From the moment I sat in the drivers' seat at the dealership and drove this car, I fell completely in love with my Mazda 3. And 6 years later, I still feel excited when I get in my car. We have not had any major problems over this time, so about once every six months I take it in for an oil change and general maintenance and we're good to go for another six months. I would definitely buy another Mazda in the future.

Sporty and Frugal

My 2014 Mazda3 Touring sedan with manual transmission was a hoot to drive, and got really nice MPG (27 city/41 highway). The styling, steering, handling, engine, and transmission were all fantastic, but it was tight inside, and with a good amount of hard plastic around the edges - though the dash was padded. Trunk and back seat were ok, and I really wish there was lumbar support for at least the driver’s seat; however, the blind spot monitoring and push button start were touch above. By 90 kmi I’d had the water pump and a rear strut replaced under warranty, and paid for a new set of brakes and tires. I hated the 8-bit looking infotainment pod, the speakers were crap, the ride was loud and somewhat stiff, but man, was it a fun car to just romp and fly around in (safely and efficiently)!

I always believe that Japanese's cars were the best . I have been taking care of my car with all maintenances. I replaced transmission fluid 6 months ago , car had 117000kms . 6 months later my transmission has a delayed from park into driver for 5 seconds . I was told by the dealer that my car needs a new transmission.

I love my Mazda 3! Although I do have some problems with the navigation system tripping out once in awhile I am driving I love how responsive it is.
