My Dad had a 2004 Mazda3 hatchback with absolutely no options and a manual gearbox. He put 169,376 kms on the clock before trading it in in 2011 for a three year old Acura MDX
Small car with a big heart. Though i think it would've been significant for them to put the side airbags in as standard seeing as young families would buy this car.
I still have mine 2005 with 199,567 miles of full happiness
I'm still driving my 05 Mazda 3 2.3 hatchback with a 5 speed manual. It now has 230K miles and still going strong.
besides mpg this thing was ahead of it's time no other competitor was at the level of refinement that this car had.
Still see tons of this generation Mazda3 driving around all over the place.
These have aged well.
My 2006 5-door/5-speed manual just turned 200k miles! I bought it new in Dec 2005. I still drive it 80 miles round trip every day. I adore this car!
I have an SP23 sedan with 22,2229 km still fun to drive. This machine holding up its age 👍

Still great looking
I wonder why John called this (and the 2003 Corolla) a subcompact. They were both bigger than the Echo, for example.
I was wondering the same thing
Woooooow, under 8-sec 0-60 in a naturally aspirated 4 banger? That's some serious speed for its price!!
Love the 3
Nice this car
Do you happen to have the 2000 Celica?

The original (Gen 1) Mazda 3 was the best!
I’m looking at one a 04 hatchback s for 2600 146k is that a good deal or should I run??
If there's no rust absolutely
If it has been serviced regularly and don’t have much rust then yes.
