CarReview's opinion of the: 2010 Mazda MAZDA3
- Breaks the bang-for-buck barrier into a billion bits
- Six-speed manual
- Top-shelf interior
- Quieter cabin
- Tight back seat
- Styling a bit hard to warm up to - particularly in the i Touring trim.
Ruling: A car that everyone, and we do mean everyone, can love.
If you've labored tirelessly for years just so you can afford a status-symbol sled like a BMW 3-series, stop wasting your precious life for such an empty ego boost. Instead, save your money, go out and buy a fully-loaded MAZDA3s GT, and always remember, "Just because it isn't fancy doesn't mean it isn't high quality." Words to live by, especially in times such as these.
