This is my 5th Mazda and 2nd Mazda 3. I am leasing a 2018 Mazda 6 for work but needed a 2nd car to keep the mileage down on the Mazda 6. My 2012 Mazda 3i Grand Touring is well equipped with luxuries. This car is very good on gas and it's fun to drive. It's no race car but the spirit of this car puts a smile on your face. It makes good use of its peppy engine so I can keep up with the traffic. This is a great 1st car, 2nd car or if you're on a budget. You can get a fully loaded model reasonably priced. Although you can't go wrong with a Corolla or Civic, Mazda puts a little more driving pleasure in their 3. You owe it to yourself to test drive it. I'll keep the 2012 for 5 - 7 years and return to CarMax for another preowned Mazda 3.

Pros

Reliability: I've never had any problems with my previous Mazda cars
Fuel Economy: The SkyActiv engine rewards you with performance and efficiency
Styling: It's still a looker after all these years

This is the first Mazda I've ever own. So far this car is as reliable as Toyota. I love everything about this car except the seat does not fit me really well because I am very short and my back and neck hurt when driving long hours. Now that I found a seat cushion to lift me a little, this issue is solved. You hear road noise but I expected it from a car in the class. I should add the Skyactive engine requires 0W-20 oil, which is a little expensive. I wish I had known that before I bought this car. However, this car saves me gas money and I enjoy driving.

This is the second Mazda3 I have owned. It is zippy, cute, is the right size for a single adult or small family, gets good gas mileage, is fun to drive and fits into small spaces yet can carry more than you might expect. I also love all the bright fun colors it comes in, especially the cobalt and teal blues.

Pros

Ride and Handling: It is fun to drive, can do sharp turns and U turns easily.
Fuel Economy: High mpg

Cons

Cargo Space: Not much space for big loads
Seat Comfort: Don't have heated seats or lumbar support built in
