Got a Mazda 3 hatchback 2019 this past winter. Still haven't come down from the high. Smooth ride, AWD, amazing stock speakers, luxury feeling interior. Hope to get at least 15 years with it.

Approaching 4 years of ownership on my manual 2.0 Mazda 3. I do literally everything with that car... City driving, canyon roads, track days. I could not agree more on you saying its a well rounded car, it does everything I could ever ask of it! I owned other cars on the side, like an MX-5 and an older Boxter. You can learn to drive the Mzd3 and have fun in it, then its hard to switch to any other car in the class. With good summer and winter tires, it's even enough to fulfill my weekend car needs most of the time. So I got rid of the other cars eventually. Even if they were technically a bit more fun, the 3 was just so much more practical and calm when i wanted it to be at the same time. Mazda advertises that car as 120hp in EU to get around some engine and insurance taxes. In reality it does between 155-165hp, I put mine and a friends on a dyno, and the guys there said thats pretty normal apperantly.

Sport mode with the 2.5 keeps things pretty punchy too. I did manage to find one with black leather seats instead of white which I didn't like. In late 2013 all gt's at the dealerships where the white leather. Well almost all lol.

Still very happy with my Mazda 3 after 3 years of ownership. We didn't have 2.5 version in Poland, but my 2.0 is remapped @175 HP and with manual transmission, so no complaints (less weight too) ;) NVH could be better but it's not terrible, just more noticeable at higher speeds. I also had a rental Hyundai i30 (that's Elantra GT in Europe) and it's a nice car, comfortable but quality of materials in noticeably below these in Mazda.

@@ekman8851 no turbo, I've got naturally aspirated 2.0 petrol engine (PE series, Skyactiv-G). I remapped the ECU and results may vary, but from what I've heard and seen, usually 170-180 HP can be achieved. Keep in mind this is NA engine, so these "additional horses" are mostly in higher rev range. It can be applied to both 120HP and 165HP versions as this is basically the same engine with a different map tune.

@@ekman8851 mine was originally 120HP spec but when dynoed it spit out 151 out of factory, power curve getting flat around 4500 rpm (that's where the difference with 165HP version is, they don't have that flat high rev range). With new ECU map it goes up until 6200 🤩 By the way - in my opinion 120 HP is better base for mods, because transmission has longer gears, which is better for cruising with higher speeds and fuel economy 👍 (that's why I chose this version)

I honestly don't know how you can say that. I had the same car (2015) and every time I drove it the word "adequate" was the only thing that came to mind. Not a fun car (the engine doesn't like to rev and the heavy flywheel does it no favors). It was also loud (addressed with the later refresh). In no way would this car make me forget an e90 (or newer) 335i unless you have one without the sports package. You may as well drive a Buick.

I crossshopped these three in 2018 (pre Mazda3 refresh) and I didn't want the Civic because they are selling them at sticker and without getting the Type R you can't get a stick and Android Auto/Apple Carplay compatibility. The issue with the Elantra was that the only two available with sticks within range to dealer swap were two grey ones, one regular, one sport. I ended up with the Mazda in the touring trim (when you could pick your trim with a manual) and I have 0 regrets. Love my Mazda.

I have aftermarket rims with the OEM tires, which I don't like too much and Blizzak WS90's on my stock rims. It has a JUN B.L. axle-back and SXTH Element CPTL enclosed intake and those 2 mods added even more driving enjoyment! My best mileage is 40 mpg with the cruise on and going 70 mph, far above the 33 mpg rating. I can't say enough about my car, daily driven in Chicagoland and has been rock, solid in reliability too👍👍

So last week I traded in my 2017 Mazda Hatch 6MT (base model) for a 2015 Acura ILX 2.4 6MT. The ILX is a bit overlooked. It’s not a hatch, but anyone looking into these cars should take a look at it. It’s around the same price and honestly it feels like a completely different class of vehicle. Btw, I really did enjoy my Mazda for over 3 years!
@RoyalFizzbin
@RoyalFizzbin 4 жыл бұрын
Hunter Manzano The ILX *is* overlooked, but isn’t it just a Civic in a suit? Note that I am not saying that as a bad thing... just more as a “know what it really is” kind of thing. Also, if I am not mistaken, it has a K series under the hood. I had a last-production-year RSX-S with a similar K engine (less torque, same power, higher compression, lower displacement, higher redline), and I found it so, so frustrating around town. It was really only when I my foot was all the way down merging onto the highway that the car really felt like it was something. What do you think about that 2.4 liter K series around town, specifically? Right now, for somewhere in the same ballpark money, I am looking at the new Kia Forte GT manual (sedan), assuming I keep my job, when this current situation is over.

