2007 Mazda 3 review from North America
"Nice ride"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing, the car is great.
General comments?
Please get the trunk popper remote. You will really miss it like I do if you don't get it.
Don't fall in love with the black sporty model. The paint is very thin, and the first time someone dings you, you will have white chips cut into the paint. This color shows everything, and does not hold up well.
This car really shines when you take it to the mountains; it cruises up the mountain roads, and doesn't need to shift a whole lot when climbing. The transmission gears down when you're coming down from the mountains, and saves you from overusing your brakes. I really wasn't excited about my car until I took it to the mountains.
