I got 150,000 miles and still going strong on my 2004 mazda3 2.3 hatch. Rusty brake rotors, A few failed motor mounts, and a roasted blower (AC/heat) motor were the biggest problems I encountered. Overall, still a very healthy car for it's age.

gotta love Michael Fisher he's a legend

Im trying to find a used review for this car and I couldn't believe it was him!!!

MICHAEL FISHER The heck he can drive manual and has two phones as well. Good show sir.

I've owned my 2008 2.3 hatch for almost 6 months now. Just hittin 100k. Absolute fun to drive. The torque is great.

I have the 2006 Mazda 3 S Sedan and I absolutely love my car. I picked it up used in 2009 at 32k miles and kept it well maintained. To this day friends and family who haven't seen it before can't believe the features I have (heated seats, Navigation) for a 2006 car. Steering is tight, sporty features, low maintenance you name it. It really does everything better than the Civic. I refuse to recommend any other 4 cylinder car.

Whoa didn't expect to see Michael Fisher! Threw me for a loop immediately!!

That's the phone guy

We have an ‘05 and an ‘08 and love them both. Fun to drive and if you keep the oil changed and they go and go. Coming up on 130K on the ‘05 and just hit 100K on the other.

gonna buy one in several days also mazda 3 hatchback sport version, from Germany. No rust at all, just gonna do full service here in Estonia and hope she will last a lifetime

Michael Fisher From Mr.Automobile to Mr.Mobile

I love my 09 Mazda3 mines is the same color as the test car with the same features it has but mines is the sedan and the 2.0 engine it has been great and couldn't complain about anything I love to drive it on the highway and streets n it's good on gas n I only pay like 19 dollars to fill up my car n it lasts like a week since I drive 5 days back and forth to work

If I could find a hatchback, in that purple color at the end, I'd be sold.

MR MOBILE CAR REVIEWS?!

I have seen that in Japan they do the 2.0 and 2.3 (aspirated) running almost like a speed3. It's just about buying the right parts and doing the corresponding maintenance.

WTF is Fisher doin here?

We at one point had a mazda 3 hatchback but it was rusting so we put a lot of miles on it because we had to go from Northville to flatrook.

I love my 2.3L 04 Mazda 3 to bits. It is definitely a sporty enthusiast's car. If he/she wants to do some tuning to it then its worth it. Pretty easy to work on, all ready peppy as is, and sounds excellent for a 4cyl with a cat/res delete and a Magnaflow Muffler. My issues are only the usual rust around the rear wheel wells. But the body will go long before the engine...also tuning parts for it are pricey.

I have been searching for a 2nd generation Mazda6 (2008-2012) used car review but I couldn't find it. Could you please do one or send me the link if you already have done one?

I love my Mazda 3 GS.

Please do a used car review of the 2001-2005 Lexus IS300!

Superb car.

I have an NA Miata but I wish I could afford one of those or a GTI as a secondary vehicle lol

@DJG Are you joking? 1000 times more reliable than a golf.

oh and we also traded the mazda in for a lincon LSV8 and than traded the LSV8 in for a 2013 /12 MKZ and traded the MKZ for a 2015 MKZ wich we may keep.

Didn't mention the many rust issues?

That lady has a soothing voice.

I have a 06 mazda 3 and the cluch went bad wat kaind of cluch we chould put so it last longer

i have an 2004 mazda 3 with a 3.4l engine. it's a great little car and a lot of fun with the manual transmission.

yeah i was just about to buy a honda civic last november of 2015 but really disliked the handling of the vehicle...i ended up with 2004 mazda 3 gt 2.3 hatchback. really good control and goes really fast when took it out on the racetrack. but obviously for downfall, for any fast car if you speed or race, it will eat lots of gas

The 2.3 is the same engine found in the Ford Focus. Great reliable engine and very torquey.

Just bought 2006 Mazda 3, 1.4i, 105000km, gave 3800€ for it. Hope it will be a good car

Had a 2007 GT for 3 years - test drove an Impreza today and still preferred the 3. It's been bloody amazing, very few issues and so much fun to drive. Probably just going to replace it with another one.

How would the Toyota Matrix GTX 2009 model compare if fully loaded? I guess mostly it's from the technical standpoint that I'm wondering about.

Typhoon792 I've tested my sister's Toyota Matrix GTX 2009 and it does not compare with the Mazda 3. The steering and handling on the Mazda 3 is way better in my opinion. Mazda 3's are also known for very good accelerations, something you will notice when you test drive one.

aspec82 Yeah, the handling on the XRS sucks! (Btw, I meant XRS - not sure if you meant the same. GTX is for the Pontiac Vibe.) Ironically, the "improved steering" that they make for the top model (along with other things) only make it worse. It's actually nicer/better imo on the S model version.

They forgot to mention that the Grand Touring also has HID front headlights and LED taillights.They also orgot to mention it also has auto headlights (as well as the auto wipers that they mentioned). Lastly BOSE premium sound sytem on the GT.... buy the Grand Touring.

Erik Staal Super happy with this car, doesn't feel like it's almost 12 years old, it still looks modern (I own the hatchback, silver/metal). Confortable interior and well equipped. Transmission feels great. Have to get some new suspension and a CV-Axle which is getting a pretty noisy and needs to be changed. Other than that the car is in top condition, very reliable. Smooth engine, has some good power when revved up.

I'm planning on buying a 2005 Mazda 3 2.0l sport as my first car. Does anybody know if this car has any common problems that other Mazda 3 owners have experienced. It would help me a lot on choicing my first car.

I purchased a 2008 Mazda 3 for my daughter in 2009. The gas mileage is horrible and maintenance is expensive. There is always a problem with the tire pressure. Normally, there's a problems with the Tire Pressure Monitor Sensor (s) (TPMS). Sometimes when she purchase new tires the individual replacing the tires forget to reinstall the TPMS. The TPMS cost more than one hundred dollars at the Mazda Dealership, expensive. There have been several recalls on my daughter's Mazda and the dealership made the necessary repairs without any problems. The Mazda may be great cars for some people, however it's not a car for us. Therefore, my daughter and I have decided to never purchase another Mazda.

You get your work done at dealer, you're asking to get your eyes poked out. Your fault not the cars. How are you gonna blame the car for someone forgetting to put a sensor back in
