I was recently in a terrible head on collision in this model... thanks to the amazing safety features in it, my fiancé and i were able to walk away with minor bumps and bruises.

A 2016 Mazda3 is an economic, but spunky little auto that rates high both in reliability and fun. Bonus features increases its desirability. Great maneuverability. Breaking a 35-year Honda Civic habit to enjoy this relatively unknown model.
