interior is decent on both, I favor the simplicity of the rabbit. I would drive both of these cars (and also a TC so you can see how poor it handles in comparison) my biggest problem with the “3” is that you either spend more or get less. ![http://z.about.com/d/cars/1/7/4/k/ag_07rabbit_interior.jpg](http://z.about.com/d/cars/1/7/4/k/ag_07rabbit_interior.jpg) vs. ![http://z.about.com/d/cars/1/7/x/e/mz_07mazda3_interior.jpg](http://z.about.com/d/cars/1/7/x/e/mz_07mazda3_interior.jpg) ---

> [@speedped79](#): > > basil ford on walden, weve gotten trades that ended up at the junk yard a few days after we resell them…lol Fixed I would go with a Mazda3 hatch. I heard nothing but bad reviews on the G6 and Im sure the G5 is not far behind especially if you plan on keeping it for around 6 years. ---

The rabbit is out of the question. They are too expensive for what I am looking for. I might be able to pick up a Mazda3/Mazda if I can find a non hatchback one that is closer to 12,000. The G5/G6 I cant seem to find one online that is standard so I think I am going to check out a few Mazda’s today since I need something ASAP. I gotta see the 4 door in person to see if I like it. ---

Because atleast the Mazda is slightly amusing to drive and has a relatively sporty shape. Whereas the corolla sucks to drive, has a horrible interior, a horrible exterior, and is Toyota. I’m home sick, and grumpy, the hate is going to flare up. ---

Whereas this is NYSPEED, where people buy cars based on other people’s opinions. The only thing that should ever be asked about a car is reliability. Past that, it comes down to how you like driving it.
