Very reliable

I've had this car for 6 years now and it has not let me down. I wish I bought one with manual transmission but the automatic transmission is adequate, it is still fun to drive. Only problem here is the dashboard material, it's melting a bit due to UV effect. This causes a reflection through the windshield depending on the sun is facing. It is a defect that was eventually corrected with the 2014 model.

Best car we have ever owned!

Reliable and great first car for our two 16 year olds and so much fun to drive. Currently has over 100,000 miles and still going strong! After owning this car, the rest of our family vehicle purchases have been Mazda’s.

Sporty and economical

Nice smooth ride and a very sporty feel on the road! Good gas mileage. Manual over ride is very fun to drive. Sound system is spectacular. Decent space for passengers. Rear seat is small, would not be comfy for someone with long legs.

Quick Car

I am very content with my Mazda 3. It's a manual shift and runs well. The inside has a sporty dash, the car is good on gas, and I like the overall look of the car. Plus, it's fun to drive! More importantly, my Mazda 3 has been reliable even in the cold winters of western NY.

Mazda 3S

I've owned several Mazda's over the years. They are an excellent car and perform well. The last two vehicles went to my daughters as their first car while I enjoyed my new car. My daughter enjoys her new Mazda CX5 and I'm looking at getting a new one within the year. Great car.

Reliable!

I love my Mazda 3! It's a reliable vehicle that I have owned for 6 years now n was a few years old when I purchased it. I've had to change the tires once along with my battery and back brakes. Otherwise the car runs great. I have a sense of ease that when I'm driving far away for travel that I don't have to worry about anything going wrong. I would highly recommend a Mazda for your future vehicle! They have so many makes and models to choose from!

Good looking and classy

Looks good, rides ok, a gas saver just not the right style for a 60 plus driver. Too low to the ground making it hard to get in and out. Felt like riding in a sports car when I bought it. Love driving it.

Mostly awesome

Love the body style and the dash layout. Hate the button to open the hatch and that the ebrake is on the passenger side. Whose brilliant idea was that? Pretty fun to drive, but uncomfortable for long trips. Overall, I'm still in love with my car after two and a half years. That says a lot..

I knew how dependable Mazda's are as I have a 1990 Miata and my Mazda 3i has continued to keep me satisfied. Add the excellent customer service at Lee Johnson it's just a winning combination!

Mazda3 Hatchback - Very Fun To Drive

Car is a sound investment. Turning and driving (especially fast!) has never been more fun. This car easily fits my 70lb greyhound and I.

Love My Mazda 3

I'm a very small person, and the Mazda 3 is a perfect fit for me. I can adjust seat height, tilt & distance from the wheel so I get optimum comfort and visibility through all windows. I haven't owned the car for very long and bought it used, but so far I'm very pleased. It's quick, responsive, and very comfortable to ride in. The only feature I don't care for is the low front end. Clearing a curb or backing out of a steep driveway is sometimes difficult.

Mazda 3

Love it. It's comfortable, drives nice, accelerates great, gets great gas mileage. Love all the bells and whistles, heated seats, auto wipers, traction control, etc. I feel safe in it with all the air bags and anti-lock brakes.

All smiles!

I loved the first generation Mazda3 since it was first released, and when the 2010 model came out I was prepared to buy. A lot of people were put off by the new "smiling grill" but that was just the first thing that made me smile. I've had the car for 5 1/2 years, 107,000 miles and haven't had a single issue. Kept up on maintenance, which is very little outside of oil changes, and the car has yet to fail me.
