Used Mazda Mazda3 for sale in San Diego, CA

Anthony Rodriguez is an awesome salesman absolutely no pressure answered all my questions in a professional manner. all the staff are kind and courteous I fully enjoyed buying my car from siry auto group.

This car meets the needs of my Son. Affordable to purchase, a maintain, hopefully reliable, has good styling and good gas mileage. Nice car for the price.

Great Reliable Car. Will last years if taken care of. Has a little get up and go power. A lot of body kits and accessories out there to really dress her up.

but I loved this 2018 Mazda 3 HB so much, I kept it for myself! We needed a hatchback with good mileage & reasonable insurance rates for our college bound daughter. We drove just about every low - mid range hatchback out there: Ford Focus, Hyundai Elantra GT, VW Golf etc. The Mazda 3 was not even on our radar. We just happened to see one at a car lot while test driving a Honda Fit. We really liked the look, so we took it for a spin. It was fabulous! Now to be clear, I'm NOT your typical small car guy. I've been driving a Suburban & Ford Flex Limited for the past 20 years. But this little car blew me away. Much more comfortable than any of the others we'd driven. It seemed to have more power/speed. It handled like a dream. The brakes were super. The interior was so much nicer than the others & it was loaded with option like heated seats, BLIS, power leather driver seat, moonroof, back up cam, navigation and a crisp & loud Bose sound system. The road noise was minimal. We bought it on the spot & plan to buy another one - for her -soon. Absolutely love this car. I didn't care for the radio controls (by shifter) at first - but now I don't think I'd have it any other way. Just a great little car! Averaging 32mpg combined.

Very easy to purchase, the entire thing happened over email and the papers were signed via overnight FedEx. Less than 1 week later, the car was in my driveway. It does take longer than a traditional dealer, but you don't have to sit there for hours while the paperwork and financing takes place. The car came in immaculate condition, no paint chips, no scratches. Interior was perfectly detailed and cleaned. Good price, low mileage, clean history report.

Aside from the poor positioning of the cupholders and zero ambient lighting, this car is amazing. I've only had it for a month, but it may be my favorite car that I've had. I knew nothing about Mazda and I bought the car online without seeing it first, but really have no regrets. The 12 speaker Bose soundsystem is amazing (which is why I bought it) and I've taken it on a 4,000 mile roadtrip and it was a lot of fun to drive. The "deep crystal blue" color is beautiful and the gas mileage is decent around the city but great on the highway. I'm averaging 320 miles to a tank in the city and 460 on the highway. All in all a great purchase.

Sold my vehicle through them. Was very up front and they shipped for free. They paid for overnight delivery for the paperwork and the check. Will definitely use them again.

I've been driving Mazda3 for 6 years. It is the best car among all the cars I've tried in the same price range. The sound system is totally the best, which is important for me as a musician. I have rented even newer models of other car brands and the sound system were trashy, also I had to carry the actual key, which is annoying. I like that Mazda3 has a sensor lock and starts with a button, and I don't have to carry a bulky key. Never had any failures with this car.

I just bought a used 2017 Mazda 3 Grand Touring. It is perfect for a short woman who likes to drive fast with moon roof open and the stero loud.

Most reliable car in my 37 years of driving! NO problems. Biggest negative are brakes grabbing at parking lot speeds. Biggest positive 39 mpg average. I had software upgraded and replaced USB module from Walmart for Android auto and Apple carplay

I have owned this car for 8 years and have put over 115k miles on it myself. I currently has 131k. It has been an amazing car, very little issues, if any at all, just regular wear items replaced. I’ve always followed the regular maintenance and replaced things when they need to be done. I will agree with another review, these cars do wear through tires faster than most cars, make sure you rotate and balance every 6k

i took the responsibility to do research on the Vehicle I wanted to purchase 2005 Yukon. I check the condition of the battery, Oil, Water. Looked at the exhaust smoke upon start up. Being an older person I know when purchasing a used vehicle, one will spend about $500 to bring her up to snuff, with in 60 days of purchase. Hats off to the sales staff. Although they were busy I was attended to and kept entertained. This is a no xxxxxxxxx dealer. Very Happy with the Deal and the delearship.

This is a decent daily driver. The previous owner had neglected oil changes and other basic Items but they were fairly cheap to fix. Sporty and still has lots of room for cargo and rear seats do fold which was an important feature to me.

They have the best employees, they respond very quickly on online inquiries. They offer a huge selection of quality used vehicles and the one time we went to the dealership, they asked us once if we needed any help looking around, we declined and stated that we were just looking and they didn’t haggle us again after that. Which is AWESOME!

