No, but there is a real reason not to buy a mazda 3

>>28829316
All that means anon is you have even MORE parts supply available.

Mazdas are supposed to be good but I don't find them attractive

How about the nu-Mazda3 being ass-fucking-ugly and not being able to see out of the rear (or any) window, as >>28829347 posted?

I always hated that ugly rear.
The sedan version would have been perfect if the rear window lifted together with the boot lid. There were sedans with not obvious hatches and they're great.

>>28829316
I have an HRV. Its popular in Asia and Europe

>>28829316
If you're buying a car for its utility and not as a fashion accessory or a hobby, you should always buy cars that are popular in third world countries. A car that's resistant to those conditions will last much longer.

Yes. Third worlders like FWD hatchbacks with 1.2l engines
Why would you want that?

>>28829347
rear windows are unnecessary nowadays due to the quality of rear and side cameras. mazda also comes with rear cross traffic warning that will let you know of oncoming car or pedestrian faster than you'll ever see them even if you were in a convertible. Boomer.

>>28829698
fuck that
backup cameras are nice but they don't replace me looking at things with my real human eyeballs
until you can project a full sphere around me so I can literally look through the car like an F-35 pilot I want good visibility through the windows

This is a bus rider.

Assuming you have a car with a 360 degree camera setup, proximity sensors and an electronic rear view mirror, explain why you need to see something with your "real human eyeballs" without mentioning

because my eyes are better able to resolve things than a 7 inch 720p display fed with the cheapest chinesium cameras available you fucking retard

No thirdies tend to value vehicles that are dependable and easy to repair.

>>28829347
That's actually absurdly bad wtf.

I will never understand the Mazda appeal when Hyundai's have surpassed them

>>28829316
Sex is pretty popular in shitholes. Is that why you don't have any?

>>28829347
The only reason I can't recommend Mazdas. Otherwise excellent cars. Would love a mini van sized Mazda with the hybrid drive train they're putting in the CX-50. Siennas after sinfully ugly and Honda gobbles up gas like crazy, and has aggressive cylinder deactivation.

Shame, the car itself looks good.

>>28829347
the sedan doesn't have this problem, not sure what the fuck they were thinking with the hatchback. had a sedan as a rental for a week and it was great

>>28830426
>>28829347
If the car was from the early 00s, sure, it would be a problem.
But with all the cameras and stuff it has now, it really is a non issue.

>>28830488
shut the fuck up retard
go drive your hermetically sealed cuck pod off a bridge

>>28830426
looks like a comfy place to nap in

>>28829962

not an excuse
those c pillars are obscene

>>28830519
Why are you so mean? Did someone piss in your coffee or something?

>>28830789
I have no obligation to be nice to you
especially if you think you don't need to see out of your car because its got heckin cameras

>>28830386
Hmm, some Mazdas have decent visibility. CX-5 and CX-50 do. And of course, the Miata. The Mazda 3 sedan has way better visibility and a more spacious interior, but it doesn't come in manual and it looks very generic. I wish Mazda made a more 'traditionally styled' Mazda 3 hatch, I probably would have bought one. But the visibility is horrible and the interior feels like being in a coffin. Still, not a bad car and most owners seem to like them.

I thought these bulbous eggshit cars died in the 2010s, why are they still here

I love mine bros. Easiest car in the world to drive, park, and pack. There’s nothing worth seeing out the back in a world of LED aftermarket retina burners.

Only downside is the passenger-side A Frame. If you’re a bike or human coming from my 1 - 3 o’clock you might be screwed. Least I won’t die in a rollover kek.

>>28829316
One of rare cars in europe that still has 4 cyl engine.

>>28829347
i wanted to get it but goddamn this is the only thing that was stopping me from comitting.

>>28829316
No, because you'll get cheap parts for it. Enjoy what you like.

>>28831196
just get the sedan, it's fine

>>28829316
I like mine, but never cared for the look of the hatch, so I got a sedan. I also feel like you have to get the turbo, but it doesn't come in manual if you care about that (I don't). I got the top trim version and I think it gives some entry level luxury cars a run for its money. I wish they kept multilink suspension and didn't skimp out on other little things though, like power passenger seats. I just added a JB4 tuner the other day to improve acceleration and throttle response. I feel Mazda is pretty underrated in the US. I noticed a lot more of them when visiting Mexico.

Depends
Is it popular with poor people in shithole countries? Might mean that it's dependable and cheap. That's a plus.
Is it popular with rich dudes from shithole countries? If you like it, you're a nigger
