A car that is great for all ages and all size families.
This car is very reliable, easy to drive. Tons of space and comfortable for long drives. Easy to clean for parents, or for dog owners. Does not have many blind spots. I love my heated seats! The front of the car is not to long for people who are on the shorter side, easy to see out of. I highly recommend this car for first time drivers and for families.

It has really cool interior with cool lights and seats and is super reliable.
I've never had any issues with my car at all whatsoever. Except for the battery sometimes dies when I leave the lights on. That has happened more than once, in fact 3 times. But that is all user error. My car has a super cool interior that I love. It has super awesome seats and a super awesome dashboard with lights that light up at night time. It has blue and red lights. There are never any car problems with it. It's a super safe car I drive with my 4 year old in as a daily driver. 10 out of 10 recommend.

What an excellent car, I love it!
Smooth ride, safe and reliable vehicle, no problems as long as you maintain oil changes, the seats have lumbar support, came with auxiliary capability, blind spots are very minimal, great beginner vehicle plenty of space in cabin, very affordable and a good looking car.

Mazda 3: a reliable and sturdy vehicle.
This has been a very reliable and safe little car for me since 2015. Although it looks small, it actually has a decent amount of space and is very easy to drive. I find the seats to be very comfortable. The speakers are great, but I do wish the car had Bluetooth so I could hook my phone up wirelessly. The main problem I have had with this car is that I live in an area where there are a lot of potholes and have had some tire issues. The hubcaps often come loose and will fall off.

Mazda3 review: the good things and the bad things.
It broke down because it needed a new engine. I bought it used so it makes sense why the engine went out. Other than that I have had no problems with the car. It occasionally will skid if it is raining and not the best car for the snow. However, the heat and ac works great.

2014 mazda 3 review after ten years of ownership.
Great on gas have to fill up take every two weeks. Smooth ride seats are very comfortable and have not lost cushion or sunk in after ten years. Sound system is great and easy to change stations with wheel control feature. Safe car no major issues. Would update to new model in the future.

Mazda 3 is a fun 4 door car to drive.
The Mazda 3 is reliable and has had no issues, it has been used as a daily driver for multiple years. It is a bit small for family use, but for a couple or single person it is perfect. It has a spacious trunk and comfortable interior, and is easy to drive and feels quick.

The car is very reliable on long distance trips.
Interior deteriorates too quickly or things break too easily, mileage is good, sleek and style design, very popular car, really nice stereo system and seats are comfortable. Reliable car good for long distance trips or long commutes to work. A major negative is that they are expensive cars to get fixed at the garage and extremely difficult to work on at home doing simple things like an oil change.

Mazda3 hatchback vehicle review.
I enjoy my vehicle and do not have any problem with it in the last few years of ownership. It drives smooth and is fun to drive. The back seat is a little right for taller adults and car seats but the trunk space makes up for it for my personal preference.
Kristine S
on May 12, 2021
This is an overall great little car!
This is overall a great little car! Runs smooth, stock speakers are awesome, the seats are comfortable and the small trunk is not so small! This car has a pretty fast kick, and having the option to switch from manual to automatic is easy and fun too. There are not very many blind spots with this car either. No chunky plastics blocking the front and rear windows. You can clearly and easily see over all the headrests. I'm only 5’2 so this is a great thing for us short people!
Christy D
on April 29, 2021
Great car. Would highly recommend!
Since owning the car I have had minimal maintenance on the vehicle. New tires, brakes, etc. Everything you expect to replace over time. Drives great even though it has over 130,000 miles at this point. Would definitely recommend this vehicle to friends and family in the future.
Rebecca B

There's options to plug in an mp3 player and play your music in various forms.
This car is very reliable. I have driven across country, twice, without any issues. It has lasted a long time and I do not expect to have any problems with this car anytime soon. It is very safe and comfortable. The drive is smooth. The car is still functionally, given the age of the vehicle.

Easy driving, comfy seating pretty color car.
I love the color which is bluish green. I love the seats, fabric is comfortable and breathable. The speed level is great for areas in Texas that allows 85 mph and I enjoy the modern touch of symbols to let me when if something is wrong. The leg spacing for front and back seats is pretty good. My husband and I are both above 5'7'. Drives well. Works well.

