Happiest I've ever been with my Mazda

So this purchase was a huge come up for me. I'm 23 yrs old, 5'1, overall small person but my Mazda 3 makes me feel invincible. I'm a strong believer in that your car plays a part in how you represent yourself. After driving a 2014 Chevy Spark, it was time to trade it in for a more reliable and comfortable car. I recently purchased a used 2016 Mazda 3 from my local Mazda dealer in Orlando, FL. The features are amazing to say the least I have a touch screen navigation, blind spot sensors and keyless entry, which is all big pluses for me. My sales rep couldn't have been more prefect either in making my experience a pleasant one. He delivered knowledge about Mazda vehicles as if it were second nature. Go test drive a Mazda yourself, you won't be disappointed.

An extremely smooth and fun drive

As soon as I test drove it I fell in love. It has a really powerful exterior design accompanied by a great interior and lots of accessories. It drives very smoothly and comfortably, but can also pack a serious punch when it comes to acceleration and speed. I truly recommend this car!

Best car ever !!!!

This is the second Mazda3 I bought. Great car, runs great, looks even better !!!! I bought the cherry red color and people will stop and look at it. Every time I take the car out somebody will ask me if I like it. You can't beat the price.

Great Car, Great mileage and fun to drive!

This car is great and is in great condition. With only 25,858 miles, it is still under manufacturers warranty and drives great. It is very comfortable and gets great mileage!

My first new car

The Mazda 3 is a great vehicle. I just purchased mine as a pre owned with only 3600 miles on it. The extrior has a sporty look to it while the interior is comfortable and sleek. It has a real spedomitor which I prefer to the digital real out ones. I have the hatch back model and the trunk is still quite big and the seats are able to be folded down for extra room. The touch screen is great and easily connects to my phone for hands free driving. It is a 4 cylinder so it's not the fastest car on the road but it gets up and goes quickly and steering performance is spectacular. Gas milegae wise its great, I get about 31 with a good mix of city and highway driving I do. It also does well in snow conditions. Overall it's the perfect car for someone who wants something sporty yet practical.

Don't look any further

The Mazda3 is one of the best cars on the market for the price. The new Mazda's are the new Honda's in terms of reliability and comfort. I'm so happy to own a car that I know will be driven for a very, VERY, longtime.

Best bang for the buck, hands down!

Just an excellent vehicle. Comfortable, responsive and great performance. Good mileage and interior design. This car is fun to drive. City and highway. Surprised to get all the bells and whistles I'd expect on a European model for such an affordable cost. Do yourself the favour of checking it out.
