I test drove an 06 mazda 3s 5spd this weekend and one thing that really bugged me was that the clutch really feels a bit too easy to push down. This is normal I assume? I think I may just be too used to the clutch in my old neon (mechanical clutch), it requires a bit of effort to press. Is there a way to adjust the resistance of the clutch pedal?

I like the 3, and am pretty set on getting one now that I found out I am too tall for a Scion tC (my head rubs the ceiling!).

 

Mine felt easy too but it's normal. It's just that you're used to your other car. After 2-3 days you'll get used to it Have fun!

 

there is a difference between the 05 and 06 clutch. I was surprised! the 05 felt more "firm" than the 06.

 

I just purchased an '06 hatchback. The clutch grips great when you go to get on it. It was hard for a little while for me to find the grip point for daily driving, but otherwise I really liked it after getting use to it. I'm not so sure about being able to adjust it, I'm pretty sure that you can't. You can always upgrade
