so far I am real pleased and have no remorse. It really does feel like a small luxury car with all the features and stylings. I cant wait to drive it when I'm sitting at home. I never drove the i version, but the larger engine has lots of zip, no problem passing cars on the road
