Auto loans: the 2011 Mazda Mazda3
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2011 Mazda Mazda3; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. For anyone shopping for the 2011 Mazda Mazda3, here are the facts that matter.
Before you sign for the Mazda3
Owners filed 132 complaints with NHTSA, most often about air bags, seats and unknown or other; have those parts checked. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.
What the figures tell you
No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.
What to expect from the Mazda3
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with.
A good match for
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Drive it on your own roads
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. A test week in the Mazda3 tells you more than any review. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.
Money matters
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Narrowing it down
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Within the 2011 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
Over to you
Rent it for a week, then decide: send a request with your dates.
