2007 Mazda 3 3sgt sedan review from North America
"This is one fun car to drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
This car has been mechanically flawless since I purchased it in May 07.
General comments?
I like the performance. The car has good balance between power, handling and economy however driving on snowy and icy roads is extremely uncomfortable compared to past vehicles. It slides around like a hockey puck, whether braking or accelerating. This may be due to the Goodyear P205/50R17 Eagle RS-A tires it came with.
Interior room is excellent, easily accommodating 4 adults and trunk room is amazing, easily taking lawn chairs and coolers. However on the long haul, seats could be more comfortable.
