+The Fast Lane Car who in the world would hate Emmy she is fantastic with
her reviews and her atmosphere is a pleasure to watch. I surely know +
MrKeyboardCommando enjoys her ;)))
Civic still has the best ride quality I can’t believe it
Loved it! Good to know my 2014 Mazda 2.0 L isn’t obsolete yet.
Just a word: when searching for a car you want to watch the reviews. It was
hard because ppl only review the top of the line trim option. Not everyone
can afford 28k+. I highly suggest you get the lowest trim with the 7″
touchscreen & hatchback. It’s worth it!
So this chick is bias towards Mazda & Roman is biased towards
Chrysler…Have yet to figure out which car company pays the chubby one.
I’m getting a car soon, so I’m doing a lot of research. So far, the Mazda3
is one of the top contenders, alongside the Honda Fit and a few other
sedans. I hear a lot about Mazdas rusting, and I live in a climate where
the weather is extremely unpredictable. It can blizzard one day and be up
in the eighties the next. So, can someone elaborate on the rust situation
with Mazda and whether or not they’ve addressed the problem and fixed it
with this generation of the 3? If rust is a problem then Mazda will
definitely lose its place on my list because I plan to keep this car until
the absolute end, and if the absolute end is within three or four years, I
wouldn’t waste my money. I really like this car so I hope the rusting issue
is a thing of the past…
How are the motor mounts? On my 07 they are soo soft that when I put my
foot in it, the tires break loose and theres a loud banging noise under the
hood.
Emme, where you able to test this car in the snow? Being in the North East
im considering the 3 but it needs to be decent in the snow.
The Mazda brand is geared towards the enthusiast. Always has been, always
will be. If you don’t like the act of driving, you won’t “like” this car.
This being said, Mazda has done a fantastic job with their bread-and-butter
car. Leagues ahead from the previous gen and a true segment leader.
The beautiful Emme doing a stellar review, as usual. 🙂 <3
I love my Mazda 3.
Does that have the appearance pack on it?
the big thing about syactiv is that the engine has somewhat trapazoidal
pistons rather than flat and runs at 13:1 compression ratio. all that
results to bigger power and better fuel economy from the efficent little 4
banger.
I think she might ahem…(cough) (cough) … Be slightly biased…..lol
hahahaha. Otherwise umm I like Mazda’s designs but I’ve heard way to many
stories of peoples Mazda’s crapping out early. Like between 100,000-150,000
miles. Besides I love my 2014 Honda Accord. (:
it may “love the redline” but everyone will think you’re behaving like a
dick thrashing the engine around town in an average looking family car
I have the 2014 mazda 3 sedan. I LOVE THAT CAR!!!!
I havent watched TFLC in awhile but this is a good change!
She seems really cool and I like her hair. Hope to see more reviews from
her. :D
Thanks TFL, I bought a 2014 mazda 3 GT (Canadian Model) which is the S
Grand Touring back in March,2014. And so far i’m loving this car very
much. Only thing that i don’t like about the car was the power plug inside
the little storage at the arm rest. Power output stays on even though the
car is shut off. Other than that, I do recommend this car to any prefer
fuel efficent and little luxuary package at low cost ( not really low cost)
more like mid range. I really like the sporty hatchback looks. Its very
stable at high speed cornering.
Reviewed elsewhere as having a very hard ride, and the sky active engine
being very noisy when cold.
Not a bad car otherwise but I don’t like the large grille, looks odd?
Pretty decent review except for the part where she left out the most
important part of the skyactiv. None of the cars electric accessories are
driven by the engine. AC music window and so on are driven by a capacitor
recharged by braking so there is no parasitic loss when any of those items
are used making better use of power and increased fuel milage. That along
with transmission setup (not manual) allows for better fuel ratings
A 3000 pound compact. Kind of an oxymoron isn’t it?
I saw it driving today it’s a Nice car
Hey M great review though I found it extremely bias because you didn’t
point out one negative. I know your love for Mazda and all but I just
thought it could have been more objective. Anyway great work and great
information. I’m not trying to be difficult it’s just that for folks
looking at this vehicle many choices abound that I think are compatible or
better. Especially when it comes to power.
I mean Sky Active is great but you have to floor the car to get any real
power this defeating the fuel economy. Constantly having to drive in high
RPM for power gets old fast. Otherwise the car has no performance.

hey please do a laundry basket rating
Nice car but the black non body colored mirrors really stick out like a
sore thumb to me.
The touchscreen in the car is ABSOLUTELY the worst design in modern car
history. The screen looks and feels as if you could just rip it right out
of place. It is NOT cool, it’s NOT high tech, it is a BAD DESIGN!! I am
NOT a hater just to hate, BUT I HATE THAT SCREEN PLACEMENT and would not
buy that car because of that.
But what about the laundry baskets?!?
I always love watching Emme’s reviews because she’s so enthusiastic. Also
think it’s hilarious because I’m pretty confident we have the same driving
style (hehe redline fun) which is why I totally ignore advertised MPG and
am pleasantly surprised if I get anything more than 20. I’m bad.
This is a driver’s car, however if you’re gonna have passengers often in
the backseat, it’s tight at the back. I went to the dealership and checking
out the cars, and I found out you can lift the foam up in the back seat…
I could see the metal of the car right there. That’s the only issue, if you
only carry 1-2 people, this is an awesome car to buy!
I saw a lot of new mazda 3 reviews, but this is the worst of them, sure
this car is fun to drive but you didn’t notice how loud the cabin is? its
the laudest car in this segment. also storage space look extremly cheap..
For some ppl this is a potential daily driver, so you have to notice its
down sides. Leg room and head room at the back Golf is better here?What is
good for mx5 not nesseserly is good for car you are driving on a highway
for x hours… Sorry Emmy but you could do better then this…
She’s a little EXTRA right now.
I still can’t get over the info system setup, just so cheaply done, but
otherwise a great car.
Solid review (Nice job Emmie), but the only gripe I have with the Mazda 3
2.5 is the price. At the $25k price point, you can upgrade to faster and
more fun to drive offerings such as the Accord Sport 6MT, Civic Si, and
base VW GTI. And why can you get a Mazda6 2.5 6MT for cheaper than a
Mazda3 2.5 6MT? SMH Mazda.
I’d Buy a st for that price
I LOVE my Mazda 3 awd!!
So it’s exactly the same as the 2014 model
This lady is an absolute BAFOON and has zero business trying to review
vehicles….good lord, way to cheapen your channel
Nice this new Mazda.
I wished I could have waited for that Mazda. I got a Focus, fun car but no
HID’s or Headup display/
Who the hell doesn’t like Emme!! I will look for you, I will find you….
And I will kill you. (Liem Neeson voice)
“It’s just too much fun to drive!” See what else Emme Hall of The Fast Lane

Emmy over Nathan all day, every day
I feel the same about my 335i. It’s capable of 30+ on the highway, but I
average 16mpg because it’s so hard to drive it economically. D:
The shaking and extraneous refocusing of the camera in this video is very
distracting.
Good review but poor camera work. Not sure if you got a new camera man but
transitions and creative angles need work.
