I liked the mpg I got. The interior is cool. The maintenance cost on this thing have been a headache. The dealer I bought it from is not cooperative with the repairs. this thing has been in a repair shop more than on the road, at least under my ownership. I had a warranty, thank god because I would have had to pay for like $7,000 worth of repairs. New engine, rebuilt transmission, new clutch, and wiring issues. All things I have had to deal with over a 2 year period. It has been an absolute nightmare. I would not do it again if I had the chance. I would have been better off going off Craigslist or auto trader.

The interior of the car is probably the best looking I've seen so far, it has a sporty feel with a cheap price. The fuel economy is pretty good especially for those who are looking to save tons of gas with the gas prices rising higher and higher every day. However this model lacks power for the car so it doesn't feel fast at all and also when driven at a high speed, it gets pretty loud. The price of the Mazda3 is more on the lower end so its recommendable for anyone looking for a cheap sporty looking car. However the exterior can be a little boring as it's pretty basic.
