This car handles fabulously! However, it is not perfect. I've had some problems, such as air bag system failure, peculiar engine noises at idle, and paint chipping. It also has lots of road noise as well. Also, gas mileage is good but not great.

Great, great handling. Very comfortable and grippy seats. Very easy to drive and maneuver in city. The exterior looks great. The engine has plenty of power for the vehicle. Overall, I would recommend this car, but you need to understand what you are getting.

I like the way it looks, the equipment panel setup and lights, sound system, seat comfort. I am getting pretty good gas mileage... at least what was expected... or better.

I love this little car, it handles like an Infiniti and even the interior is comparable to the Infiniti. This little car is surprisingly fast and it has that agressive street racing look. I am happy I choose it over simlar cars in its class. It delivers the most bang for its reasonable buck.

If you are looking for a car with style, interior and exterior beauty, performance and even good gas mileage for under 20,000 dollars look no further, this is the car you are going to get. Mazda compares this car to the honda civic and toyota corolla. Love the car.

The Mazda3 5-speed hatch is a great car to drive -- good handling and driving dynamics. Euro-tuned suspension. Smooth engine and great manual transmission. The only thing keeping this car from blowing out the competition is fuel economy. The next generation 3 should address these issues.
