Used Mazda Mazda3 for Sale in Palm Beach, FL

I like the way the car handles and performs. It can make U-turns and cut corners with ease even at high speeds. I like the way it looks; the color is Gun Metal Blue. It's faster than most four-cylinder non-turbo injected cars, so I can zip around pretty good in it. The car has been reliable and mostly maintenance-free with the exception of oil changes, tire rotations, and two factory recalls, which I explained in a different question.

I bought this car to replace my 10 year old, reliable Honda. I went from a luxury sedan to a much smaller Mazda 3. That was hard to get used to. I feel the quality of the car body itself wasn't made with excellent standards in mind. The carpet is more of a felt material and impossible to vacuum clean. The seat cloth had fuzz balls within a month. The paint on the hood is chipping in multiple places. It feels as if it is made of plastic on the outside. The piece under my grill fell off while I was driving and almost caused an accident. Inside is not roomy in the least. I am 5 ft. 6 and there is just no way to get comfortable in this car. I can not imagine driving it if I were any taller. I originally bought it to drive for a few years and hand down to my son when he was 16 but he is already taller than I am and we are going to have to revise that plan now. I have to duck while I am getting out of the car, and if I have my hair in a bun too high on my head it is constantly knocked around by the ceiling. There is no lumbar support in the seat, which is a big negative for me because I spend many hours in this car a day. On a more positive note, I got a really good deal on this purchase and it seems to have held its value pretty well.
