Mazda 3 best in class! - 2010 Mazda Mazda3
By TLH028 - May 29 - 10:00 amThe 2010 Mazda 3i Touring (Auto) is a really fun car to drive. Its has a very tight feel and handles extremely well. Although the ride may be to firm for some the driver really gets a feel of the road. The styling both exterior and interior crush the competition, (Civic, Corolla, Colbalt & Focus). The 3 is a little bit small in the drivers seat and prob would not be comfortable for 62" or taller drivers. The quality and set up of the interior controls are outstanding. The funnest and most enjoyable car to drive in its class...ZOOM ZOOM

Better Than a Honda! - 2010 Mazda Mazda3
By Collette - May 19 - 9:26 pmI love this car! I was choosing between a Honda Civic sedan and this car and after test driving both at the same price I was so excited to buy my first Mazda after owning a previous Honda Civic.

Most fun Ive ever had behind the wheel - 2010 Mazda Mazda3
By JMZ3 - May 15 - 4:16 amThis is by far the most enjoyment Ive ever had driving a vehicle. I traded an 03 Mazda 6 for this M3 and have no regrets. The increase in horespower and better handling was apparent as soon as I took the car for a test drive. Highly recommended.

2010 Mazda3 Hatchback - 2010 Mazda Mazda3
By twebb - April 25 - 6:43 amGreat car for the money. It has good power and a hint of exhaust note that make it fun to drive and it handles well. The updated styling looks good, and the hatchback is convenient for hauling small loads. The only slight drawback is the fuel economy - Im averaging 24.2 mpg w/ 2500 miles driven. I suppose if it had 20+ less horsepower and was slightly smaller like the Civic it would be better. Ill take fun to drive and a couple less mpg.

Very Happy - 2010 Mazda Mazda3
By Roxy in Northern, VA - April 24 - 3:53 pmBefore buying this car, I shopped for over a year for the right car. Other vehicles I considered were Nissan Altima, Acura TSX, and Honda Accord. I am very happy with my Mazda. It is so responsive and fun to drive. I live in Northern, VA, where there is a lot of traffic. I am happy to say, I have used this car many times to get out of bad traffic situations. It accelerates quickly, even with a car full of people. Its so comfortable and stylish. My only gripe is that the horn sounds weak and I dont think the mileage is all that great. Overall, Im extremely pleased.

Even works for the family - 2010 Mazda Mazda3
By mmb - April 5 - 3:43 amWeve had our Mazda 3 for a little over 2 months now and we are very happy with our decision. We wanted something that was going to get good gas mileage and the Mazda 3 has lived up to that. We are constantly getting 30 mpg which is greatly improved from the 16 mpg we were getting in our SUV. We thought this would be a vehicle for commuting back & forth to work, but actually our 3 children, ranging in age from 14 to 2, fit in the backseat just fine (even with a car seat) so we use it for family outings too. It has great handling and acceleration.

Love my new Mazda3! - 2010 Mazda Mazda3
By L.A. Girl - April 4 - 8:46 amI reluctantly said goodbye to my 11- year-old Saturn after repair costs became too great. I would have considered another Saturn but I have concerns about the future of the company. Since I know nothing about cars, I spent a lot of time here researching. Consumer reviews for Honda and Toyota were mixed but reviews for the Mazda3 were great so I decided to start my test driving there. After my first test drive, I didnt need to test anything else. I drove two hours to the only dealer who had the iTouring in gunmetal blue. Im glad I did...the color is beautiful!

Powerless - 2010 Mazda Mazda3
By peace2008 - April 1 - 10:50 pmI just bought the 2010 Mazda 3 iTouring. It was a good decision as it is a very nice car. I have noticed that the power is not so hot. I cant think of anything else I would change. Maybe put some more durable interior materials - lots of plastic.

I love driving. - 2010 Mazda Mazda3
By Jin - March 27 - 5:10 pmI owned 2005 Mazda3 2.3 which was really good. I was eagerly waiting for the 2010 Mazda3 from last November. It has been upgraded on every aspect. It has enough hp and torque to enjoy a daily driving. My friend has Corolla, and she compared that boring Corolla to my new Mazda3. It is not even comparable. If you want to get a compact car or an entry luxury sedan, you should try new Mazda3. You wont be disappointed.

In A Class of Its Own - 2010 Mazda Mazda3
By Romanizer - March 11 - 9:53 pmTough to add to so many enthusiastic reviews. They are all correct. I have owned all sorts of cars and can tell you that this 3 is an amazing little machine. Sexy looks, stellar handling, zoomy power plant, lux/techy/sporty interior, chock full of technology. Plus, Mazda reliability. All at a ridiculously low price. Pssst, buy this car!
