2004 Mazda 3 sedan review from Slovakia
"Excellent design and good handling"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing yet.
General comments?
Sporty design +++
Handling and grip is great at dry surfaces (16" 205/55)
Traction stabilization +++
Not as powerful engine as I would like to be.
Some parts in interior looks cheap (top of gear box lever-leather+plastic) (door handles-plastic) (handbrake end is made of plastic) (chrome would be nice)
