After more than 9 years this car has needed zero repairs--never had anything this reliable. Not even squeaks or rattles. Only basic maintenance needed. Very sporty, quick, handles well, fun to drive, great gas mileage. We get 37-42 mpg on the highway, and about 31-32 mpg for combined driving. Rides a bit rough and road noise is a bit loud, and while the seats are very comfortable for a couple of hours or so they feel too firm on long trips, so not as great on very long trips, but 4-5 hours of driving in a day isn't too bad. Or maybe my butt is just too skinny, but my wife's skinny ass likes the seats just fine. I just wish the hatchback was more like a station-wagon shape as that deep long slope reduces cargo space, but we've traveled for a couple of weeks in it, and we don't travel light, so there is a lot of room.

I have had two Mazda Protégé 5's before purchasing a Mazda 3 and am still an owner of a 2003 P5. It was great timing as I was in the market for a new daily driver as 2014 was when Mazda 3 first came out with the new design. At that time, the SkyActiv engine had already been out a couple of years and I have had great experience with Mazda products in terms of reliability, so it was not a hard decision to go back to Mazda even though most of my friends and/family members were driving Civics or Corollas. Those are definitely great cars , but I wanted something that handles well, saves gas and looks cool at the same time. The Mazda 3 has not disappointed even as of today as the vehicle was purchased brand new almost 5 years ago. Throughout my years of ownership (M3 Hatchback I GT ~56K miles), I have only been to the dealership twice - once for a recall related to GPS map update or something while the second visit had to do with a the hydraulic belt tensioner leak which were both covered under warranty. The hydraulic belt tensioner was replace by the dealership but it started leaking again after another 10K or so. If anything, the tensioner leak is the only complaint that I have with the car. The Mazda infotainment system has also acted up a handful of times (frozen screen), but it would fix itself after restart. The most recent maintenance item was the rear brake pads which were replaced at 56k. I believe the rear driver-side pads were seized for some reason which caused premature wear as the front pads were still the OEM pads from factory with healthy amount of pads left. I could have fixed the issue earlier as the rear driver-side wheel was always covered with the most brake dust but I was too lazy to inspect the pads. The Mazda 3 has never left me stranded and has been a comfortable commuter. Everything in the car is still working perfectly fine as day one. My favorite part of the car is the blind-spot monitoring system. it's especially handy during pouring rains. The heated seats are also a plus. The infotainment system is intuitive and user friendly. I love the fact that the reverse camera's parking guide doesn't turn when you turn the steering wheel as a lot of cars on the market do (personal preference). The visibility is not as great as the older cars as the rear windows are smaller. The 2.0 liter engine is not powerful, but it's sufficient for what the car is built for, a gas saving commuter. The engine noise can be a bit noisy going uphill or accelerating with 4 passengers; however, there's plenty of power to get the car moving for highway merging at around 3k-4k rpm. The interior of the car is well built and cabin noise is well controlled. The materials used and fit and finish of the car is solid and probably one of the best in its class. Trunk space can be limited if you have a growing family (i.e. strollers...). Overall a great car! In August 2019, the Mazda 3 was sold to a family member and a 2019 CX9 was brought home. As of today (9/5/2020), at around 64k, the oem tires and the battery are the only items that will need to be replaced. My opinion on the car still has not changed. Great little car that looks great, feels great (interior), drives and handles well.

I like everything about mine, I get good mileage, it's fun to drive, etc. I have had zero reliability issues. Great styling. Great handling. Almost perfect, but not quite, IMHO, see below.