@HDmanzano1995 4 жыл бұрын
PrimusPilusVorenus I find that it’s pretty easy around town thus far. It really wants to be revved. Compared to the 2.0 in my Mazda 3 I definitely prefer it. The clutch and shifter in the ILX is leaps and bounds better than the Mazda’s. Regarding the “civic in a suit” thing I hear a lot...it’s really not. My fiancé has a 17 Civic (base sedan) and there’s no comparison when it comes to ride quality. Much smoother, and heavier feeling. Material qualities are A big step up as well. Also, the civic has a CVT. The 2016 and up ILX have an 8-speed dual clutch. It would definitely be worth it to give them on a test drive seeing as you can get a 16-17 low mile ILX for $15-$17k. Take it for a spin and you’ll feel a pretty big difference when you hop in that Kia. 6MT was only made 13-15. You might have a little trouble finding one, but proving is usually really reasonable.

The superstar is the Canadian made 2.0NA 6MT Civic LX Sedan, which comes with extremely comfortable heated seat and upgraded entertainment system. Also, NA engine is easier to drive in the city vs UK made Hatchback, mostly because of that K20C2 engine's linear powerband. Carry-on can sit on it's leg within the trunk and the Sedan cost $3k less then the equally equipped Hatch. Dynamically, LX is just as well tuned as the Si without the LSD, which isn't need for slower stuff.

I would have had to pay $10K more to get the MT now (only available in top-of-line hatch now). Only complaint is the front cup holder location. It's a little uncomfortable shifting with a plastic straw poking your arm, so I stick with cans as much as possible.

I'm a Mazda fan (with the exception of the CX-9). I've owned several Mazdas over the years ranging from an AWD Minivan to a rotary powered sports car. And based on the comments I'd have to agree that the Mazda3 may be the best value among the three hatchbacks considered here. So my question is why the sales of the current generation Mazda3 are so abysmal. Total sales for the Mazda3 in 2019 barely topped 50,000 units in the US, down 21% compared to 2018. For 2020 sales will undoubtedly be MUCH worse. And please don't tell me it's because Mazda has turned away from Zoom Zoom Mazdaspeed models. Mazda didn't abandon Mazdaspeed vehicles because they were big sellers. Just the opposite. If adding a performance model Mazda3 increased sales by 40% (a fantasy) Mazda would still have sold fewer total units than the KIA Forte (by 25,000 units), the VW Jetta (by 30,000 units) and the Hyundai Elantra by a whopping 100,000 units. Honda CIvic and Toyota Corolla sales. Forget it. No one should expect to top sales of Civics and Corollas but something is seriously wrong if they cannot more more than 50K Mazda3's. I happen to be a hatchback fan. But I'll hold onto my GTI, thank you. Much better performance. Greater versatility and in my experience totally reliable.

But, I am a Mazda mechanic and most of the time they only come in for service, the most common job except for servicing is rear brakepad and dics-changes, since the owners don't brake hard enough to motion the rear brakes. Every single owner I've talked to is super happy with their car aswell. So, nothing is seriously wrong with the cars (edited for spelling correting)

Did he say the Civic is cheaper than the Elantra? MSRP and what they actually sell for are two different things. I cross shopped the Civic and Elantra GTS with the 1.6turbo. MSRP was just under 25K, but out the door with taxes I was at $21,5xx. All the honda dealers I visited would only budge about $750 below MSRP. With comparable features a Civic would have cost me just under 25K before tax and title.

👍...Add B-spec suspension tech to these csrs and they would be fantastic on back roads. And why do manufacturers skimp on seat tech; the one place most/all driver's get their feedback. Put more thought into the seats and people will see past economy grade other stuff...how hard is it to put adjustable lumbar in a seat?

Why on earth are you comparing an old Mazda3 with a new civic? The new Mazda3 is a spaceship compared to the old one. I just think it is a bad comparison. Disclosure: I have never owned a Mazda, I have owned a Civic back in 2008. I currently do not druve a car from any of these three manufacturers. My opinion on these cars (including the new Mazda3, I drove one last summer): Mazda 3: a great drive, good trunk space, lota of features, quality materials and man... claustrophobic back seats (new version), comparable to the Toyota c-hr. And not much of space for legs, too. Hyunday: a sensible, vanilla car which checks out all the boxes Honda: great to drive, a bit noisy, cheap materials, bad seats. From these three I would buy a Mazda 3 or if I would like my interior to be vomit free from the passengers seated in the back seat, a Hyundai. If I would not like to make compromises I would just go for the Golf.

Skip the Civic. The exterior is hideous, the interior is below quality compared to the Elantra GT and the Mazda 3, and for some reason the automatic is a CVT where the GT is a dual clutch and the Mazda is a true 6 speed.