Review of Mazda 3s grand touring.
I love my Mazda when it comes to comfort, performance, reliability and features. Despite it being 2011 it has Bluetooth and cruise control. It is a manual which is a bonus for those who love driving stick. The seats in the grand touring are leather and heated as well.
Joshua J

2011 Mazda 3, 110k miles and good as ever.
110k miles, needs new tires but rides very smooth, clunking noise in right rear when going over bumps, gets good gas mileage, sleek look, clean interior, very quick acceleration and turning, body a little too low to the ground to get under, very spacious back and trunk, good ac and air circulation.
Katherine P

Mazda 3: nice car but some strange features.
It's a nice car. It rarely has any problems. But it's not the most comfortable to sit in for long periods of time. I stay all day away from home and wish it was more comfortable. The headlights are set at an odd angle and no shop has been able to fix it as of yet.
Darienne G
on April 23, 2021
Best purchase I have ever made carwise!
I have owned it for over 5 years... No engine issues with proper care of course. Still drives like the day I bought her. Perfect curb handling. Fantastic ok the long road trips.. And even my dogs hang out the sunroof during our evening rides... Mazda 4life.

Perfect hatchback for an adventuring 20-something.
I purchased my Mazda 3 used nearly five years ago and since then, I have had no problems with it. I used to live in Nashville, TN where the weather was extremely diverse, from high heat to deep snow. Despite the fact that my car is not an all-wheel drive, I was able to navigate through icy roads extremely well. In terms of features, it has everything I want in a car- a moon roof, reliable ac and heating, great stereo, a six-disc CD changer, and a slap-stick. My only complaint which is purely aesthetic is that the buttons for the lights in my front seats have broken off. I can still turn the lights on and off, but the fixtures you typically press broke some time ago. I do not know if the plastic arms were made too thin, or the heat of summer somehow weakened them, but this happened quite soon after getting my vehicle.

My great Mazda 3 hatchback love.
This is a great car to drive as it is light, has power and great storage space. I have had little to no issues whatsoever with the car overall maintenance and reliability. The design has maintained beautiful over the years and still draws attention wherever it goes. If I were to buy a car again back when I bought this in 2013 I would do it all over again for the great memories this car has brought to my life.
Heather L
on April 11, 2021
Comfortable, reliable, plenty of space.
I have owned my Mazda since 2013 and I love it - it's very comfortable for long drives with plenty of space. With regular maintenance, I have not needed any major changes/work done, making it my most reliable vehicle in years. Oil changes require synthetic oil so it's a bit pricier but you do not need to get them as often.
Meilynne M

The mazda3 iSport is a great little car that is great for everyday life.
There's been quite some issues with lights on the dashboard and gear shift but nothing else really. I enjoy driving it. The car is pretty strong but the petals help in controlling the ease and smoothness of take off and stops. The car is nice and small which is nice for parking and I really appreciate the driver's seat option such as raising the seat. The car is great on freeways and the handling is beautiful.

Very reliable Mazda 3. A very cute car.
Amazing car and very reliable. I have had this car for 8 years and have been surprised at how great it is and low maintenance it is. Very comfortable and the inside is very easy to use. The radio is basic and also easy to use. I think as long as you maintenance your car frequently and get your oil changed regularly the car lasts.
Elis U

Mazda3 is a reliable vehicle.
My car it pretty reliable. I like that it drives fast. It has all the features I really need in a car. I have never experienced a problem with it breaking down. I feel very safe in my vehicle. The seats are comfortable and there is a good amount of legroom. There is also a lot of trunk space. I can do long distance trips in my car with no problems.

It runs good and it is good on gas and didn't have a lot of miles on it.
I have a 2011 white Mazda 3 it was used when I bought it there where 113,000 miles on it I have had it for 7 months. I paid cash for it. Runs good cold ac and heat. It has no lights on, it has a sunroof, also looks good inside and out. Haven't had any major problems. It is very good on gas. Am satisfied with the car I like it.
Jasmine H

In my opinion, Mazda is a great choice if you are looking for your first car.
I honestly love my Mazda I have had it for over 5 years there wasn't a previous owner but it was used at a rental before I took over ownership, only negative thing I would say about it is over time it loses its speed I feel like it does not pick up the speed as fast as it usually would when I first purchased the car, overall very loyal car I have taken it to Vegas and Arizona, and I live in Camarillo ca. And it still worked just fine after those long road trips.
Ally D

