  Great ride - 2004 Mazda Mazda3
  By mcintire - June 16 - 2:00 am

  Having owned an Audi A4 for several years, Mazdas 3 feels very similar. A solid drive...doesnt feel like Im driving a compact. Plenty of muscle and a beautifully designed interior/exterior. Mazda really outdid themselves with this one. For the money, I cant imagine more in a vehicle.

  Fun to Drive - 2004 Mazda Mazda3
  By Bonnie Marshall - June 11 - 10:00 am

  Its a fun car to drive, with good handling and excellent acceleration. The radio and cruise control controls in the steering wheel are great. The back seat is quite roomy for a car this size. Like the automatic door locks when the vehicle is started. Feel its an excellent value for the money.

  Its time to give Mazda your undivided attention. The more I drive my Mazda3 the more I love it. I cant wait to see what the future holds.

  Best thing since sliced bread!! - 2004 Mazda Mazda3
  By stratman - June 10 - 2:00 am

  LOVE THIS CAR!! Test drove, Corolla, VW-Golf, BMW- 325i, Honda Civic-si, and Acura-RSX. The Mazda-3 beatem hands down...Especially in price. The Mazda-3 is powerful, quiet, roomy, comfortable, high quality build, sporty, fast, and FUN-FUN-FUN!! I love my music..but I find myself turning the sound system off because the sounds and vibe are that good! If youre car searching...stop. You wont find any better...regardless of the money!

  Quality at a great price - 2004 Mazda Mazda3
  By TSHEP - June 4 - 10:00 am

  I considered a civic but this car is better looking inside and out. Its got more power and designed better and I paid a thousand less. Its got a lot of little features that most cars at this price wouldnt dream of. I am averageing 33mpg and have gotten 38mpg on a trip. The car is tight and handles great. It also has plenty of room for its size.

  The car in very fun to drive and very comfortable for the price range. The 5 speed is responsive and suprisingly more powerful than I expected.

  Compared to my Audi - 2004 Mazda Mazda3
  By RGT - May 30 - 10:00 am

  I traded in my 1998 Audi A4 1.8 turbo for the new 2004 Mazda 3S sedan and dont miss the Audi. Thats how good this car feels, looks and drives. Dont get me wrong, the Audi with 106,000 miles on it is/was great (the cost of repairs werent). My new Mazda 3S (2.3 AT with ABS/side airbag package) is also great. It has the same "zoom" factor and handles just as well as the Audi. I am a bit surprized and very pleased. How did Mazda do it? And at this price? I highly recommend the Mazda 3.

  From Germany to Japan--Back to Mazda - 2004 Mazda Mazda3
  By H20SkiBuzz - April 28 - 2:00 am

  Overall the car is fun to drive, looks good and has amenities far behond its class. Being a "new" model, expect some kinks, like the front-end which pops and groans when turning.

  I LOVE MY NEW CAR!!! - 2004 Mazda Mazda3
  By ZeileLover - April 28 - 2:00 am

  I wasnt looking to buy a new car but was forced to after I totaled my old one. I only looked at the Corolla, Civic and the Mazda3 and for the money, this car was the best deal! Definitely more bang for your buck! Its a smooth ride and although when standing outside the car, it seems a bit noisy, inside, Sometimes I dont feel or hear anything! I keep thinking it stalled at the stoplight. (oh wait that was my last car! :-) I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a fun, zippy, cute ride! The 6 CD changer is great and the 6 speaker system is quite good. My 5 year old niece says this is the coolest car ever! I have to agree!
