#648 of 653 Disappointed in interior color, lack of by pkguy Nov 05, 2009 (12:33 pm)
I'm really disappointed that the 2010 don't seem to have anything but a boring black interior. I currently have an 07 model with the tan and two-tone dashboard. It looks great and everyone always comments how nice my car looks inside, away from the boring grays and blacks so common now. It's enough to make me reconsider another make if'n when the time comes.

#650 of 653 gas mileage improving by dilbertsdub Nov 08, 2009 (6:49 am)
So I've now put close to 2,500 miles on my 3 and my gas mileage is flirting with 28.1 and 27.9. I'm quite pleased with this as I have the larger 2.5 engine and most of my commute is stop light to stop light.   I do have to agree with the previous poster about the lack of choices for color on the interior. Its one reason I had to wait for them to find my car as I refused the black interior,.. don't get me wrong though,..its cool at night with the blue ambient lighting but during the day I found it to be just a bit too much on the stark side even with all the metallic accents. I love the tan interior,..the two tones combined with the metal like trim pieces to brighten things up and also help to impart a more upscale feeling.   Also, is it just me or are the fog lights just for show? seems like they make no noticeable difference in visibility when there is fog.

Replying to: unicorn62 (Nov 10, 2009 3:34 pm) The fog lights on the car are driving lights, If you want fog lights you need the yellow lights for fog.   Wrong. The Mazda3 has fog lights, like just about every other car with an extra set of lights straight from the factory.   The difference between fog and driving lights is NOT the color of the lens, but the aim of the beam. Driving lights have a more direct beam that shines farther out than most headlights, similar to a high beam. Fog lights spread out the beam of light across the front of the car, and are aimed lower than most headlights, where fog visibility is most beneficial.   As for color? It's a myth. Click me or me for a little more info about the subject.

And, brace yourself if you're in a cold climate as your mileage will be affected.