An older car that runs pretty well.
My car it is an older model Mazda but it drives well and in pretty good condition! It has run pretty well for the past 9 years with little problems. I drive it a lot so the mileage is up but it runs pretty smoothly. The break pads need to be renewed but besides that the car runs well!
Cori K

Reliable speedy mazda3 with good weight.
Reliable car, good pickup. Trunk space is decent for the size of the vehicle. Leg room is not for big and tall. Doors seem flimsy but the car is light. I have only had one problem with the ac and it costed $50 to replace the Schrader valve and it works perfectly.
Tom L

Michaela W
on March 16, 2021
Good everyday driver. Will get you to point A and B. The car looks sharp inside and out. Good Gas mileage. Drives great if maintenance is keep up on it.
The car is on the smaller side. There is not much leg room in the back. Also the seats are not comfortable for long trips. The dash is hard to keep clean due to the type of material that it is made from. Dust gets down in the little ridges and it's hard to get it out. Other than those small inconveniences the car is a good car.
Rebecca t
on March 15, 2021
It's not as reliable as other cars that I could have gotten that were similar
My car drives well and the design is sleek and pretty. The gas mileage is pretty good. The reliability is not great, and replacing tires is very expensive.
Heather C

Pros and cons of a 2011 Mazda 3.
Everything is basic, no power locks or seats. No digital display. No Bluetooth. Sometimes it has issues starting. However, it has great gas mileage. It also gets up speed quickly and with ease. It is fun to drive. It is an automatic with autostick. It also has truck access from the interior back seat.
Sydney K
on March 2, 2021
Clutch car failure but still a good car.
Clutch failed after only 50k miles which is extremely low for a car. It was very expensive to get fixed as well. I wish when I bought the car that it had the option to come with racks for the top so I wouldn't have to buy separately. The radio is really nice through.
Sarah B
on March 2, 2021
Great choice of vehicle the mazda3.

2011 mazda3 ltz. Close to 100,000 miles.
This car is great on gas. It is an older car obviously being a 2011. I have had no issues since getting this car about a year ago. It has great maneuverability. Nice and comfortable for long drives. As far as features it is not much compared to what we have on newer vehicles today. It does have power windows and locks. Has an aux connection available.
Erin M
on March 1, 2021
It needs what seems to be constant maintenance or fluid flushes.
There seems to be big issues every time I take the car for an oil change. It could be the car or the mazda service team. I'm not sure which but it certainly leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
Vey O
on February 28, 2021
Good gas mileage, and perfect size.
The battery wasn’t working properly. If you forgot to turn off your light, you cannot turn on the car (the engine). The light has condensation too, it is not really bright. And the honk is not loud enough. I do like the size, it is easy to park. Good gas mileage.
Amanda T

Mazda hits the mark with me!
I absolutely love my Mazda. The style is nice and it drives and handles well. It can seat 4 people comfortably with room to spare. We go to the beach a lot and the trunk can fit all of our necessities. I love the moon roof feature and the Bose speakers.
Daniel O
on February 23, 2021
Why my Mazda is amazeballs.
It is just a great car. Small but plenty of room and plenty of power. The 6 speed manuals are hard to find but definitely worth it with any type of sporty vehicle. Very reliable and the parts are not the most expensive or hard to replace. Definitely will be looking for a speed.
William K
on February 16, 2021
Mazda 3 a great all around car.
The Mazda is very reliable! I have had it for over 7 years and just now had my first big repair on it (transmission). I travel from okc to Kansas City regularly on it so I put in the miles. Anyone that has had a ride or driven the car mentions how smooth it is and its turning capabilities.
Hazel B

Compact car that is surprisingly roomy for the driver.
Love the car. Very fuel efficient, which is nice considering how much I have to travel. Not a lot of legroom in the back seats for passengers, but the driver’s seat is very comfy for long drives. There are some occasional ac issues due to engine belt.

Thus far the car has been extremely reliable with no major issues in terms of maintenance problems, with the biggest expense being tires being replaced on the suggested regularity.
Christian M

It's a fun little car, and a sedan to boot. It's not huge, but you can get a small family around in it.
It has pretty good acceleration, handles well, and was a pretty good price. The gas mileage isn't great, but that's partially my fault for how I drive.
Anna L
on January 22, 2021
Mazda 3 is reliable and comfortable.
My car is very reliable and has good gas mileage (about 27/gallon, I can go almost 300 miles before filling up). It is comfortable and can seat 5. The front seats recline and the back seats can fold down for more trunk space. It is on the smaller side, but it works well for me and my family.
Brandon H

My car gets good gas mileage and drives well. It is a good little car.

