Explain to me why you haven't bought a Mazda 3 yet?

But I did

Literally zero options

Should have gotten a 2017, they really cut down on road noise

Got a 2017 civic sedan instead. Best purchase I ever made. Was going to get a 2017 passat or used 1.8 a4 until I gave this a test drive. Ridiculous how a 20k ecobox is better than a 50k "premium" car

My 06 mazda3, it's a fun fwd car. Not much power but you can take it to it's limits, not much in the way of modifications but regardless a bretty gud daily driver

How do the flappy paddles feel for shifting?

Drove the shit out of a 2012 mazda3 hatch for years before it got totaled by a mustang. One of my favorite cars. My only complaint was it felt a little too light/flimsy

Pretty decent for a slushbox. I'm driving in a city so I'm not really using them

does the motor in these have any potential for more power? I would like 6 speed 2.5 hatch

Get a 1.5 civic if you want to mess around. 230hp with reflash
