The 2007 MAZDASPEED3 is one of the fastest and quickest front-wheel drive cars in the world. With a zero-to-60 time under six-seconds and an electronically limited top-speed of 155 mph, MAZDASPEED3 is the class of the sport-compact “pocket-rocket” crowd.

The MAZDASPEED3 features a compact, lightweight five-door body paired with a 263-horsepower 2.3-liter DISI (Direct Injection Spark Ignition) Turbo engine, giving it a best-in-class power-to-weight ratio and making it one of the highest performing front-wheel drive cars in the world.

In 2003, Mazda revolutionized the compact sedan segment with the launch of the MAZDA3. European sophistication, high-performance, advanced technology and safety are the ingredients that make MAZDA3 the company’s best-selling model globally. While more than one-million vehicles have been built, the MAZDA3 continues to set sales records and has virtually no incentive support. MAZDASPEED3 takes everything that made MAZDA3 a success, and bumps it up a notch – more style, more power, more handling, more value.

“The MAZDASPEED3 is a pure enthusiasts’ dream, made for the performance buyer who wants it all for a price that doesn’t take it all,” said Tatsuo Maeda, Program Manager for development of the MAZDA 3 series. “Sport-tuned exhaust, turbocharged motor, MAZDASPEED sport independent suspension, 18-inch alloy wheels, unique roof spoiler, sport-inspired interior – the MAZDASPEED3 delivers a true drivers car.”
