Detailed review: |
The Mazda3 is fun to drive. It has very good handling and is peppy on the highway. The stiff suspension makes for a not so smooth a ride, but it's great on corners. The salesman allowed me take a back road with plenty of twists and turns to test the car's handling. I was not disappointed. It kept tight on turns and boosted fairly quickly out of corners. For about the same price as a Civic, you receive a little more hp. Regarding the options, an Audi tech told me it has just as many toys as some Audi cars without the price. Some of the body styling borrows from Audi, specially the headlights. I did not like the way the dvd player is set up in the glovebox to make room for the navigation. |
