Ever since its debut for the 2004 model year, the Mazda3 has been a viable option for those who want sports car style at a compact car price. This year, for the 2010 model year, the car has had its first real re-design.
The 2010 Mazda3’s exterior is a variation on the previous design, one sporting several minor changes. Among the changes are a redesign of the front grille, which features a large gap in the lower bumper, something some critics have compared unfavorably to a “sinister smile.” 
Other exterior alterations include the optional adaptive high-intensity-discharge xenon headlights, and LED taillights, as well as upgraded 17-inch tires to replace the standard 16-inchers. Also optional are a moon roof and a rear spoiler.
Interior features of the 2010 Mazda3, which is still being offered in both four-door hatchback and sedan versions, include a much more contemporary design, featuring front bucket seats and a rear bench (seating for a total of five including the driver), with optional upgrades from cloth upholstery to leather, heated or not. The backseat folds down in a 60/40 split to expand the cargo area in both versions of the car.
Other interior updates include red illumination for the gauges, and a screen atop the dashboard that displays air-conditioning and radio settings. There’s also an optional navigational system, which is operated via a collection of buttons on the right side of the steering wheel. A CD stereo with an auxiliary input jack, power windows, and a tilt/telescoping steering wheel are all standard across the line, with air conditioning standard on every trim level except the base iSV, and cruise control and remote keyless entry standard on every trim but the iSV and the iSport.

Everything has its ups and downs and the same are applicable for cars too. There are shining years for cars and then there are dark and gloomy years too. If one cares to check out the history of sports coupes, they will find that the late 1980’s along with the late 1990’s was considered to be their dark ages. There are some champions that manage to stand amidst the gloom and continue to shine, despite everything and the Mazda MX-3 is one of them. Sales for the sports coupes had fallen drastically during these aforementioned periods but the Mazda MX-3 proved otherwise and its sales soared even during these dark periods making it its golden periods.
This is the main reason why the Mazda MX-3 is so popular in Canada. Apart from that the capacity of this car to take a maximum of 4 passengers also made it famous. There is another reason, and an important one, that made the Mazda MX-3 so famous in Canada. The Mazda cars released prior to this were styled classically and this particular model veered away from the classic styling that was prevalent in the 1980s that used to be boxy and sported conservative looks. This car had smooth and fluid lines and had a show of modernity apart from the fact that it was comfortable to drive. All these facts helped to make the Mazda MX-3 extremely popular in Canada.
People know that car insurance is very important since it saves them from lots of financial headaches in the event that their car meets with an accident. Yet people do not bother to insure their cars. They are confident that their car will never meet with an accident and that they need not waste money for insuring the same. This is a wrong notion and they are recommended to insure their cars, especially if the same happens to be famous cars like the Mazda MX3, one of the most popular cars in Canada. There is one big misconception in the minds of car users and that is about the insurance premiums.
They think that if they have a costly car, its premium will be costly too.

I have to say it looks more impressive than it probably is. I timed it at about nine seconds — that’s not too impressive (it’s not a Porsche, I know, but still… 
).
It is rumored that Mazda owners are reportedly the kings of innovation and it is not without reason that these statements are being made. In a few months this leading car manufacturer will be launching their hybrid car model no. RX-8. They know that their clientele are fed up and paranoid of driving cars because of the increase in fuel prices. They are no longer finding it worthwhile to drive cars that run on standard fuel and hence are looking for sources where they can obtain Mazda alternative car fuel. At the moment Europe is the only place where one can find this model of Mazda which runs on hydrogen. People have learnt about the new fuel which drives the car using a fuel that is made out of a combination of hydrogen and the normal fuel.

Why do idiots keep buying Mazda mx-3’s. It’s not a car for pillocks, so stop buying it, pillocks!
My point is proven in the video below. Some idiot tries to burn out his mx-3 (the car’s NOT made for it, it’s NOT a 600bhp car, it’s not a Spyker C8 Spyder either) and fails miserably. Then decides it “doesn’t look at all that bad right HOMIES?”. The HOMIES agree so they decide to… PUT THE VIDEO ON THE INTERNET…. :s
Guys. Do whatever you want… BUT DON’T SHARE IT.
Oh well and here I am spreading the video too… I’m such an idiot. 
Even if the rims look good for SOME people, you can’t tell me that paintjob isn’t 100% gay, right?
