Gas mileage is excellent. Easy to maneuver in small spaces and turning radius and switching lanes. Durable. No big repairs needed, just normal maintenance. Stylish. Looks good, has a spoiler. Cheap to insure and less expensive to renew tabs.
It is highly dependable, can get cheap parts, it has great gas mileage, it runs smoothly, it has a durable motor, it is super fast, it is easy to use, it is best next to Mazda 6, durable leather interior.
It has a sunroof, the seats are comfortable, I like the color of the interior. I like that it is fairly updated for an older model. I was able to replace the old, outdated radio with a newer Bluetooth touch screen one.
It has a leak so the water collects in the trunk and passenger rear door. It has rust and paint chips so appearance is not appealing. Small so cannot hold large volume of items. Radio antenna has broken.
It is low to the ground, the paint has chipped quickly and easily, it needs tire rotation often, it is black inside and out which is very hot during the summer, it wears tires quickly, the motor needs to be replaced.
It is kind of small for my family because my toddler is kind of large for his age. It is a foreign car, so sometimes the parts are more expensive, if something major goes out. Though I like the look of the interior, it is kind of hot in the summertime. Seems to have cooling issues.
The 2005 Mazda Mazda3 has an average owner rating of 4.07 out of 5 which ranks it #8 of 22 other Small Cars.
