Detailed review: |
I purchased a Mazda 3i with a manual transmission just two months ago ($14,400 in New Jersey) and I thoroughly enjoy the car (I have already put over 3,000 miles on it). I had been searching for a car with more power but since I was only working with a small budget, I believed my options to be limited to the point where I was willing to sacrifice all other automotive comforts. Then I came across the Mazda 3i and found that I could get much more. I do a lot more highway than City driving and absolutely love everything about the car—the acceleration; which is perfect whether from a stop or in full driving mode; it’s great looks inside and out; handling; responsiveness; and great sound system which fits all in a compact car that can squeeze into the smallest parking space in New York City. Lastly, I agree with many other reviewers with regard to the air conditioning not chilling as well as it should but for me, all the other many pluses outweigh this flaw. This car is made for people like me who constantly feel the need for speed—ZOOM ZOOM!! |
