Love the new 3

I previously had a 2017 Mazda 3, which was a great car but lacking in power and with too much road noise. The new 3 Turbo is smooth and really powerful. The AWD puts the turbos power down very nicely and the new one rides smoother despite the torsion beam. The steering has been slowed down a bit and has slightly less feel than the prior generation, but the small difference is well worth the extra smoothness. Interior is fantastic and everyone who rides in it comments about how nice it is. I’d suggest Mazda focus on slightly more rear leg room.

Nice car

My son got this car. It is very nice with all the fun features. However there is no leg room in the backseat. Amd the ac is great for the people up front but the people in the back suffer. We drove 13 hrs and there was no way to get backseat cool without freezing front seat.. definitely needs ac vents in back of car and more leg room. The lane correction is nice but can be really aggressive at times. Lile if you forget to use your blinker. But nice car

Red leather! A stick!

Love it!!! White with a maroon red leather interior! MT! So fun to drive. Looks great! Smallish back seat and hatch space, but rarely a factor since I’m the only one in the car. Clean design and lux inside and out. So much better looking than the “better” Civic. Get one!

Performance, interior quality, handling, fuel consumption, power accessories are all great BUUUUUUUT that car has less than 3500kms on it and the oil lights on and sure enough it's down that much not what I'd expect for 48000 taxes in???
