Even a base model still looks that good, tbh i would rather have this over the KIA/Hyundai the Mazda just looks much more attractive and the material they use is more upscale, it's worth to visit the Mazda dealership to have a look and test drive.
Just got mine yesterday. 16k miles for $24k. I’m loving it so much its minimalist and luxury with a whole lot of features than its competitors. Civic was boring this is so much fun to drive
Yess! Thank you @PC Mazda Review For reviewing this car this beautiful car because I been looking for a full review of the select package and soon I will upgrade my 2016 Mazda 3 sport to this
The Select is a great mid level trim for the $ but my only issue is that the leatherette does not come heated, which is an awful and cheap omission on Mazda’s part. Nothing worse than sitting on cold leather in the winter. I’d rather just have cloth. I also wish Mazda would put Apple car play/AA on the base trim, a sunroof on the Preferred trim, and ventilated seats, heated steering wheel, 360 camera on the Premium to make it truly a premium trim!
It would be awesome if you guys could make a comparison video based on the available trim levels for FWD! Planning to subscribe to the Mazda family soon!
Hello! How are the speakers compared to the bose audio? I listen to a lot of music when commuting, and am spoiled with an aftermarket sound system in my current car. Really considering the preferred package over the select!
It's hard to say, I guess flat would be the best term? I'm sure you can tweak the settings to help this but I am just going from the default settings. The stock system by no means is bad or anything. It's actually pretty good compared to a lot of stock sound systems but the bose system is definitely a step above in quality and richness to the sound.
Just picked up a 2021 Select, and I must say, I really wish I had gotten the Premium package. The Select LOOKS good, but the sound system is just mediocre (at best), and the absence of the moonroof & the power seats is kind of disappointing. If you're in the market, you should only be considering the Preferred & Premium versions. Ignore all the others.
Your real big differences between those trim levels are your heated seats, Bose surround system, and power driver seat. The other changes I feel are pretty minor I think, is the $1,800 price difference worth that to you? Personally since I’m from a very warm area year round the heated seats aren’t a deal breaker, the power seat is nice but do you find you’re moving your seat all the time? The only real draw personally is the Bose surround system which is pretty nice.
And to answer your question I missed before yes you could potentially order those rims from the dealer but it will be an above and beyond charge. There is no way to add them from the manufacturer.
Hello. I heard you said you own a 2018 6. I am in between a 6 2018 and a 2019 3. Since you driven both which one would you pick between the 2 and why? Thanks
The biggest reason I personally drive the 6 is because I like having the turbo engine. If you are looking at one of the none turbo Mazda6 trims I would actually suggest the Mazda3 if you don't need the back seat space. Really it comes down to if you need space for passengers or not when you are looking at the none turbo variants, they both drive wonderfully so you can't go wrong either way.
@@PCMazdaReviews thank you so much for the reply. I was actually looking for the touring model, non turbo. So in terms of quality, comfort, and reliability you would say the 3 would be the best option? I know is almost the same but jst making sure i make the right move
@@1carlosguitar If you don't find yourself with passengers all the time I would pick the 3 over the 6 in this instance. The 6 hasn't been really since its 2018 models and the new styling of the 3 is really nice. Again though, you wont go wrong with either car you decide to go with.
Hi all! Just bought a 2019 mazda 3 hatch. I was wondering if anyone else has figured out the keyless entry, or if my sensor is broken. In the settings menu on the infotainment screen it says one touch of the sensor and it will unlock drivers door, and twice it will unlock all doors. However, the sensor on the door handle doesn’t let me touch it twice. Also, once I touch the drivers door sensor, it doesn’t let my passenger touch their sensor to unlock their door. Is this normal? Is it possible to touch the sensor twice, and it respond? Or do I have to use my transmitter to unlock all doors? Thank you!
PC Mazda Reviews I got the premium! So when I touch my door handle, it unlocks the driver door. But that’s it, it doesn’t let me touch it twice to unlock all doors. Maybe this is normal?
I apologize for the wait, I was finally able to get my hands no the car today. I was not able to trigger a double tap that would unlock all the doors. So I am actually not sure how they expect you to do the unlock. Now they do have a setting under Settings ------> Vehicle Settings -----> Door Locks you will find under here that you can select for the single touch to unlock all doors.
Great video! I've been eyeing mazda 3's for weeks now but could never really find such a detailed video for this trim.

You won’t regret it. I ended up getting one and I have no qualms with it at all.

How does $21k for 25k miles sound?
@@sandeshdeshmukh123 depends on the vehicle and your down payment
@@sandeshdeshmukh123 I wouldn’t pay more than 19k for a 2019 Mazda 3 with 25k miles if I were you
@@hollowfragment237 thanks brother. The car is in good condition. But yeah, it makes sense to be $19,000.
very comfortable vehicle just grabbed one and it Worth the money compared to other competitors
One of the best reviews I’ve come across. Great detail. Thank you.
Thank you for the feedback. I appreciate it!
This video convinced me to buy my Mazda.
That’s awesome to hear! I hope you love it for years to come.
The beeping goes away once you’ve buckled seat belts! Better put it on before starting engine...

this will jack the price up
Hey, the only way to stop the sound is to put on the seat belt before you start the car,
In order to stop the bonging sound when you start the car, you have to put on your seatbelt before you start the car.
Putting on your seat belt before starting the car then yes it'll stop the chime

Cutting cost. Mazda 3 looks like a great option.
Thank you:) looking to buy one in Ohio!
Is it possible to get the rims from hatchback to this ? I would black on black
No problem, if you have any other questions feel free to ask.
PC Mazda Reviews What’s your take on select vs preferred ? Is preferred package worth more than select for the price and feature difference?
Your real big differences between those trim levels are your heated seats, Bose surround system, and power driver seat.

PC Mazda Reviews great! Thanks ! Yeah just the boss audio :( and maybe the power seats when on a long drive !
Lol, my Mazda 2 (Scion iA) doesn’t have a armrest.
Why doesn’t Mazda have a fingerprint door & push start button? No one likes carrying keys.
this model doesnt come with the bose audio and sunroof? or it does?
Not on this one. You have to go to the preferred package to get the bose and you have to go to the premium to get the sunroof.
@@PCMazdaReviews thank u!
It’s quiet until you punch that gas pedal. Then it roars
How much is one of those rims i need a replacement

Have you discovered a way to disable the chime at engine start?
I have not, and trust me. I have looked.
Put the seat belt before you press the ignition

Does this have enough power for the highway?
more than enough
Plenty of power, for a 4 cylinder car this car has some pep.
