Dude, I've been watching so many Mazda 3 videos for like the past two weeks and yours is one of the best I've seen even compared to all these pro review channel ones I've watched lol. I'm most likely getting one very soon!
that is such a nice compliment tysm🥲 i watched a lot of mazda reviews too for inspiration in making this video, i hope you enjoy your mazda whenever you get it!
I had no idea this was not a char channel lol. I was just trying to find out if it's worth to get the carbon instead of the preferred. Or maybe the premium. But I don't want turbo or awd. I don't see a reason to have turbo in regular commute cars. Something that just lowers your longevity. I ride rockets so I don't need speed craving from a regular car I just want them get me from a to B but also have some creature comforts and look decent enough.
Same. Even just hearing the door chime I'm like omg that would annoy me ill have to ask if they adjust volume before buying. Never would have thought of that.
I have a 2021 Mazda 3 turbo hatchback. And for the Bose speakers there’s 12 speakers around the entire car. The chrome trim is only in the front door panels while everything else is plastic trims. Regardless all the speakers are Bose speakers/tweeters. And the subwoofer is in the trunk on top of the spare tire as well. I hope that helps gabby
Your car has a complete Bose system, all of the speakers are BOSE, but not all of them are going to be grill branded. Cold starts for all modern cars (specially with direct injection) are noisy due to the quick warm up system and the direct injection itself, pretty normal.
On a cold start the engine intentionally revs higher initially then settles down to warm it up faster, it's supposed to be like that even my Merecedes does the same thing
I just got mine today!!! Carbon edition 2024 and they finally added a charging pad and wireless CarPlay!!! I loved how simple everything is in it…. I watched this video a while ago and you definitely influenced my decision to buy one
Great cars for driving spirited or just following along! Things to consider are, its a dust magnet.... the Piano black will scratch easily.... so use a good quality microfiber cloth to wipe gracefully! Oh, replace your cabins filter twice yearly! save the cash and do it yourself.... the Bose system is 12 speakers, the front doors Bose plates are cladding covers for design display, that blends well with front dash display!
Gorgeous car! What a fantastic choice! Congratulations on Joining the Mazda gang! I have a 2020 currently and am looking to upgrade soon. I’m stuck between this exact model and a CX-5 currently. Can’t go wrong with either. I love my car, and Mazda as a brand! 😅 Certainly NOT trying to tell you what to do, but upscale rubber mats for the floor saves the carpet long term!
Just bought a '22 hatch carbon edition. Love it so far, only 2800 miles when I got it. I decided on '22 because it was still with a year of warranty and is the only year to not have a recall (so far). Edit: someone probably said this, but the buttons on the right side if your wheen are cruise control buttons, not lane assist. One is for speed, the other is for follow distance.
I have a 2022 carbon picked it up at 7k miles and definitely looks better if you get the window tint I’m also painting the calibers white but can’t find white so red
Excellent review. I'm thinking of getting this exact model and color in the next few weeks. My only hesitation is that it's made in Mexico and most other Mazdas are made in Japan. I'm hoping that doesn't affect the quality. Enjoy your car!
thanks! just fyi- this car is made in Japan, the nearest port to the US is in Mexico. im not sure if you're located on east coast but that was the situation with purchasing mine at least
FYI you could get a wireless charger but if you do, you sacrifice your console storage in the armrest. It also apparently overheats, and charges slowly but with wireless you can't connect to Apple carplay cause the 2023 doesn't have wireless connectivity. So now you go back to it needing to be plugged in...removing the need for wireless charging. Also sport mode slightly lowers the times between gear shifts so its supposed to get you to 6th gear faster...might save about 1 second at most
I feel sad for those who recently purchased a 23 model recently, they fixed the issue with the small refresh in the 24. Wireless charger is standard on more trims and located where it should be. Add to that the inclusion of Wireless apple carplay and Android auto and a bigger display on some trims.
I've looked into some wireless chargers but I don't mind too much that I have to plug my phone in. I do agree however that this would've been a more modern touch. but most of the time my phone needs a charge anyways!
not at all. the wheel is very light and easy to maneuver! the leather is soft so it's easy to glide over when turning/steering. they may be talking about the driving lane assist feeling heavy, but that can be turned off.
If I were you I would wait for the 24. Having the wireless charger where it should be and wireless carplay and android auto on a bigger screen will future proof the car longer.
@@MrUser999999 bigger screen is only on like the top models featuring turbo which I would not get cause bet that once your warranty is up that thing will break and this is from a mechanic perspective. Wireless is not enough to warrant paying more for even less...tho the second trim getting heater mirrors is a big improvement
@@blacklistreaper5253 I'm buying a the 2024 hatchback version tomorrow and the non-turbo carbon edition and with this trim level, the black seats are not available....only red. But it might be different for the sedan.
