2012 Mazda MAZDA3 Mazdaspeed3
Vehicle Description:
Turbocharged performance, engaging manual-shift dynamics, and practical hatchback versatility come together in this 2012 Mazda Mazdaspeed3 Touring. Finished in Black Mica over a Black and Red interior, this performance hatchback delivers strong acceleration, responsive handling, useful cargo space, and the distinctive character that made the Mazdaspeed3 a favorite among driving enthusiasts.
Power comes from a 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine paired with a 6-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive. A limited-slip differential, sport-tuned suspension, larger stabilizer bars, and four-wheel disc brakes help give the Mazdaspeed3 sharp response and confident handling while preserving everyday usability.
Inside, the cabin features sport-style seating, dual-zone automatic climate control, a leather-wrapped steering wheel with red stitching, aluminum pedals, cruise control, steering-wheel-mounted audio controls, and flexible 60/40 split-folding rear seats. The Tech Package adds navigation, a Bose audio system, Sirius satellite radio, push-button start, and additional convenience features.
Additional equipment includes Blind Spot Monitoring, rain-sensing windshield wipers, automatic headlights, bi-xenon headlights with auto-leveling, LED rear combination lamps, perimeter alarm, keyless entry, 18-inch alloy wheels, and the Mazdaspeed aerodynamic body treatment with rear spoiler. With its combination of turbocharged power, manual transmission engagement, and practical hatchback design, this Mazdaspeed3 remains a compelling enthusiast-focused daily driver.
