I've never even tried it on the wife's 3s model, and I know she never has. Just put it into D and go. The weight distribution must be almost 50/50 in the car as I almost never feel the car shift going up the power band. Very smooth and has been since day 1, eventhough we had the tranny fluid serviced a couple of weeks ago. Our service policy called for it at the 30k mark and car drives as good as new. Still need to replace the air filter though. The Sandman

Replying to: thegraduate (Sep 18, 2007 7:12 am) Reason I'm leaning towards Civic, compared to: Corolla - want some extras like mp3; lame reasons: new one is coming out soon; sister owns one Mazda3 - I'm biased and feel a bit uncomfortable being in a car that Ford has a large hand in; more $ than Civic LX and Corolla I like the fact that Civic has 1) ABS, and 2) extra airbags, 3) AUX in and MP3 cd player Any advice anyone can share ?

Replying to: jlawrence01 (Sep 19, 2007 7:12 am) Agreed. They are all excellent choices for different buyers. The Mazda3 has a long history of reliability and quality in spite of Mazda's long affiliation with Ford. For an independent view, see Consumer Reports which rates them all highly. |

If you don't like it, don't buy it. The Mazda3 i Touring is same price as a Honda Civic LX. I like the fact that Civic has 1) ABS, and 2) extra airbags, 3) AUX in and MP3 cd player The Mazda3 also has all of the following. 99% of all Mazda3 i models are ordered with the ABS/SAB/SAC package, and comes with a standard AUX input. You can upgrade to the MP3 player.

Replying to: riddlermyth (Sep 19, 2007 11:29 am) Like I said, if you don't like the Mazda3, simply scratch it off your list. Only you can determine what vehicle is best for you. The Corolla, Civic, and Mazda3 are all excellent choices.
