2007 Mazda 3 Maxx review from Australia and New Zealand
"Best medium sized car available for under 30G (AUD)"
General comments?
Very comfortable interior.
Roomier than most small/middle sized cars.
Handles great with barely any body roll at all when flying around corners.
Fast acceleration in first and second, slightly slower in higher gears.
Tiptronic gearbox is really responsive and quick, by far one of the best I've used.
Large boot.
Great stock audio system, however it's a lot of work to modify/customise it.
Indicator noise is slightly annoying, however, you get used to it after a while.
Quite a few modifications (turbos, exhaust systems, intakes, suspension, body kits, etc) available.
No trip computer and similar features is really poor and inexcusable for Mazda Australia.
Great safety features.
