2015 Mazda 3 named one of Car and Driver's "10 Best"-

For the second straight year, the Mazda 3 has been rated on of the "10 Best" by Car and Driver magazine, and there are any number of reasons why.

Starting at just $16,945, the Mazda 3 offers phenomenal value.  While, as with any car, you can add different options packages, the base model still offers plenty to get you excited. 

The 2.0 liter 4-cylinder engine offers plenty of get up and go with 150 horsepower (there is also an optional 2.5 liter 4-cylinder boosts that by another 29 horses- ok, so that's fun!).  At 29 mpg city/41 highway, it offers a great combination of performance and economy.

The interior looks great, with an eye towards keeping the driver's eyes on the road, and a great looking instrument cluster. 

 

Overall, Car and Driver gives a glowing assessment of the Mazda 3.  "Indeed, Mazda is punching above its weight class when it comes to product. For a company that builds one-sixth the number of vehicles of giants like General Motors, Toyota, and Volkswagen, its achievements are nothing short of shocking".  Visit our website and take a look at our great selection of this impressive car.  

Following in the footsteps of larger Mazda SUVs the CX-3 offers great performance and value.  It features a taller profile than most others in it's class, which provides more of a real SUV feel, rather than a slightly larger compact car.  The zippy 2.0 liter 4-cylinder engine provides plenty of pep, along with a very efficient 29 mpg in the city.  The suspension and handling gives a great nearly sports car-like feel. 

Safety options available on the CX-3 that aren't available on most competitors include blind-spot monitoring and lane-departure warning, while a backup camera is standard.  There is plenty of cargo space, with nearly 15 cubic feet with all of the seats in place, and over 44 cubic feat with the rear seats folded down.
