@D.J - Just in case you are not aware of it. Your replies are seen by everyone so there is no need to tag each person.
Recently we bought a 2015 Mazda 3 Sport hatchback. Itās my first Mazda, and so far Iāve been very impressed with it.
We also had a 2007 Honda Fit that was a lovely car. Very flexible interior. However, I actually think I like the Mazda better, if comparing the two.

True, Iām not very knowledgeable on the rotary. Im currently taking an Automotive Service Technician course at the college in my city and I believe we will go over rotaries but not 100% sure. Iām just gonna have to wait and find out. Although a speed3 would be awesome if they released a 20ā even if its not much in design change, or combine all of the past ones together for this super speed3. One can only hope!
I donāt know if it was CPO or not. Given the age, Iād guess it was. Acura warrants CPOs for 24 months after the new car warranty expires or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first.
Thatās a good CPO warranty
The Mazda was probably less entry level feeling
The Konaās engine is not Theta II. Rumor has it they have fixed the issue on that engine, time will tell, but we already have a 2013 Sontata with that engine and not interested on increasing my odds.
I also agree with the Velosterās rear visibility being fine. I am used to sitting low, no issues. My daughterās Prius is more of a problem for me.
Thanks for the info. I love the looks of the Veloster and the Kona both!
Very good question . Iāve test driven Mazda CX-9 today and was impressed . you can get used 2019 for about 22k.

Awesome! I like Mazdas. The CX-9 looks great but is a little big for just my needs. I like the smaller CX-3 and CX-30 SUVs too
For some reason I did not look at Mazda when I bought my Toyota Highlander back in 2014. I LOVE my Highlander. I have since been in a CX-9, and was thoroughly impressed. My sonās Mazda 3 was extremely reliable vehicle. Maybe next time (5+ years) Iāll give them a look.
If I were to go an SUV from Mazda I would for sure do the CX-3 its a upsize from the hatchback but still compact enough as if Iām driving a hatchback. Not too sure about the CX-30 have only heard of that vehicle recently.
Iād go with CX3 then, super sharp looking car

Be aware of issues with some of the new CVT transmissions. Research that as certain models seem to fail at certain mileages like clockwork. That might pretty much total a car in this price range and render it not economical to repair.
