  • Driving it

    3 out of 5 3.0

    What's it like to drive?

    I sorry Mazda. But I think the driving expirince from this car is just dull. The gear shift feels rubbery and takes effot to change gear. And it feels like a tank to drive, and the handling isn't as sharp as Mazdas 1990s 323F (the one with the flip up lights).

    What's it like to park?

    Hard, because it is so big and the visibility is dreadful, you might as well just guess where your going
