Hey I'm looking at the Mazda 3 and had a couple of questions. So the 3s Sport model is pretty comparable to the 3i Touring model (other than the upgraded engine), yet it costs $1500 more MSRP. Also the weight to power ratio is 18.1 lb/hp compared to 19.3 lb/hp which doesn't seem like a huge improvement over the 3i. Thoughts? Is there any benefit to getting the sport model?
Also, for the base 3i SV model the specs on Mazda's site list "Air conditioning with pollen filter" as not being standard. Does this mean the base model doesn't have air conditioning or just doesn't have a pollen filter?
