Used Mazda Mazda3 for Sale in Laredo, TX

I have owned by black Mazda 3 Sport 2.3L for roughly three years now. I purchased the car used from a dealership in cash, and the car has been very good to me over the last 50,000 miles of driving. What I like most about the car is the performance vs. economy. Comparing 2.3L Sport to even newer 2015 models of the Corolla and Civic shows the car still holds its own in the lower gears. I was blown away how quickly the car can get up to 30 mph and into the 60's once the pedal is hit. What I dislike about the car is the build quality, and most of this is due to it being based on the Ford Focus body. This has now been fixed in newer models, but basically any part that was built by Ford on the car was lacking. The ride can be quite noisy, but for a millennial this is generally not an issue, since we listen to our music loudly to drown it out. All in all the drive train portion of the car has been quite reliable, and I have had zero issues, save dying o2 sensor on the exhaust manifold, since purchasing the vehicle at 100,000 miles. The car is a joy to drive, and gets out of its own way very quickly. The pedal is a bit hair trigger, but you get used to it quickly. The car has a very sporty style, and the addition of the tail fin is a must for this vehicle. Headlights, braking etc... are better than average for an economy car. I have driven a 2015 Corolla sport and was unimpressed, since the steering on the corolla just does not feel as tight. The 3 feels like you are driving a go kart, its much tighter and responsive. The word I would use is "plucky", it feels like it is much lighter on its feet than a civic or corolla. The best aspect of the car for me is the performance vs. gas mileage. The car will easily get 32 mpg on the highway, and no less than 25 in city. For the larger 2.3L variable timing engine, this is just awesome. The 2.0L vs. the 2.3L from the same year model is just like night and day. All in all, if this car was built again for 2017, I'd buy it in a heart beat (though it would be nice if it were all electric).

I love the way my Mazda 3 car looks especially in the black pear paint! It has a bunch of cool features (i.e. Sun roof, Bose speakers, navigation, Bluetooth, tinted windows, and much more). Out of all the cars I have had, this one has so far ran the best. I am over 73k miles and nothing major needed to be done so far and is under warranty until 100k miles. They are very easy to keep maintained if you enjoy doing your own repairs but still new at working on vehicles. Nothing has fallen off or no unwanted wear and tear. I have had this car for almost 3 years and I still enjoy it. All the other cars I have had I ended up hating them because they were such a hassle. This car is far from that! I guess the only thing I can think of that I don't particularly enjoy is all the blind spots you get from the trimming by the windows. I would say they are 2.5 Inches thick and it is hard to see if cars are next to you are coming up to you. If you go on other websites and look at the reviews you would notice the same complaints but overall has a great rating. That is the biggest reason why I decided to take the lunge and finance this car! I love it so much and will have it for many other years!