Bang for the buck. Reliable, sporty little car.
Purchased used two years ago. As of now, not a single problem except possible electrical glitch in an inside light. Nothing that affects driving. It is zippy, gets decent gas mileage, and fairly comfortable for the price point. Swift driving response.

I love this vehicle so much. I have used it so much since my purchase in 2011, currently ranging about 16,000 miles each year, and it still runs amazing. The car looks great, almost no wear and tear. The car has a sunroof that I have admired since the start.

Peppy car with good fuel economy.

Kyle V

Peppy, affordable vehicle.
This car is surprisingly roomy for its class if you get the hatchback. The stick shift makes it more fun to drive - I would call it peppy. The entertainment system is easy to use with good speakers. Gas economy could be better. It is also affordable compared to others in its class.
Matthew b
on December 25, 2020
It's reliable and overall a good car to have and service at the Mazda dealership by me is great
It has decent horsepower, good acceleration, is reliable and I like It's red interior lighting on the dashboard. My only dislike is It's mileage per gallon, which isn't terrible but worse than previous cars I've had.
Alicia S

My pretty white Mazda 3 with black leather seats.
I love my car. It has not given me any issues in almost 10 years. It has nice leather seats. I would definitely recommend this car to anyone. Especially college aged. I will want something larger in the future as it is fairly small for more than one or two people.
Thelma M

2011 Mazda 3 I sport, silver, great engine, stylish and sporty.
It has a great engine, fast, and handles the road well, including turns, has a digital display and aux connection versus Bluetooth on new vehicles, can set your favorite radio stations, seat are manual adjustable. I recommend this car for a younger group of drivers, preferably new drivers.
Christina S
on December 22, 2020
Dependable, long lasting vehicle.
It's been a great car with minimal repairs. Outside of normal maintenance (oil changes, new tires, brakes) I have only recently have needed to change out the rotators both front and back. The care has 130k miles and I am confident I can get at minimal another 100k.
Lucas R
on December 17, 2020
The best detail of the car has to be the interior illumination.
Minimal problems aside the regular maintenance and some factory recalls. The enjoyment of driving this car far surpasses the issues it presents. When driving down the highway with ease and a boosted engine using the 2. 5l engine makes passing and accelerating a breeze.
Yamil V

Great car for a family starter.
The wheel bearing went out on the car quite early. Great highway fuel mileage. . Not so great in the city. Great for first time parents as the car is roomy and the hatch is perfect for storage. The red metallic paint on the roof faded despite waxing the car religiously and believe it or not the car cost more than my Mustang.
Logan C
on December 10, 2020
Insight on the feel and reliability of Mazda vehicles.
The vehicle has been very reliable with no major issues brought about. Overall I like the feel of Mazdas as they have more of a sporty feel, but the 2011 is lacking on some the high-tech features newer models are offering. There is decent traction control, but I have noticed the car struggles more in inclement weather (mainly snow and ice). I will be looking for an AWD car once I upgrade, but will likely stay in the Mazda family.
Breanna D
on December 9, 2020
Bluetooth and aux and cruise control.
My car is good on gas and it has Bluetooth, aux and cruise control there’s hardly any problems I have had with it. It is treated me very well the last two almost three years I have had it even with all the miles I have put into it during that time. I had problems with the tire pressure at first but nothing too major.
Olivia B
on December 8, 2020
Reliable car and would recommend.
This has been a reliable vehicle for me. I like the size of it and the trunk expands into the back seat if needed which has proven to be very helpful to me. I have owned the car for 3 years and have not had to do any significant repairs. It drives pretty smoothly as well. Does not have cruise control or Bluetooth phone hookup which can be frustrating at times, but not an actual problem.
Ann B
on December 7, 2020
Love that there is room for four. Love that it accelerates quickly.
Mazda 3 is a very reliable vehicle, because it responds to situations that can arise on the road. If someone cuts you off, granted you are paying attention to the road, then your quick reaction and applying pressure to the brake pedal will help you divert an accident. I have not had issues with this vehicle in the eight years that I have owned it.
Jennifer S
on December 6, 2020
It's a great trustworthy brand. My car is what I chose to keep my children and myself safe.
I love the pick up it has, the look, and the Bluetooth capabilities. I wish it had GPS and four wheel drive. It's a bit scary to drive in the winter months.
Ricardo A. O
on December 6, 2020
It is fuel efficient and it is fun to drive. The interior is very cool.
I love the interior, gas mileage, room, features, and reliability for the price.... I do not like that the dashboard is starting to come undone due to the hot Texas summers, but not much can be done about that..
Tyler B
on December 4, 2020
My vehicle is a 2011 Mazda 3.
My vehicle runs very well and certainly gets me from place to place. Mazda's have great gas mileage so it is a good deal when it comes to filling up my tank. Oil changes are a bit pricier than the average car just because of the type of oil they need. Tires can become worn but will give some decent years. Steering is good, as well as all interior functions and features.
Greg J
on December 4, 2020
Good mileage and price, not great trim and reliability.
None except there is no cruise control and the power steering comes and goes. But it was very cheap and has excellent gas mileage all the time. None except there is no cruise control and the power steering comes and goes. But it was very cheap and has excellent gas mileage all the time.

