2004 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member2911 Engine revs smoothly and freely to 7100 rpm. First gear is short, which is good for take-off, crawling in traffic, and acceleration off the line. |

2009 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member2822 Unbeleivable torque, fast pick-up, passing ability. This car is a true pocket rocket. I love the look on a Mustang/Charger/WRX/GTI/Civic or other car owners face as you outperform them. Driving this car automatically puts a big grin on your face! |

|
2009 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons A member in California, United States Very high level of power available and the push of the pedal. Smooth operation of turbocharger. Puts a huge smile on your face. |

2006 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons trevans Although only 160hp, with the 5spd manual the car is surprisingly quick. The shifter is among the better ones on an economy car. Plenty fast to get out of a tight spot or for a fun ride. |
|
2007 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member443 I have the S model which has a little more spunk. Still not what anyone would call a performance car. Much better than the Civic though. |

2008 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons sthomasdakota Any normally aspirated 4-cyl will have limited torque and hp. This car is no exception. Probably better than average. Good 5-spd manual transaxle. |
|
2007 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Spotter Rough changing gears in automatic (auto = best mileage) & changes at odd times - into 4th at 50 kph, but after gearing down to 4th to pass on hwy, will stay in 4th long after cruising at 120 kph b4 going back up to 5th. Told this is "normal"... |
|
2009 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member625 Not enough HP and Torque for hilly situations. |

2004 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member191 It has torque and sufficient horsepower, without sacrificing much in fuel economy. I regularly get 28 mpg with mixed city/highway driving. |
