Has anyone looked at those lately?? Although i hate Mazdas (bad experience with a 626), the new Mazda 3 looks very appealing. Besides the 4 cylinder 2.3 Liter I 4 with 160hp, the car has some very interesting features only found in much more expensive cars.
You can equip the car with Xenon HID lights, A tire pressure monitor.
Electronic brake force distribution and side curtain air bags.
As well as a Navigation system.
All this for

$20,735 :o


Here are some pics
