  Mazda 3s - 2005 Mazda Mazda3
  By Blue Jean - January 30 - 12:43 am

  Purchased for my 18yr old daughter. Researched various vehicles & test drove 3. This car by far is the best value for style, performance and confort/safety on the market. If unsure but on your list, take the time to get behind the wheel. I like it so much, I will be buying one for myself!

  I just bought it but I already love it - 2005 Mazda Mazda3
  By Jeff - January 29 - 11:16 am

  People are so in love with their cars and with this car Im no exception. I bought a base "s" -- no options at all -- and it is still a lot of car! Power locks, windows, tilt and telescope wheel, keyless entry, GREAT stereo, etc. And the engine is fantastic. You really need to be in above 4k RPMs before it really kicks in, but that is pretty normal for all them 2ish liter 4 cylinders that get max power aroun 6-7k RPM. And when it kicks in it really kicks. Keeping it in third around town and in fourth on the highway keeps the RPMs at a very responsive level. etc. etc. Also its quite roomy by small car standards, but I wouldt take a long trip with large men in the back!

  Would I buy this car again - you betcha! Out performs the Protege ( which was my first Mazda purchase), excellent acceleration, everything on the dash is convenient, plenty of room.
