Are these good cars?
Thinking of getting a 2013 Skyactiv Mazda 3 hatchback in this color.
It's either that or a Scion iM

Do you live somewhere where rust is an issue? If not, go for it. If so, it's a little risky because mazda3s are known for rusting easily
>entirely fake side intakes
Why.
>>15447048
Because those are just plastic inserts for where the optional fog lights go
>>15447048
You can replace them for foglights.

>skyactive
Into the trash it goes.

Mazda is so cheap it couldn't even come standard?

Only the first gen.

The reliability of a Toyota
The driving feel of a BMW
At the cost of a Hyundai
Haters gonna hate

This. It's a perfect car if you don't mind the interior and rust isn't a problem

OP here
I live in Chicago. Salted roads is a yearly occurrence .
>>15447133
Used Mazdas currently have the highest reliability rankings. Eat it chumley.

In that case I wouldn't recommend it, unless it's 100% rust free when you buy it and you get it sprayed with an anti rust coating
>>15447015
the iM has godawful blind spots, but is still a nice car
>>15447133
Post-Ford Mazda is neck and neck with Toyota.
>>15447126
The interior isn't bad for a econobox and the rust is only a first gen issue.

>the rust is only a first gen issue
Really? In that case go for it OP
>>15447094
It's a fucking economy car retard
>>15447295
And only like the first 2 years
>>15447115
>The driving feel of a BMW
LOL
>>15447090
Lel MZR owners get butthurt
OP skyactiv is a great engine and the six speed auto is excellent if that's the route you go.
