Used 2007 Mazda MAZDASPEED3 for Sale near Ajax, ON
4.7 Overall rating
(60 reviews)Performance - for its class it is amazing build - does not have any major problems Fun factor - Its turbo spools up early for a quick response. Overall it is just a blast to drive and I definitely recommend it to anyone.
The performance is excellent with good power and a excellent level of torque. The Mazdaspeed3 also accelerates well and manages to cope with the high levels of toque, this gives it good straight line speed, making it feel more like a muscle car. The Handling is only OK, it has an attendance to understeer at moderate speeds, although I give credit to the Mazdaspeed3's stability through corners as the body remain flat and quite stable at most speeds. The limied slip differential also works very well. Steering seems sharp, accurate and well weighted, but could offer a bit more feel, so you know what’s happening at the front end. The brakes are good and brings the car to a halt quite quickly, they never seems to fade or feel overworked when being worked hard under constant heavy braking. On another note the brake pedal does feel a little soft at times and could be more responsive, and the brakes a little sharper. Build quality isn't bad but then it isn't good. The dash board and glove box coverings tends to scratch easy as cheap plastics are used. My drivers door rattles when the music is cranked up, and the driver seat lumber support does work as the acceleration pushed the mechanism back in the seat again (too much torque:). However on the plus side the leather seem good quality and everything is put together tight and neat including the exterior trim. The paint work is glossy and has a smooth and luscious finish to it. The Mazdaspeed3 looks mean and sporty yet tidy and scuttle from the outside. Xenon headlight and led tail lamps are standard on GT models, and these enhance the appearance of the Mazda, especially at night, but the xenons are aim too low for good "down the road visibility". On the inside the dials are pleasant, with warn amber and blue neon lights which enhances night time driving. The dash is simple and everything is neatly laid out, and overall is a fun place to be. Navigation controls are easy to use but takes time getting use to, and a nice feature is the way the navigation screen fold into the dashboard when not in use. The large 7" screen make information clear and easy to read and POI's can be retrieved quickly. The BOSE 222 watt sound system is good at all volumes and has great realistic bass (not window shattering), vocals and instruments sound good and clear with good timbre. However the system lacks low volume bass and all volume mid-range. Servicing is a good price when compared to cars, such as the Golf R32. Gas milage is not brilliant, but then it is a sports car so high MPG highway or city is not to be expected with a car like this. However it isn't pocket braking. Overall the car in fun the drive and has been a pleasure to own, with good rear legroom and a smooth and stable ride. The Mazdaspeed branded seats are also excellent. Mazda has a good dealer network with good customer service and support.
This has been a really great car. I have had no issues with it for the 40k miles I have owned it. I performs extremely well....better than I had expected. Just a joy to drive. Put the back seats down and the ample cargo space allows me to fit skateboards, guitars, amps, work equipment, etc....pretty much has the space of an SUV. Me, my girlfriend and the three kids ride in it comfortably every day. Just a great all-around car. Wish I could've afforded to keep it.
I love my car, i recomend it to everyone, it is fast, handles good, and can cary almost anything. It takes out any car in its class, even have kicked the crap out of a couple d-bags in 335s. great quality, even after 50,000 miles everything is workin good. all i did was paint the rims, put on a lip and tint, and i have one of the best lookin cars out there. Great on gas, over 30mpg's on highway when i take it easy, and around 22mpg when i am boostin. MORE THAN 285WHP in a front wheel drive that weighs around 3100lbs=Fun
-Fast Acceleration with 263hp/280Toque 2.3L turbo 18psi -Supportive Mazdaspeed Driver and Passenger seats. -Big Cargo Space on a sport car. -Reasonable gas consumption on a 263hp car. -Stiff suspension, minimal wheel gap on a stock car. -6 Speed manual, could still improve on a shorter shift throw. -Bose speakers, but not the best head unit, lack of bass. -Easy to grind on 3rd gear when power shifting.
