This Year's Model Updates:

The 2007 Mazda 3 sees a number of changes. Although these include a minor exterior refresh involving mainly the taillights, most are more functional. Now standard on all Mazda 3s are a tire-pressure monitor, an auxiliary input jack for the stereo, a rear-seat center armrest and an additional power point in the console. A stability control system becomes available on the Touring and Grand Touring trims.

Pros:
  • Athletic handling, refined engines, strong brakes, sharp styling, top-notch build and materials quality, hatchback utility.
Cons:
  • Top safety equipment either optional or on higher trims, tight rear legroom, so-so fuel economy with 2.3-liter engine.

  • Its a great car - 2007 Mazda Mazda3
    By -

    Ive driven this car for 6 months now and I still look forward each day to drive it. It looks good, rides great and is truly fun to drive. It is very agile on the road which is especially helpful in highway traffic. Also, this car is really easy to park compared to other cars Ive owned. I would highly recommend the MAZDA3 wagon to anyone.

  • Between Civic and Mazda3 - 2007 Mazda Mazda3

    The ultimate factor that made me choose the Mazda3 over the Civic was the hatchback utility and cuteness factor. I love the small and zippy feel of the car. Good size for me and not many people in my area have a Mazda3 so its nice to be different on the road. The telescoping and tilting steering wheel is nice. As is the lumbar support. I didnt upgrade my audio nor have a sunroof, so its basic but definitely fun to drive.

  • WOW, I love this car - 2007 Mazda Mazda3

    i just got this little ball of fire 3 days ago and oh man this is the most fun Ive ever had driving a car.

  • Dangerous Gauges - 2007 Mazda Mazda3
    By -

    Speedometer gauge is in beautiful gauge cluster. Unfortunately speedometer is recessed so far and covered by shadow, it is impossible to read at speeds up to 50 mph. It can be read only by bending down deep and losing view of the road. There should be a recall and improvement. This situation is so dangerous, I intend to notify the TSB.

  • Good Car But Minor Tweaks Needed - 2007 Mazda Mazda3
    By -

    I bought my brand new Mazda3 S GT in Black. First off, there were 2 chips in the hood that went down to the bare metal. They replaced the hood which I am thankful for. Today, while cleaning my vehicle I noticed a rock chip on my windshield the size of a pin head. Great car, but it seems to be easily prone to rock chips. I had a 99 Camry, and had many rocks hit my windshield, and never a chip. Now I have to pay 60 dollars to have the chip filled with no guarantee that it will last. I hope Mazda strengthens their windshields on future models, but overall this is a classy little car with a BMW 3 series look to it.

  • Beautiful, sporty, and inexpensive - 2007 Mazda Mazda3
    By -

    I bought the Mazda3 because I thought that its price was a bargain, and because Mazdas have a good reputation for reliability and good handling. The car has delivered in every respect. One thing I hadnt planned on was how nice looking the car is. Mine is red, and people constantly comment on how nice the car looks. It has a nice stance and good lines. Im a fairly big guy, and I fit into the car easily. The seats slide very far back and there is a lot of headroom. I strongly recommend this car to anyone in the market for a smaller car.

  • Best car for the money by far - 2007 Mazda Mazda3
    By -

    Purchased this car as a commuter: 90 miles round trip up the canyons. Power is great and gas mileage is amazing. We average 35mpg climbing 2500 feet to get back home. We looked at the Corolla and the civic and there was no comparison. We went with the Mazda because of reliability, power, and gas mileage. It is also a much better looking car. This is our second Mazda, we still own the first: a 1990 Miata with 100K miles on it.

  • Just Amazing! - 2007 Mazda Mazda3
    By -

    This car really lives up to the mazda saying of Zoom Zoom. With all the features I could ever want in a car the mazda 3 surpassed all of my expectations. The 2.3 liter engine is quick. The throttle response time is quicker and when you want to go fast the only thing standing in your way is traffic. This vehicle is not only fast but it has a beautifuly designed interior. The handling is amazing, and so is the ride. The bose sound system is the best Ive owned, and the heated seats are great. Overall the Mazda 3 is a car that will continue to leave its drivers in awe even after the drive.

  • Our Mazda 3s experience - 2007 Mazda Mazda3
    By -

    Have only positive things to say about our 2007 Mazda 3s. Knock on wood, we have not had any major issues, once standard scheduled maintenance. Perfect for hauling all the kiddos gear around with us. For the low price point I think we got good value.

  • 2007 Mazda 3 - Awesome! - 2007 Mazda Mazda3
    By -

    Purchased a new 2007 a couple of months ago. We researched other vehicles and found this to be a ton of car for the money. Well built, great looking and fun (very fun) to drive. It looks like a small BMW and drives a bit like one too.
