Why should I also consider these? X

The Hyundai Elantra is a good value in the compact range of cars, and while you might be attracted to its price and warranty, the Elantra is not as refined as the Mazda 3.

However, the Elantra Touring is an extremely versatile and sporty vehicle, rivaling the five-door Mazda 3.

The Honda Civic could be the Mazda 3's closest competitor in terms of quality and on-the-road character.

You may or may not like the Civic's two-tier instrument panel, so try it first.

The Ford Focus is another competent competitor and a likable mainstream product aimed at mainstream shoppers.

Neither its styling nor its handling is as sporty as the Mazda 3's, but the Focus does offer a two-door coupe body style and an attractive, comfortable interior.

The VW GTI is a robust and enjoyable two- or four-door hatchback that feels a bit more mature than the 3, even though it’s about the same size.

Finally, the Civic Si is an alternative to the Mazdaspeed3; it isn’t nearly as fast, but with its high-revving engine, great handling, and excellent tactile experience, it’s a blast to drive.
