Mazda Mazda3 2003-2018Change

Decent storage space, fun to drive even for long trips. May not be as fast as the Subaru Impreza WRX but has plenty of get up and go. I'd happily buy another Mazda.

I have this car for 5 years now but is the best car I ever had. Drives great and never have any problem. I think Mazda are the best well built car. Have a good stereo. I recommend this car to anyone that need good car.

I bought my 2011 mazda 3 in November or 2016 at a mazda dealership with less than 80,000km on it. I love the pep this car has driving around the city as well as great highway car. I drive through mountain passes multiple times a month and this car has no hesitation on getting up the big hills for its size!

Love this car! The best one I've ever owned. Fuel economy is fantastic, especially on the highway. The cabin has a ton of space and the GPS feature is small, but comes in handy.

This is the best car I've ever owned. Fuel economy is wonderful, especially on the highway. It's very comfortable, however road noise can be loud. Love the hatchback, so much room.

It works very well. Haven't had any problems trunk is a little small but it works well for me. Driving is comfortable and I don't have any complaints

Bought in 2010 and only this past January 2017 I had to change the tires! Great lasting parts on this vehicle.

ALso very good on fuel economy!

My car is a Mazda3 sports and i got it last year, i love it it's part of our family we use it to travel and we have a lot of memories with it it, bad and or good you know, but yeah i love my boo thing ''Mazda 3'' thats her name .

Very good mileage but not the pretiest indoor. Can be easily rusted. Pretty front of the car. Not the most comfortable. Very economic. A little expensive for what it offers.

It is a good car with good transmission it is economic it is worthy not that expensive it is a fast car it is automatic the breaks are good the discs too

Great reliable car. Haven't had any issues / major repairs done. Great on gas. Love the sporty look of this car. Great trunk space, but backseat is not very roomy. I wouldn't recommend this car if you have a family.

Had a normal experience with this car. Exterior design is pretty basic (black color). Interior was pretty ok. Had some issue with rust in my past white mazda 3 but now it is less apparent on the new baby. Engine is not loud, perfect for some family ride. Had some issues with the tires but not that big deal. Braking with this car is good and easy. Fuel consumption is ok, no big deal I can make some 100 km with a little more than a quarter. Had a pretty normal experience to sum up. A good car for a little family and for someone that want an easy and normal looking car.

This is our second one we've owned. The first one lasted 10 years and we are on year 5 for this one. Great leg room in the backseat for passengers and lots of options for hauling stuff in the interior. Car looks great and the only draw back is that it is too small for hauling a trailer. Other than, love this car.

Compared to others in it's class the Mazda 3 blows the competition away. Especially the 1st generation model that is built in Japan. I went for the top trim when looking for a second hand car. It is zippy and reliable. For the price it is cheaper and better than a second hand honda civic which has a mark up due to it's name. Interior has leather seats, climate control, cruise control, AUX and heated seats. The hatchback is great for our pet dog to sit in. GT model is not as fuel efficient as the lower models due to it having close to 160hp. Love this car and will be driving it for years to come.

I still have this car! I love it! I have the sport in white. With black leather interior.....................................................................

I found my car using autotrader. It made the search easier and filters were up to date. So far I am happy with my purchase.

after 10 years of ownership, this car keeps on going with no imajor problems but i do have a evap problem now.

My Mazda has been an absolute dream car! It is so much fun to drive. My Mazda 3 handles great, is super fast, and extremely comfortable.

I bought my 2007 Mazda 3 In august 2016. This is my first car so I generally wanted something fuel efficient and reliable. When I bought the car, it had 115,000 KM's on it and now has almost 120,000 Km's on it.

The Good: The car is very cheap on insurance and is also pretty good on gas. The seats are comfortable for around the city trips and the suspension gives an average ride you would normally expect from an economy car. The running costs for regular maintenance is relatively cheap/average. The Mazda 3 also has decent cargo space.

The Bad: The car has been nothing but trouble. The car has had reliability issues ever since the day I bought the car. I had to put all new rotors and pads which is just regular maintenance. But, I had to replace the suspension, put in a new battery and alternator, now the Air Conditioning system is having issues. These cars are also famous for rust under the car, which my car unfortunately has.

Overall, The car has good storage space and is good on gas, but has rust and reliability issues. If you are going to buy this car, I would recommend buying a model with an manual transmission.
I own a 4 speed automatic version, and on the highway the engine sits at relatively 3000 rpm in 4th gear. I am not sure if I would ever consider buying another Mazda, but that is just my opinion and it will vary from person to person.

Car is great on gas. Never had to change anything major just reg wear and tear parts on this car. Doesn't rust easy like other cars.

Only downside is that the backseat has very little leg room, but otherwise fantastic.

loved the sound system it came with, loved the user friendly audio/bluetooth/cruise control system.

Great acceleration, never had to get winter tires. It's very durable.
It drives so quietly puts passengers to sleep even at high speeds.

This car has been so great commuting from the interior to the kelowna and then from there to van! I love everything about it, but we upsized for our growing family! great on fuel and very very reliable!

I had this car for 8 years. Never a problem. In 2006 it was nicknamed by the specialists a "luxury car impersonator" for the interior materials and finishing. Everything aged very well and it still looks better in interior than many 2017 models! Lots of power and fun to drive. Great car!

Well maintained vehicle and very reliable. Never had any issues other then the normal wear and tear that a vehicle uses has.

No problems whatsoever after over a year of ownership. Great little car rank it as good as a Honda but less expensive.
