Get the Quadrifoglio.
Thinking about buying one of these

Get the Mazda 6 instead. Great car.

But what does that 3-4 year old econobox for 12k do better than a 3k civic?
Carson Russell
The new Civic is better and I'm not even joking.
Kayden Perez
By this metric. We should all be riding honda cubs. But not everyone wants a cub or a civic.
Let it be.
Thanks for your opinion.

Yeah I'm not OP but if I were in the market for a new Mazda it would be between the 3 hatchback and the 6.

Most critics suck its cock, and also this:

And the 3 is on Car and Driver's 10best, and has been forever.
If you buy something else, short of an Audi for double the price, you're probably getting a worse car.

Civic, MT Focus, Corolla.

I'll never understand why Americans use fuel efficiency as a pejorative.

Compact cars in the US used to be much worse and people haven't gotten over it quite yet even though compacts are much better than they were historically as well as bigger.
For example Pinto, AMC gremlin, Chevy Vega
Gas has also been historically cheaper in the US with higher commuting distances making compacts less appealing. US automarkers arguably couldn't produce a decent compact car or didn't have an interest to do so until German (beetle) and Japanese competition as well.
I'm in the same boat, they share an engine, have very similar trim options and mpg numbers but the 3 hatch is slightly cheaper, lighter and is a hatch while the 6 is bigger and quieter.
The Civic hatch is a bit much visually, from a numbers point of view it's hard to say it isn't better though
