Why the 2004 Mazda Mazda3?

Safety & braking

The brakes are part of the overall handling package, stops in a short distance (112 feet from 60 mph), supurb modulation, and excellent feel.

Exterior styling

Hatchback looks new and original after 4+ years. I still get compliments. This in a car that I get 28 to 36 mpg and can hold a weeks worth of camping gear.

Feature availability

Leather seating, sunroof, 6 disc CD, Xenon headlights, 6 airbags, ABS brakes w/ EBD.They add up to safety, comfort and convienience.

Interior styling

The interior was designed to be a sports car from the beginning. Nice guage package, red and blue illumination, design of the seats and instrument panel. Everything goes well together. Kitt car LED scan can be turned off.

Why Not the 2004 Mazda Mazda3?

Ride smoothness

This car is set up for handling, not for ride comfort. If you want smooth, buy a Civic, if you want a car that can run rings around a Civic, buy a Mazda 3.
