the interior is sick but the exterior is alright.

Yeah the exterior looks like Volkswagen Jetta meets Chevy Cavalier.

even if you lower it, it won't look like this:

With all of the technology in the 3, I would think that they would also have the in-glass antenna like the MSP. I think not having a visible antenna just makes the car look so much cleaner. My other main gripes are how cluttered the steering wheel looks with all of those buttons & the lack of symmetry around the shifter & e-brake. I'm probably biased because these characteristics are the exact opposite of my car.

finally a new economy car that looks like its worth how much it costs

i mean that in a good way

[NegatiZE]

I WANT that car. ::drools::

I'll take an S model in the 5 speed w/ the sport package please.

2004 Corolla Sedan CE
Manual Transmission
MSRP
$15,410.00 (If you can find a dealer to sell you one at this price)

2004 Mazda3 Sedan GX
Manual Transmission
MSRP
$16,195

You get 20hp more, far better manual tranmission, and the interior, there is no comparison.


If you start adding options, the Mazda3 is way ahead of Corolla. Options are stupid expensive on Corolla.
