I like that it is reliable and the price was right. It feels kind of sporty. The only thing I dislike is that the ride is a bit bumpy at times and can be a bit loud on the highway.

I bought the Mazda3 after a lot of research on Consumer Reports. The car consistently scored higher than most cars on reliability as well as gas mileage. Not only that, but the car has a very stylish look that's got the attention of a few of my friends. I initially thought about buying the Mazda6, but after sitting in the Mazda3, I found the spacing more to my liking, and the Mazda6 to actually be a little too big. The car drives and handles really well and, so far, has needed little maintenance other than oil changes.
