hi. welcome to me. i registered here in tsikot to get answer and suggestions on which to buy? i'm planning to buy mazda3. i need to get feedback of mazda3's negative sides as compared to corolla...

[niky]

Mazda3 versus Corolla? Lots of threads on this already.

Negatives:
-Heavier than Corolla, weaker engine, thus, slower with poorer fuel consumption.

That's honestly it. Resale value... roughly equal. The current Corolla has good resale value, but the Mazda3's style gives it a better resale value than other Mazda vehicles.

Long term reliability: The Corolla's one major problem is soft suspension parts. Mazda's eternal problem is soft suspension bushings. Take your pick.

Positives:
-Better insulation
-Better ride
-Better handling
-More responsive AT
-Better brakes
-Better looks (subjectively)
-Newer car, better crash protection

Nakagamit na ko ng Corolla. Tsuper ako nun, wala naman reklamo yung dalawang pasahero ko sa likod. Ok naman i-drive.

But it looks like a wallflower next to a Mazda 3.
