2007 Mazda 3 review from North America
"See what Nissan, Toyota, Mitsubishi and Honda have to offer first"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Check engine light came on at 2000 miles, and then went off.
General comments?
Hard ride, sloppy transmission shifting, hard to close the trunk, pedals dangerously to close to each other.
This is really a Ford under the skin, so don't think you're buying a import.
