#579 of 649 Is the BOSE stereo that much better than the standard? by jbbevel Jun 25, 2009 (2:56 pm)
Trying to decide how much better the BOSE stereo would be compared to the stock am/fm cd .   Any 2010 owner's have an opinion? Replies to this message: relldon (Jun 25, 2009 5:03 pm) maz3hatch (Jun 26, 2009 5:49 pm)

Replying to: jbbevel (Jun 25, 2009 2:56 pm) I recently bought a 2010 Mazda 3 with sunroof and BOSE stereo. If you get the BOSE stereo with the sunroof it would be worth it as it is a little better than standardl But I wouldn't buy the BOSE stereo alone as I don't think that it is that much better than the standard stereo.

Replying to: jbbevel (Jun 22, 2009 10:06 am) Im getting the Crystal White Pearl, with tinted windows. the contrast of that is really going to make it pop out.   Celestial Blue is not bad either, nice to look at, but I don't see myself as a guy driving in that color.   Gunmetal Blue looks a bit dull to me. ------------------------------------------------- My top 3 were, the black, graphite or white.   I just went driving around town, and saw a lot of lexus with white body and tinted windows, especially with the speckle paint it should really pop out.   who cares if it's 200 bucks for the white, i think it's probably the best look.

Replying to: jbbevel (Jun 25, 2009 2:56 pm) im getting a mz3 hatch, I hear a lot of comments that the standard and the bose are not that big of a difference. I sat in a mz3 2010 and the standard quality is good enough for me.

Replying to: blackadder5639 (Jun 09, 2009 8:27 pm) A most educated and proper response regarding the market enthusiast that Mazda is targeting. What constructed discussion can be had if an opinion is already skewed before the discussion has had a chance to commence in an open forum?
#584 of 649 Re: What 2010 color do you like the best? [maz3hatch] by igozoomzoom Jul 06, 2009 (9:07 pm)
Replying to: maz3hatch (Jun 26, 2009 5:43 pm) The color is called Crystal White Pearl on both the 2009 and the 2010 models, but I saw a 2010 at the dealership last week in this color. It looks much better than it did on the '09 MZ3, less 'pearl' more 'white'. I wonder they just kept the color name, but altered the hue? Or am I just seeing things?
#585 of 649 Re: Real World MPG of 2010 Mazda 3 i [hiwaystar] by fuguf1sh Jul 31, 2009 (10:21 am)
Replying to: hiwaystar (Jun 20, 2009 5:38 am) That's decent... I have an 06 2.3 5-speed and get about 31 mpg at 75. If I keep the speed down to 64-65 I will average 34-35 mpg per tank on my highway commutes. I guess holding the line on mpg while delivering more displacement, HP and torque is pretty commendable.   Still trying to come to terms with the new styling...
#586 of 649 Mazda3 indicator illumination by murray15 Aug 02, 2009 (5:56 am)
On 2010 Mazda3 I Touring -- are the white on black indicators on the interior of the front doors supposed to illuminate at night so that they can be seen? (ie. mirror controls). They do so on our Honda Civic but they don't on the Mazda3 -- and we're trying to figure out if the indicators on the front door just aren't supposed to illuminate, or whether there is a problem. It can be challenging at night without the indicators on door being able to be seen. Thanks. Replies to this message: jbbevel (Aug 03, 2009 8:26 am)

Replying to: murray15 (Aug 02, 2009 5:56 am) Not sure about the i Touring... I have the Sport Hatchback and the illumination of the door handles (including the windows, and mirror adjustment) is done by a cool blue light that lights up at night. It's easy to see, and gives a very cool effect. There's also a directed blue light that lights up my manual stick shift... It's very cool.
#588 of 649 reliability customer satisfaction surveys by movinout77 Aug 18, 2009 (2:36 pm)
I thought I was just a few days from buying a new Mazda 3, but now I'm not so sure.   I've read that JD Power & Associates rates the Mazda 3 as being much less reliable than some of the other cars I'm considering (e.g., Corolla, Civic).   I also just read an article that came out today that Mazda is among the worst in terms of a recent customer satisfaction survey.   Yet, this car seems to get great reviews everywhere. Are the reviewers weighing performance and other factors much more heavily than reliability? This is not the way I'd prioritize things as a long-time Toyota guy who can't seem to get a fair price on a Corolla these days. Is there some sort of bias against Mazda in the way they came up with the ratings?   Thanks.
