I got burned so bad by Audi and Volvo I needed something practical, but I adore my pretty little Mazda3. 2018 GT so prior gen, 2.5l but no turbo. Would have loved a turbo but the interiors on the new gen are cramped and shitty. One of the most comfortable interiors of any car I've ever owned, and I've owned many. Everything's soft. The high end features are cool, mines fully loaded and has adaptive headlights that turn with the wheel, a fighter jet style HUD where a mechanical screen is raised with info displayed on it, including gps headings, paddle shifters, heated steering wheel, just cool shit. Only 30k miles, 1 prior owner, almost mint but paints very slightly wearing on the top, hoping she lives a good long life and I'll keep her clean as all fuck
