It's crazy to me how there aren't more Mazdas on the road. They are phenomenal cars. I've had my 2019 Mazda 3 for a few years and I wouldn't trade it in for anything that's new on the market.
Is it an HB or Sedan. I have a 2012 Mazda 3 grand I touring and love it. But I’m ready to upgrade but hate the new Mazda 3 sedans body style of the car. If I get the hatch ( I have test driven the car) but loose a lot of backseat room). I don’t want suv right now. So hard to choose
I recently got my Mazda 3 in this exact same colour combination - jet black mica, with burgundy leather interior. I can confirm that the Bose sound system sounds amazing! It looks amazing and drives great. Such a fun car to drive. Here in Australia, the top trim level is called Mazda 3 Astina.
Yes, I know this video is old, but I still love this car. In fact I love it so much I bought a 2021 turbo hatch brand new (got it during the pandemic and right before prices went insane) and still drive it today. My car is dark grey with red interior though, I don't know why anyone would get the premium trim in black, (same price as red) but some people do. Even though the newness has long ago worn off, I'm still amazed how well the interior of my car compares to others, even some quite a bit more expensive. This generation Mazda 3 simply looks like Mazda gave the design of the body/interior over to one of those Italian design houses such as Guigiaro, Ital design, Pinin Farina etc.. yet the finished result has Japanese reliability and lower cost parts and maintenance. What's not to love about that? I just hope Mazda doesn't go too far away from this look in the next generation 3. A few tweaks here and there are all that's needed. I truly can't think of any other car where the sedan and hatchback are equally appealing looking...or at least to me. I prefer the hatch, but the sedan proportions are stellar as well.
Such an awesome car. I’m on my second Mazda 3 hatchback (had a ‘15 and now a ‘20). I have a Polymetal Gray with Red interior, manual transmission. Nice video!
I have a 2023 Carbon Edition Hatchback. I decided to buy it while it was en route from Japan. To my shock and awe, it had some weird paint irregularities on the hood. Wasnt scratches or anything like that. It mwas actory and they just said screw it, throw it on th eboat, the dealership can make a claim with Mazda bklah blah. THe whole point of thi sis, Idropped it off yesterday and was given a Mazda CX-5 loaner and told it might be a week. I am missing it big time and its just been one day! Damn!
Re: USB flashdrive for audio playback...it's been impossible to ascertain the specs for USB drives. It seems only USB2/Fat32 can work in '22Mazda3. Can large USB3 (Fat32, exFat, etc) drives (256GB, 512GB, 1TB) be formatted to work? Thanks!!!
Wondering the same thing, my car arrives in February, I am ready to buy a dedicated USB stick and fill it with FLACs, but I cannot find info, if all FLACs indeed work or what is the size limit of USB stick.
What's up bro! I'm from Miami too. What do you say about the Mazda 3 Hatch Premium? I was thinking of getting that one. Would love to hear your opinion.
Hey yes definitely get it! Its super reliable built straight from Japan, super quite on the road, the ride feels so premium especially with the heads up display at night, amazing bose sound system, so much technology for the price, I recommend the premium & premium plus trims. The AWD Turbo is super quick. The only complaint is that is a bit cramp on the rear seats that's all.
@@jaygtestdrives I don't really need a big space for the rear. Selling my FRS. Need a daily hatch. Thank you for the respond. Which dealer do you work at?
I have a 2019 Premium. White/Red interior. Noticed you didn't have a rear cargo mat. I have an extra one (genuine Mazda3) from dealer. Never opened, still packaged. $50.00 if you would be interested. ($100.00 at Dealer). Comment back if you would if you care to.

@@PrincessAhmanet well I had a sedan...but I ended up getting the new CX-50 last July! 😂 I guess technically, it wasn't on the market yet.
I love Mazda, I think the designs of the cars are just great and since I also love music, I think this Bose sound system is simply brilliant🔥

It is! I actually love manual more but I live around miami and manual its not so convenient with heavy traffic.
Mazda makes beautiful cars

I am missing it big time and its just been one day! Damn!
Yes, man, I loved it. The only thing I didn't like about it was the rear leg room. It's so cramped.
Quick question- Are these type of open and big parking lots free of cost? like in canada as well as USA? Like do you not have to pay for parking here?
If they had Silver metallic I would grab one of these today! Might have to settle for machine grey. The 6speed manual is a must for me. Way more fun.
I love manual as well but I live around miami so manual its not too convenient over here.
@@jaygtestdrives why is that if I may ask? Too much traffic?
@@longmai5112 Yes, sometimes your stuck on traffic for 2 or 3 hrs
They should add again the Cd Player
This is such a beautiful car. Did you customize the interior and rims?
No everything is stock except the carbon fiber center console piece.
Thanks!
I have watched this video 15 times. 😅Are all your windows tinted?
@@chimmyuko366 Thanks for watching. Yes all tinted!
It looks awesome.
Ayyy yo bro!! Nice car! If you don't mind me asking, why did you choose the HB over the Sedan? 🥺
The handling is way better than the sedan and it feels more agile!
@@jaygtestdrives nice!!! Happy to see you got the HB bro!! Looks menacing yet very mature!! 💯
The hatchback has more features
Excellent video. 👍
How is the c pillar? Is the blindspot rlly that crazy? Planning to get one same as yours 🔥
I don't even notice it, I have blind spot monitors on the mirrors and dashboard.
Can you please put a link for the carbon fiber wrap?
Just search it on Ebay, 2019 Mazda3 center console carbon fiber wrap
Thank you Man!! What a professional are you.
great video .. great car :)
Thank you so much!!
Where did you get the cover for the infotainment center?
Ebay!

Hey man, where did you get the carbon fiber wrap in the center console? I want one on my '19 lol
I got it on Ebay!
@@jaygtestdrives Thank you!
3:33 where did you buy this? i didn't have one in my car
You could get it on Amazon or eBay!
Would an aftermarket stereo for this car be possible?
Yes its possible but I don't think it needs it, the bose sound system sounds good enough!
Do you like the sound system?
I don't like it, I love it. Bose is definitely one of the best 👌

does my mazda in the title mean your car if so this car is sick
Yes
I am very sad that since 2020 Mazda3 has not been distributed to Russia.
What’s the tint on your windows ?
15%
8:27 that kick is normal? Looks like something broked...
Road noise
It has barely any road noise
👍 that's a nice car
Thank you so much!
Thinking about replacing my wrx with this car. Cool video! Have you had any problems with the Mazda app?
Not at all!
It's a shame they don't offer the sunroof and carbon inlay instead of the piano black in europe....
I added the carbon fiber wrap
What your Camera. bro
Go pro Hero 8
nice
Source for carbon fiber wrap on console? The piano black is horrible day-to-day... - thanks!
Ebay, yeah it scratches so easily
What year is this car
2019
I have a 2019 Premium. White/Red interior. Noticed you didn't have a rear cargo mat. I have an extra one (genuine Mazda3) from dealer. Never opened, still packaged. $50.00 if you would be interested. ($100.00 at Dealer). Comment back if you would if you care to.
Beautiful car, but absolutely no leg room in the backseat!!
Yes its a bit cramped on the back but the front feels very spacious
Take backseats out weight reduction
shame the drivetrain is just so boring
Saves gas
Why do a video and not talking only showing what is already there
Non Narrative Test drive with Binaural Audio to simulate how would people feel if they were driving it.
These hatch backs are so ugly