A pretty expensive used Mazda 3.
Bought the car used, within the first 6 months I had to replace my shocks and transmission. I ended up replacing the shocks again about 6 months after that again. After all of that the car has been awesome. No issues since then, but fairly expensive starting out.

Alex F
on November 29, 2020
Mazda 3 is a good choice for me.
Frequently needs to have ball joints replaced. Visibility is low in the hatchback. My model is the 2.5, 6 speed manual. Very happy overall with the powertrain. Interior is comfortable and practical. Gas mileage is solid. Air conditioning is average. Audio system is nice. Parts for this car have been easy to find, relatively inexpensive.
Frank W
on November 28, 2020
Good and reliable over long period of time.
The car has almost one hundred thousand miles and good conditions and connections and regular maintenance. Tire and battery changes same engine and regular oil changes. No damage or accidents reported in the past. I like the interior and clean it. Bluetooth wireless devices can be used for hands free phone calls and voice read text messages.
Christopher C
on November 23, 2020
Great car for people with no kids.
Reliable but parts are expensive but doesn't tend to require much maintenance. Smooth driving and fast comfortable interior with light up dashboard. Not really a car for big families only 3 seats and if you use a car seat it will make you very uncomfortable as the driver.
Gabby A
on November 23, 2020
Great car that gets you where you need to go.
The car works extremely well and is still performing like brand new even though it is almost ten years old. It is not anything fancy, but it runs well and drives easily so it does the trick. However, the inside of the car is quite small, so if you are taller this might not be for you. Additionally, I am not crazy about the outside design of the car.
Tameeka G
on November 23, 2020
Small fast car with big storage and legroom and good gas mileage.
Love the sea bluish green color. Love the back seat spacing and large trunk. Love the driver and passenger side leg room and steering wheel commands. Very reliable, great speed and gas mileage. Really good condition for the years we have owned it from 2015. Love the bass-would like it to come with more FM options. Love the three anchor base for car seats in the back so that we can add more or choose between the three.
Maria H
on November 23, 2020
Excellent MPG with Comfortable to add on
The Mazda 3 I touring drives really smooth. It's a nice size car for a small family of 4 to ride comfortably in. Great on gas. Good car to use for either personal use or business. Bluetooth enabled, which more than 2 devices may be added to the memory list. Easy menu guide. Only thing I dislike is the headlights are not automatic. Which I sometimes forget to turn off, but when you turn the car off, a buzz sound will alarm until lifts are turned off.
Kimberly S
on November 15, 2020
Great car! Would buy it again.
This car has been really wonderful for me. It is comfortable to ride in and is easy to drive. Fair warning that my model does not have cruise control and I found that out the hard way. As an in town commuter car it is perfect. I have not had any major mechanical problems since it was purchased and plan on driving it for a while longer!
Juan B
on November 10, 2020
Great value-great price. Would definitely purchase again.
Great gas mileage and very comfortable. Wonderful amenities like Bluetooth capabilities, stereo, CD player, charging stations, auto windows and locks, heat, air conditioning, solid engine that lasts over 250,000 miles, great long-distance vehicle. I recommend to anyone looking to buy an affordable and reliable car.

I love the interior and exterior design. There are also a lot of great options for playing music (CD player, AUX cord, radio, Sirius XM Radio, Bluetooth). The car is just the right size and the trunk is spacious. I don't have any complaints about it.

