Used Mazda Mazdaspeed3 for Sale

This car is the best balance of price, performance, style, reliability, and gas mileage. With the smaller turbo engine there's almost too much power, but without engaging the turbo the gas mileage is upper 20's (mi/gallon) on the highway. The suspension is tight, so cornering is fun. The interior of the car feels luxurious with the leather/alcantra seats, red-tinted dash lights, and I love the way the instrument cluster looks.

The Mazda Speed 3 is the perfect mix of daily driver and race car. When it needs to be, it is a practical hatchback that can be utilized as a family car. However, at the flip of a switch, it can turn into a blisteringly quick race car with a penchant for boost.

I have a 2004 Mazda 3 hatchback. Although compact in size, it is surprisingly good at hauling things including a recliner, large vintage desk, and a ten foot ladder. The interior is very comfortable and the seats are very durable. In addition to this, the car is pretty easy to work on and a breeze to change the oil. I have had very few mechanical issues with my car, but my air compressor did break this year which is apparently a common repair issue in Mazda 3's. My only other complaints would be that the tires wear very quickly and the heating/air-conditioning does not work very well. I'm thinking of buying a new car and I wouldn't mind getting another Mazda 3 in the future. The only reason I would consider purchasing a different car is due to the fact that it is very difficult to fit a car seat in the back. The front seat must be pulled all the way forward and cannot be reclined.
