I have a 2017 Mazda3 hatch...overall it has been a good car until recently. I was driving home last week when I heard a big explosion. I thought I blew a tire but it soon became obvious my sunroom blew out. I brought my car in to the dealership and they told me it was hit by a rock (moon rock)? Still under warranty but too bad! I was then told that the sunroof is non tempered glass....hmmm...this is a low car and I have already replaced the windshield and have several windshield nicks. Why non- tempered? I will not buy a 3 again...too many issue...loved the zoom zoom, but too low and too many issues.

I looked around for months at different cars, this model caught my eye and was very happy with the research on safety and fun driving. Love that some many extras come with the car. Only thing I was surprised that navigation was not included. Other than that very happy with the car. It's a great, fun car to drive and the gas mileage is a win, win for us.

The car is nimble, rides well, and is comfortable. Rear seat access and comport are decent, as is storage space. We're shopping for modern driver assist features and this car's are the best so far - in particular the lane departure warning offers the choice of steering wheel shaking (my favorite) as well as two sound modes (tone and "rumble") with three volume levels where-as other makes we've considered offer just one sound at a low level, easily drowned out by road noise. The MT and clutch are great and though I prefer MT in general, the AT version performed very well and I'd be happy with either. This car is on our short list. (It will be replacing an older and much loved Jetta diesel with MT, our other cars are an E30 series BMW with MT and Subaru Outback with AT).

I previously owned VW GTi and Honda Accord before moving to the Mazda 3 GT. Mine is fully loaded with white leather seats. The car handles really good, especially around corners, compared to the competition. Also the insurance is way cheaper compared to the civic and The corolla in Ontario. The gear shift is almost seamless and has no lag. Reliability is awesome so far and Has no Body rust for a 4 year old car in Ontario. On average I get 7L/100Km on 65% highway drive between home and work. But my only concern is the front seat. I am 5’7” but I find the seats very uncomfortable. My Sitting posture is normal unlike so many who like to recline their seats too much and stretch their hands completely while reaching for the steering. The head rest is pushing my head forward too much and the lumbar support is not enough. My cousin who is 5’9” was also having the same complaint meanwhile 2 of my other friends who own the same car has no problem with it. This could be a problem to a small number of people like me. But overall a great car to own.
