I currently own a 2003 Audi A4 1.8T which I leased. I put $12,500 downpayment and after seeing the Mazda 3 I'm seriously contemplating giving up my Audi and financing the purchase of the Mazda 3 over 5 years so that instead of owing someone else money after my 4 year lease is up on the Audi, I'll have my car owned outright...

That aside... I'm wondering if anyone else thinks that the rear bumper on the new Mazda 3 sticks out too much? As for the right angle of the rear passenger windows, I love it!!!!!

Not at all!

This morning on the way to work, at a gas station, getting alot of positive comments. Even the clerk had to come out and see why there was a gathering.

My impressions so far: Awesome built car. And... there isnt another car under $20... hell under $25k that has Xenons.
