| Price of the Mazda Mazda3: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Well priced, very reasonable, plus they often have 0% financing. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 263hp 2.3L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Compared to the Rallyart Sportback and the WRX wagon, you get a lot for your money. |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 167-horsepower 2.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Lot of features available for the price ... got nice leather seats for less money than I had in my Toyota SUV. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 167-horsepower 2.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
This car is dirt cheap, even with a fair amount of options it comes out to be in the low 20s. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 167-horsepower 2.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Great value for price. |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
When doing my research prior to purchasing a new vehicle, the Mazda very quickly rose to the top as the value leader in the segment. It offers a ton of higher-end standard features, such as auto headlgihts, rain-sensing wipers, and bluetooth standard for a price lower than most of its competitors. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 167-horsepower 2.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Super cheap. |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 156-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Very cheap... I bought an 09 brand new off the lot that was fitted with 18" chrome rims and Mazdaspeed exhaust and cold-air intake. All of that was added from the dealer and it still only cost me $360/month. And that is in CANADA...Unbelievable deal |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 263hp 2.3L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Affordable car compared to comparable performance vehicles. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
It was a better value and deal. |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 263hp 2.3L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
When I bought the vehicle, I felt like I got a lot of car for the money - especially in the performance department. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 263hp 2.3L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
As far as bang for the buck, $22,205 gets you a brand new serious pocket rocket with surprising comfort, utility, and good looks as well. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 156-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
CHEAP! |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Low and reasonable. Best bang for your buck. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 263hp 2.3L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Best bang for the buck among competitors. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Decent pricing, but still higher than Hyundai. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 156-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Excellent value for the money. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Price/option was a win over the Civic. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 156-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The price was great which is why I bought it. The GT is a great deal. I got S-Plan pricing, so it was an even better deal. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 263hp 2.3L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Normally, performance comes with a big price tag; not this one. |
| 2006 | 4dr Hatch 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Mazda has priced the mazda 3 to be competative with other cars in the same class. |
| 2006 | 4dr Hatch 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Competitive price for Japanese made car |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
A new, well equipped S model comes in well below $20000. This compares well with other cars in its class with similar features and performance. |
| 2006 | 4dr Hatch 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The vehicle is priced very well in its segment considering its strengths and overall quality. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
It cost slightly less than a contemporary Civic or Corolla, but offered vastly better performance, handling, and features for the money. I found it comparable to an Acura TSX, for $10,000 less. |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
I was able to purchase my car with ABS, side airbags, auto trans, sunroof, 6 speaker stereo, 17" wheels, the aforementioned nice interior, and 2.3L motor for under $20k, which seemed like a good value to me. |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Dealer agreed to what I was offering which was way too less :) |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
they were low |
| 2004 | 4dr Hatch 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Priced well for the value, especially used. |

| 2012 | 4dr Hatch 155-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
The price difference between this and the Elantra is a few thousand dollars when looking at features. When adding extended warranties, the gap widens. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 167-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Decent value, but too expensive considering the drivetrain problems I have experienced. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 167-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Another dealership would not even consider discounting the 2010 Mazda 3, only offering incentives on remaining 2009 models. |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 156-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
high price of car and interest |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 156-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Discounts are harder to come by than other brands, particularly domestic automakers due to the popularity of the 3. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 263hp 2.3L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
I have no complaints about price or payments. Car is best buy for the performance and a blast to drive. Overall cost may be excessive for some if not interested in handling and performance. Also, car requires premium fuel. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Price was too high for the features that came with it |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
It certainly cost less than the TSX, but for the $3-5k difference, I got a LOT more than that value in performance, handling, features, craftsmanship... This was one of my biggest deciding factors. |
| 2006 | 4dr Hatch 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
It came out more than 5k higher than the Elantra, cash purchase price. (My wife and I always pay cash). |

| 2011 | 4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
15,100 as a starting point for a 5 speed base which now comes with cruise!!! Why spend extra for the sport all you get is a spoiler, fog lights and alloy rims (1700.00 more ) Plus I got .90% financing. Thank you Honda!!! |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Fair price for a Honda |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The payments are affordable and Honda Finance is easy to access for online payments. |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
It was under 20k, but more expensive than the similar models from other manufacturers. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Paid MSRP for base fit, used honda finance, with low down payment my monthly payments are $240 (60 months). Not bad for a new car. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I only considered cars that would cost $20,000 or less, including tax and fees. My Fit was less than $17,000. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I only consider cars that I could purchase for $20,000 or less, including tax and fees. My Fit was under $17,000, including tax and fees. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
cheap for a new car. My payments are only $250 a month. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
This car was a great value for the money. We could have paid less for a similar hatchback, but I don't feel we would have gotten the safety or reliability of the Fit. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Much lower total price than H.Civic or Accord EX. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
It was a reasonable price and the dealer gave a low interest rate on payments. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
We felt that we got a lot of features for the cost and are very happy with the price we paid. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Cheaper than other cars with comparable cargo capacity. |
| Price of the Honda Fit: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2013 | 4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Honda seems to be relying very much on its brand image to justify the high price for this car. The older design felt premium if austere on the inside. This newer iteration feels gimicky but has a slightly higher feature level. But the fit and finish is fair and totally unbecoming of a Honda. Base level models have poor seat fabrics. And the car (any version) feels tinny and flimsy overall for the money being paid. This car should cost $13000 to $ 15000 max. Buying a fit over $15K seem to be counter-intuitive as there are a lot of cars out there that offer much better value for the money. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Base price was less than the Scion xD but by the time the extra packages were added it was more. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
More expensive than the xB for less standard features and room. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Hard to find inexpensive and used. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Price was very high as compared to the Yaris when I test drove it. The low end model was not available at the time. |
