Are these good cars? Thinking of getting a 2013 Skyactiv Mazda

Do you live somewhere where rust is an issue? If not, go for it. If so, it's a little risky because mazda3s are known for rusting easily

>entirely fake side intakes

Why.

>>15447048
Because those are just plastic inserts for where the optional fog lights go

>>15447048
You can replace them for foglights.

>>15447015

>skyactive

Into the trash it goes.

Mazda is so cheap it couldn't even come standard?

Only the first gen.

The reliability of a Toyota
The driving feel of a BMW
At the cost of a Hyundai

Haters gonna hate

This. It's a perfect car if you don't mind the interior and rust isn't a problem

OP here

I live in Chicago. Salted roads is a yearly occurrence .

>>15447133
Used Mazdas currently have the highest reliability rankings. Eat it chumley.

In that case I wouldn't recommend it, unless it's 100% rust free when you buy it and you get it sprayed with an anti rust coating

>>15447015
the iM has godawful blind spots, but is still a nice car

>>15447133
Post-Ford Mazda is neck and neck with Toyota.

>>15447126
The interior isn't bad for a econobox and the rust is only a first gen issue.

>the rust is only a first gen issue

Lel MZR owners get butthurt

OP skyactiv is a great engine and the six speed auto is excellent if that's the route you go.