Well built and long lasting
Well built and reliable. Have gone long overdue on most oil changes and no problems. Over 100,000 miles still get roughly 35 mpg. Only ever had to replace tires and brakes. Was in a nasty wreck but kept me safe. Was rebuilt and keeps going. I drive 35 miles to and from work daily.

2011 black Mazda 3 itouring. With slap shift and Bluetooth audio.
My black Mazda is a very smooth car really reliable. In two years my only problem is having a nail in my tire. The speakers are amazing I didn't have to spend money on custom speakers. Seats are comfortable for long drives my only complaint is that everything feels a little cramped. Other than that amazing car.

2011 Mazda 3. . . The good, bad and ugly of an economical American made car.
Great gas mileage. Low maintenance. Recall on dashboard. It is coming apart at a seam. Good pick up. 88000 miles and runs great. New tires in 2017. Always reliable. Fairly comfortable. Not real quiet inside, stereo volume has to be turned up to be heard over road noise.

Overall the Mazda3 is an excellent choice for traveling with a small family.
The Mazda3 handling has been an issue. The wheel bearing needed replaced fairly early. The hatchback is a fantastic feature, especially with having a child and having to carry additional items. Very comfortable car for a driver but not enough leg room in the passenger seat if you have a passenger in the rear.

Great car! It has been a great driving it.
No problems so far, very reliable. We love to take it on road trips. It is great off road as well. My boyfriend loves having a hatchback for camping. You can store a ton in your car and it is has plenty of space. It is a great car and it has not broke down like most of my other cars.

The pros and cons of owning a Mazdaspeed3.
It gets great gas mileage and has a very fast turbo motor but the issues with the turbo and the starter and the turbo seal keeps having issues. It's not a very comfortable ride with it not having very good shock performance. Going over bumps make for a very uncomfortable ride and makes me get a very bad headache.

Nice car to get around town. Compact yet spacious.
Mazda 3 is a great car. Had it for a couple weeks. Very compact yet very spacious. It can take a bit of money to fill up your tank, but depends on usage. The car includes Bluetooth which is a plus if your a music lover or if you need to talk on phone hands free.

It runs great. Drove it 1300 miles across the country and it did amazing.
I don't like the color of the seats, wish they were black and not tan. I wish it had a sunroof. I love everything else about it.

Most reliable car without issues.
Not much problem. Engine light turned on after 100k miles on vehicle because of intake sensor failure. Beside that, the vehicle still give me great mileage per gallon of fuel averaging 30-31 mpg. Definitely love my vehicle. I believed it will still have some good years ahead.

I love the safety features.
I love that I have Bluetooth capabilities. I have over 100000 miles on this car and it still runs like a champ. Has tons of life left. Exterior still looks great. Very reliable and safe car.

The car has a great pick up and it handles really well
The only issue I have are features. I do not have cruise control or bluetooth which I want in my next vehicle. Overall no performance issues. Very comfortable in the front, but not much room in the back.

My sister's Mazda 3 small car.
The car that my sister owns is an older model Mazda 3. It has hands-free technology for cell phones. It also is a small-medium sized car so that it is easy to drive. It is good on gas. It also has a spacious trunk. It handles well on the road. It does take a higher grade gasoline.

It is a really good car easy to drive and cheap.
My car even tho is not the newest tear is pretty comfortable and I love it because it is pretty easy to drive and also it is really cheap with gas. I love how big it is the trunk and how cheap is the maintenance and the insurance. I will recommend this car for how amazing it is.

Radio good. Inside lights are great.
No problems and I have had two Mazda's. I love all the features on it. Well made car and gets great gas mileage and very comfortable to take trips in. Insurance is reasonable and not considered sports car. If you decided to get one, make sure you get it loaded with all features that you want.

2011 Mazda 3 is reliable and fun to drive.
Reliable, dependable, comfortable, and zeros problems at the current 166,000 miles. My car is sporty and great for long drives. It offers many features and fits my needs. It comfortably seats 5 and offers substantial truck space. I have enjoyed my car for the past 5 years and would consider purchasing a newer model in the future.

My Mazda says 'hello' and 'goodbye' on the dashboard when you turn it on and off.
My Mazda performs well in terms of speed and miles per gallon. It is a little outdated in term of features, but I find it a reliable car. I have had some basic problems with my car battery and brakes, but that is to be expected with a car from 2011. Overall I am pleased and would absolutely buy a Mazda again.
