most beautiful exterior and good for money. my wife and I like the appearance as it;s really stylish. the power is just ok compare to previous generation mazda 3. feel last generation is stronger, and this one is not so strong when accelerate and making brakes. satisfy the exterior and interior design, which is the major concern for us to buy.

Loving my new Mazda. The car has all the features that all the new cars should have. Built in GPS with camera and red light detection which notifies me when I'm near one and on the path of the sensor and if I'm speeding and about to be over before I pass it. Only con is the car doesn't auto lock when I start driving.

Great car in terms of performance, only disappointment is the road noise. I wish there was a way to dampen this.
In car infotainment is starting to slow down after 3 years. Everything else still feels brand new. Lack of apple car play is definitely a negative, given that Mazda is listed in the Apple's Carplay website.

Great car, no noise overal good interior looks nice
Really affordable to run this car as one tank can last me a week
Only problem is when you open the back windows the car makes a lot of noise it could be the overall design of the car which should be fixed.

Just coming up to 3 years and not had a problem other than the battery recently went (Mazda even said they will cover the battery if it's within the 3 year warranty period). It's a reliable car, easy to maintain and fuel efficient. Sedan is a great option with good leg room at the back, fits plenty of shopping bags in the boot and if you take the back seats down, can even carry a bike.

The SP25 trim is the best bang for your buck. 2.5L engine, 18" wheels, rear spoiler, push start, and keyless entry is mostly what you get for the $2k increase in price from the Maxx range, and $5k less than the SP25 GT range.

In my 2 years of owning this car, I've had one problem where I couldn't start the engine. Called RAC roadside assistance and they needed to give the battery a jumpstart - it seems like I parked close enough to my room, and therfore, the keys, which drained the battery. It hasn't happened again, so I hope it's just one off.

Other than that, I have had no problems with the car at all. It would be best used if you can find a well-maintained car with a responsible owner.

Happy owner of a Mazda 3 SP25 GT. 0-100 in less than 8 seconds, city efficiency of around 7 per 100, best in class looks, best in class music system, touch screen and dial controlled infotainment system, adaptive xenon lights, day time running lights, massive 18 inch alloys, electric and heated seats, Bose audio system, leather interiors.... and the list goes on. The best car in its class.

Only dislike is the tyre noise on coarse Australian tarmac but then its got big alloys and fat tyres. The lower end models with 16inch rims are better at road noise.

I have a 2015 Mazda and I absolutely love it! I upgraded from my mazda 2 and I find it has much more leg room for the passengers. I love the touch screen and find the maps included very useful. The car is so fuel efficient that I barely have to fill up. I would absolutely recommend this car to anyone.

This car is an excellent medium sized vehicle. It has all the things you need, and then some. In built touch screen provides you with GPS, music, applications, fuel economy monitor, fuel consumption, service updates and engine details. Everything you need is a touch screen away.

The car handles excellent, and is super comfortable to drive. Very smooth. The road noise can be quite loud - if you're driving in silence. With the radio on a low volume, you don't even know. It's super reliable, and super cheap to fill the petrol tank. Very economical on fuel which saves you money for more fun things. Would definitely trade my mazda in for a new mazda in a few years, if the quality if still this good.

Car is good, noise pretty loud when driving above 100km/hr. Windscreen is the worst i have i ever seen, 2 chips with cracks now when rocks flew by. Very very fragile!!

I drove Ford falcon and hyundai icw30 in the past, rocks slammed on the windscreen, didn't even make a crack or chips, only very very tiny dint almost unnoticable with close inspection.

Performance and handling is perfect. Noise does not impact due to the sunroof rather than open window.
A CD player needs to be installed.
Running costs are relatively inexpensive due to free first service.
This make and model compares well with some of the luxury sedan that pertains to other makes.

Bought this car late 2015 and really am happy with it. One of the nicest cars i've ever driven, has a quality interior finish and just feels solid. Only draw back is the cabin noise but i love to drive with the fan on high so dont really notice it. Highly recommend.

Excellent performance and reliable on road with full comfort & relax with good steering
I like its dashboard however dislike the tiny legroom, they can enhance this cons by providing more space especially for big size people
its running cost is affordable and cheap compared to others of same category and reliable on road
