Questions & Answers

What people are asking about this car
2008 Mazda3 leater or no leather?
I have the money for the leather so it wouldn't be a problem. Some people online say it flings you around when you're taking sharp turns and I definitely don't want that. Are they just jealous that their Mazda's don't have leather?

You dont fling around or move anywhere with leather. Buy the car with leather if you want it. Reference:Mazda Sales

54,000 miles on a 2008 mazda 3 too much?
I just purchased a 2008 mazda 3 like a week ago and right now it has 54,000 miles. I plan on at least getting 10 to 12 thousand miles a year. Is it still too much?
Source: Yahoo! Answers, 7 answers

No.. HIgh mileage is overrated!! If the car is kept in great shape (oil changes, tune ups, etc etc) it should last quite some time. My 04 Mazda 3 has just over 120k miles. The car runs like it only has 30k miles. Engine is so quite. Even the Wife asked me, "is the car on?" lol.. hehe...

Why should I also consider these? X

The compact car market is more crowded than a can of sardines.

Choices include pure sedans, three-door hatchbacks, five-door hatchbacks (wagons), and even mini-SUVs.

It is impossible to cover every competitor in this limited space, so the editors from TheCarConnection.com cherry-picked a range of choices.