This vehicle fits just perfect for me, my past cars have done me well but gave me xxxx at the same time lol. This car is so very good on gas my tank is still full. The mileage is very low and I’m in love with this car! Very satisfied with my purchase!

Went to Carz to check on a Hyundai that they advertised on various car sites. Did not call ahead to check if that particular car was on the lot and it was out that day. Daniel was very courteous and not pushy and showed me some other options they had currently available. He took down my number and in the following week also contacted me when the car I wanted to look at was available. Pleasant experience overall on the first visit.

This so now the 2nd, Mazda 3 I've owned, The first being a 2005 hatchback, this one now the 2010 sedan Overall this car is a great car, in both Mazda 3s I've had now, they've had no major mechanical failures and the work has been routine work, owned the 2005 one for just over three years before it got totaled on an accident back in 2021, the car probably still had another 10 years in it, The 2010 one I have now is the 2nd gen Mazda 3 of course, and its a significant upgrade (excluding it being the sedan instead of the hatchback which does negatively impact storage space) The 2010 Mazda 3 here has great handling, is sporty for it's class, and is very fun to drive, but if you're looking for a car that rides smoothly, this car doesn't, it does have rather stuff suspension. The exterior (in my opinion) is a lot better than it was on the previous body style, I get the "big smiling" front end isn't for everyone but I love the look I did briefly mention storage space earlier for the sedan - the storage space is better than other cars in it's class, and the truck is quite big for a vehicle of it's size, but the opening is small and makes it difficult to fit really any big items in, as for the hatchback, it does fix that issue, I was actually able to fit two full sized bikes inside the vehicle (after putting the back seats down) Although this car does have 1 major issue, The dashboard, Mazda made it out of a rubber plastic material, that when left in the sun, melts and creates a shiney sticky mess that can impact your vision with glare, getting a dash cover at least hides it, but to properly fix it, it requires replacement of the entire dashboard, (which Mazda does not have a tsb or warranty for)

It wasn't what was looking for but it has been the best car that we have been able to buy first time buyer as well

I want to Thank everyone at NCAC for their help and assistance in making my 1st ever vehicle purchase (@ age 44!!!) amazing and painless. One particular individual named Arion (hope I spelled it right) was extremely helpful and courteous answering all our questions and always asking if we wanted water or needed anything (it was hot out today). That’s one thing we didn’t get at the 3 previous dealerships. Just a lot of pressure to buy and fast talking. NCAC is 5 Star Rating all the way. Thank you guys, and thank you Arion (Ar-ree-on)!

I have never had such a perfect car. Mazda knew what they were doing designing this car. The interior is beautiful and the styling of the outside is sharp and stands out on the road. My only complaint about the vehicle is I wish the steering wheel came out like one more inch. It's not huge I can deal with it but since I'm 6'1 I have the seat all the way back and down. Besides that, this is as close as they come to a perfect car. Very reliable and fast, which is very hard to find in a vehicle of this class. Also a huge thanks to Mazda for not putting CVT's in your vehicles. I love the 6-speed automatic it works just fine and I have peace of mind that it's not going to have issues 35k miles into ownership.

I dealt with Eric and Adrian specifically. They were all very nice and approachable. we ended up leasing a truck and everything was explained in detail. will be back!

Found this car online while seeking a slightly-used, mid-sized, sporty car with manual tranny. Drove out of town to get it, and it's been worth the trip so far! Sufficient pep makes it fun, while comfortable and well-featured.

I was very pleased that Jeremy responded to my issue so quickly and completely satisfied with my overall visit.

The Mazda 3 is a great looking and fun to drive commuter car. It's reliable and economical aswell.as well. This is my second Mazda 3 I had a 2016 Mazda 3 Touring it was totaled in December just bought a 2018 Touring is one is better looking probably due to the rims are nicer than the 2016.

I had the car I wanted transferred in and from start to end they kept me informed. The waiting period was a bit of a bummer, but knowing that my car was arriving made it worth the wait. Ryan was super he completed the transaction and put us in good hands. We had a minor defect with the windows but Ryan made sure it was taken care of . Overall we were quite pleased. We're definitely getting a second car with them . Lidia

Ok, well the placement of the cup holders is just wrong. Other than that the handling is near perfect, the seats are comfortable. Plenty of space and lots of the room in the rear.

