I currently own a Mazda 3 and have owned it for about 5 years. I bought it when I was commuting on a daily basis and wanted something fun to drive that also held my family if needed. I bought it without any research and never having driven or known about this specific model. I was actually looking for a MINI Cooper instead.

I love my vehicle; it's very luxurious for a (cheaper-end) sedan. The interior is all leather-like and black, and it comes with a touchscreen with navigation system. It's small (compact), but it's a hatchback, and the back seats can be folded to allow for extra room. The car looks like it's worth more than it is, and it drives the same way. I drove it 1800 miles on a road trip recently, and it performed better than expected. I would recommend 10/10.
