Here’s what Car and Driver Magazine has to say about the 2011 Mazda3:<\/p>\n
The latest\u00a0Mazda3 arrives with more than just a shiny new wrapper. It\u2019s more refined, too. In both 148-hp i and 167-hp s versions, the basic Mazda 3 feels more like a genuine car than most of the econoboxes it competes with on price\u2014a bare-bones i starts at $16,045, and the s begins at $19,790. Material quality, ride quality, and chassis control are all a class above. If there are beancounters at Mazda, they don\u2019t get anywhere near the suspension. Getting behind the wheel of the Mazda 3 is a comforting reminder that there is a fun-to-drive car for every economic stratum.<\/p>\n
And then there\u2019s the Mazdaspeed 3 in all of its 263-hp glory. It’s hard to find a more complete performance package that seats four in comfort. You’d have to spend thousands more to get anything comparable.<\/p>\n
The presence of two cars with a 3-based designation on the 10Best list might suggest that we\u2019re suckers for any vehicle with a 3 in its name. But it\u2019s just a coincidence. Like the BMW 3-series, the Mazda 3 delivers an exceptional package in all of its trim levels.<\/p>\n
