Go for the high spec. If monthly payment not that big difference and you see yourself able to pay it 5/7/9 years dowm the line, do it. especially if you're planning tp keep your car for as long as it can give you service.

Aesthetics looks can be easily achieve BUT what seperate it from the lower model is what we cannot mostly see.

so the rumours seens to be true. Mazda will prioritize the SUV.

for this price, 147k for a Csegment sedan with a subtle design change from the previous model, seems too much.

better buy a Dsegment sedan or SUV with alkost the same price.

mazda3 is a beautiful, sexy car, but, for me, it's not worthed.
