Love it
I have a 2016 Mazda 3 and love it. It handles perfectly, and hasn't given me any issues at all so far. It is reliable and great on running costs. I would recommend the Mazda 3 Maxx to anyone who is considering purchasing a new car. Mine is in white and it looks great

Great Small sedan
Car is great with amazing features for the money you pay for it. You get all the new fancy safety features of new cars for a fraction of the price when comparing to European models. It's great on fuel and drives great. It feels like you are in a more expensive car then what you pay for it

Car is good
I really like the car, good rear reviews, GPS, traction, fuel economy is pretty good too! I drive long distances for work and find this car to be quite safe to drive. I don't particularly like Mazda itself, I found the dealers to be really pushy and the customer service overall wasn't all that great. The girl that did all the after sales e.g. tinting was even more pushy and I didn't get a friendly vibe from her.

Good family car
A nice family car. A little squishy if you have two kids car seats in the back. Would be good if there were back ducts for aircon. The reverse camera is great and the sat nav also comes in handy when it tells you the correct direction. It's a shame that customer service is lacking with Mazda.

Great car, pity about the fuel economy
The Mazda 3 SP25 SkyActiv is a nice car to drive, it looks modern, has comfortable seats, has good driver vision and a nice clear instrument panel. Controls on the steering wheel and stalks are well situated and easy to use. There’s plenty of power with the SP25 but the trade-off is the poor fuel economy. I traded in a 10 year old Honda Civic and expected the fuel economy to be better than the Civic. It's not! The city specs for the Mazda is 6.5 l/100km but I'm getting a consistent 9.0 l/100km around town. Admittedly the engine is 2.5 compared ...Read more
to the Civic's 2 litre engine. The Mazda 3 SP25’s features that I like and find useful are: • Automatic sensing windscreen wipers (These can be adjusted to vary the intermittent rate to the driver’s preference. Very useful, love it!) • Automatic sensing headlights, • The heads up display is one option that sold the car to me. It makes it much easier to keep your eyes on the road and not down at the instrument panel. • Rear parking sensors and vision on the LCD display. • Paddle shift gears on the steering wheel. I use these in conjunction with the brakes to slow down on hills and corners. I used to drive a manual so this is the best of both a manual and an automatic. • The control knob for the touch screen is well placed and very useful. I find this a much better alternative than reaching for the touch screen while driving. It also avoids finger prints on the screen. • Sat Nav is useful and I'm sure I'll use all its options one day. It does alert me to school zones and displays the street map on screen while driving which is useful at times. The map is updated with each Mazda service.Similar opinion?

Awesome Japanese Car
My car is Mazda 3 SP25 GT. This is the best Japanese car I have ever driven. I replace it with my holden svz and find out that how fuel efficient Mazda is. Highly recommended car for anyone. I am planning to buy a Mazda 6 for my wife soon.

This car is Fantastic!!
I love my new car, handles like a dream, has the safety pack and has stopped me from having an accident. Great fuel economy. Mazda customer service is excellent. I had hit a bucket on the road at night and I couldn't stop in time, the bucket had bounced on to my bonnet twice and the roof leaving scratches on the car. Mazda said they fix the scratches free of charge.

Awesome, zippy, fun car which is a pleasure to drive
I upgraded from a Mazda 2, which I kept for 4 years. I loved it at the time, but after moving up to the Mazda 3, the old one felt like a tractor.
The Mazda 3 is super smooth, very easy to drive and looks super sexy too. I love the 6-speed manual transmission, which is fast and fun in the city and quiet on the highways.
The integrated MZD sound system and GPS is the first time I've used a built-in GPS, and I'm a convert now - it's so much easier to use than a portable unit. I set the volume on the GPS to zero and just use the map as a prom...Read more
pt. BlueTooth integration to the phone is a bit patchy, so I use the USB cable to connect my phone directly. The MZD jog-dial control is very easy to use, but has limited controls over the phone, so I normally cue up a bunch of podcasts and listen to them in order - it's no easy to change podcasts while driving unfortunately. Overall I'm really happy with this car, and it's confirmed to me that Mazda are on a roll with their current series of cars. I'd only sell this car to upgrade to a slightly larger Mazda, eg the 6 or CX5.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!
