05/15/08	2008 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member1791 Simply better than every other car at this price range, and many above it.

05/14/08	2008 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member1641 Really sharp-looking

05/14/08	2006 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member281 This is the car that the VW Jetta should have been. It is one of the nicest looking 4 door sedans I have ever seen. It is a relatively inexpensive, entry-level car, but Mazda went to great lengths to give it both the elegance and presence of a BMW.

05/14/08	2008 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member894 Very powerful
05/14/08	2007 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member388 Great interior. Nice plastics and feel..lots of great little touches (ex: LEDs that put a soft glow on the center console at night).

05/14/08	2007 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member514 eye catching
05/14/08	2007 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member321 The car has fantastic grip with seemingly endless limits, all with an excellent ride, IMO. The steering has a near perfect weight to it, though not as much feedback as the Protege I had before this.
05/14/08	2006 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member468 Smooth and quick. Tough to beat performance for this price and class.
05/14/08	2006 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member1420 Love "the hips" - rear wheel arches front grill
05/14/08	2007 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons A member in California, United States Fairly good styling on the hatchback. Rear bumper seems huge though.
05/14/08	2006 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member1788 the car has held up quite well (currently 30K miles) as all surfaces inside and out show little to no wear. The fit and finish (body panel fit, etc.) is something you might find on a much higher priced car
05/14/08	2008 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member1610 handles well, great input through steering wheel. much better than what i thought an economy car would handle.
05/14/08	2008 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member1486 Tight with good road feel. Corners very securely.
05/14/08	2008 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member1208 Beautiful interior design. Colors and gauge quality is great.
05/14/08	2008 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons A member in Ontario, Canada I like how powerful it is first and foremost. I also like how light and easy to manage the clutch is for such a powerful vehicle, and the 6 speed gear box always shifts smoothly and flawlessly.
05/14/08	2008 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member1671 Very sporty for the hatchback.
05/14/08	2005 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member1499 Very modern, nice curvy features, not like the typical american made car.
05/14/08	2008 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons zigzone Highest level reliability rating by Consumer Reports