I purchased 2 cars from this dealership I didn’t have Any issues but I do understand a used car could possibly have some in the future very reasonable dealership

I bought the car in Seattle, drove it to Florida and back. I've put 14,000 miles on it in four months. It's peppy and the stereo is the best factory stereo I've heard. The ride is firmer than I like on the highway but is just right on curvy two lane roads. Great car for city living.

Rob, MIke and Di did a great job in assisting us. The process was fairly simple. Not a lot of stressful haggling. I defined what was necessary for us to make the deal and they said they could work with that. I did recommend them to my son and daughter-in law and they bought a couple weeks later.

This car meet all my needs and wants. It's little and "zippy." I love the 4 doors and the trunk space is awesome! Still need to figure out the bells and whistles but definitely a fun car!

Vista Auto provided an excellent experience from beginning to end! Rodrigo helped us find the perfect vehicle, Araceli helped us understand the financing portion and the owner Chris was extremely welcoming. I am glad I was able to find a vehicle with these exceptional individuals and will gladly recommend to friends and family. Overall very satisfied! :)

Got the 2018 Mazda 3 GT Premium Hatchback with manual trans as the replacement for a 2000 BMW 323i 4 DR sedan (which has become the bad weather/shopping mall car). Selected based on Consumer Reports reliability and other online reviews. I'm 6 ft & it was the only car of this price class that I could sit in comfortably. Back seat is not made for adults. If I sit in back I have to move my knees to the side. Shifts smoother than the BMW. Love all of the safety features (that were included). Definitely fun and handles very well. The hatchback allows me to put larger items in the trunk & greatly reduces the amount of bending to load & unload. Due to pandemic I haven't used it very much. The gear range speed is much narrower than the BMW. The BMW could get to 35 in 1st, and this one screams at 20 in first. Because of the great disparity in features, I need to remind myself which car I'm in. Even the gas caps are on different sides of the two cars. The Mazda is much noisier at highway speed. I feel equally safe driving either car. I don't have the same feeling driving my companions RAV4. The seat isn't comfortable and the handling is not as smooth. I am very satisfied with my decision. Since I keep cars until the turn to junk I did buy the Mazda 10 year extended warranty, which covers everything except normal wear & tear parts like brakes and oil changes at any Mazda dealer in the US, Canada and Mexico.

This is my fourth Mazda3 5-door. I have owned one of each generation and it's obvious they are now striving to reach the more luxury car buyers. I wasn't sold on the butt of the new generation until I saw the car in person. Photos really don't do it justice. My 2008 Mazda3 was a scrappy, fun-to-drive-hard, 5-speed manual. It has a place in my dream garage for the sheer fun of the drive. When I got the 2010, second generation, it added a sixth gear to the excellent manual shifter and was still scrappy and fun to drive. 2017 was the next model I purchased and it was a dramatic change from the prior two. Mazda kicked up the interior styling quite a bit and while the outside still looks like a 3, it received a good dose of "sexy" that the two earlier generations missed. The 2017 was my only automatic transmission and though I am tried-and-true for my manual transmissions, the auto did a great job of downshifting when I wanted (mostly), and the sport mode made the car more entertaining to drive around town. Note: when I drove the car in sport mode I never saw it shift into 6th gear so if you get on the highway it is a good idea to turn off sport mode. 8 months into my 2017 ownership I was cut off by someone and ended up wrapping the car around a street-light pole. The airbags deployed and me and my passenger luckily made it out without serious injury. The engine never stopped running and had to be turned off by the fired department after the crash. I feel safer now, having experienced such a bad accident and the car handling it so well. Once that car was gone I decided to go newer and get the 2020 model. Back to a manual shifter again, this car is the evolution of the Mazda3. The 2017 got a dose of sexy, but the 2020 has gone to etiquette school, and got an even heavier dose of sexy. Compared to the first and second generations, this car does not encourage me to drive the heck out of it, slamming through all of the gears while making the 2.5 liters scream. What it offers now is still a very engaging drive, but instead of scrappy, this car has a more grown-up feel to the way it handles. It clearly handles the twisties better than the 2008 and it does it with a quieter and smoother ride. I bought the Machine Gray, Premium with 6-speed manual and it's a beauty. My brother tells me that it looks sinister and I happily agree with him. I find myself wanting to just drive this car, like yesterday when I washed it then drove over 40 miles through the countryside to "dry" it. I bought the car four-hours from my home so got to experience how comfortable it will be for a road trip. It is the quietest and most comfortable of the generations and I would recommend it to anyone who loves to drive.
