Complete Package

I purchased my 2011 Mazdaspeed 3 a couple of weeks ago and love it! I recently graduated college and wanted something to reward myself for so many years of hard work. So after test driving a WRX, a Civic Si, a 3 series BMW, and a buddy's GTI, I drove passed the local mazda dealer and a Red Speed3 sat out front and I had to give it a try. It has the tech package which is nice in regards to the hid's, premium sound and push button start. The navigation is a little small, but nothing to complain about. It's extremely comfortable, even on long rides (driving an hour and a half to soccer games). I just passed the break-in period and this baby will go! Fast, sporty looking, very comfortable, and with the versatility of the hatch, you can't go wrong with one of these. Overall the best car that I've owned or driven!

I really enjoy my new Mazda 3 Sport. Great power from the 2.0 lt engine, very nice styling, not much leg room in the back seat, but I'm 6'5", has great braking power w/ all wheel disc. Wery nice car. I'm happy.

Great little performance car

I bought this car to use for a daily 30 mile commute on urban expressways. The car performs like a rocket and achieves better mileage than the EPA predicted. The car is loads of fun to drive, accelerates, handles, and brakes much better than most of the cars on the road. I also own a Corvette, and this car is just about as much fun to drive. It is a bargain for the level of performance offered.

2010 Speed3

The only upgrade you can get on this car is the Tech package, which I declined to get. The standard stereo is good, and I don't need push button start. Duel climate control is great, and something you don't see in a low priced 20k car. I've been averaging around 27MPG, which is more than rated. Our 100+ pound dog fits in the back when the seats are folded down, so that nice. Overall very impressed with the car in the 2 months I've owned it.

Great Car!

2010 MazdaSpeed3 is redesigned to look a little more updated and flowing. Stark physical improvements in the interior are new as well. Engine remains very powerful with a little longer legs for the gearing. Car will burn the front tires off with continued spirited acceleration runs. Mileage is good (22 mpg observed city) if you can keep your foot out of it. Six speed tran is without complaint. Nice storage in the back, bigger than some 'small' SUV's. Don't see many of these on the road. Overall highly recommended for folks that like power but also like to keep their money. Get the 10 year warranty as they (dealers) are aggressive in their pricing if you hold out.

Great Little Car

Told myself I would never buy a new car again, until.... with the incentives and few pre-owned available I bought the 3 with the 2.5 l engine- a must. No more fears of gas soaring to $4/gal.
