Engine
The smaller the car, the more pep you need in those tire rotations, and the Mazda3 supplies just that. The SKYACTIV®-G1 2.0-liter DOHC 4-cylinder engine pumps out 155 horsepower and 150 lb.-ft. of torque for a happy excursion down South Milledge Avenue any day of the week. Keep on going without a single care in the world thanks to the frugal 28/37/31 MPG city/hwy/combined2, and enjoy every uninterrupted moment on the road with the 4-wheel independent suspension. It’s complemented by the front MacPherson strut with a stabilizer bar and the 16-inch steel wheels, so you’ll never feel those road imperfections.
Cabin
Let’s have some cabin talk, though. That’s where you spend most of your time with the Mazda3, so, obviously, it has to be impressive. Enter without a fuss thanks to the remote keyless entry system, and tap the Push Button Start to hear that powerhouse purr to life. Adjust your sport seat six different ways to find the optimal position for comfort and visibility, and let your gaze slip to the standard 7-inch full-color touchscreen display while you back out the drive. Why would you do that? Well, the standard rearview camera3, is why, of course! The Mazda3 not only boasts the MAZDA CONNECTTM4 infotainment system as standard, but a whole host of advanced safety features, including Smart City Brake Support5.

Testimonials
Great service and speed!
Friendly and helpful staff.
“ Friendly and helpful staff. Had my vehicle ready promptly and reviewed all services performed. ”
very quick
“ I first contacted Mr. PJ Jones over Cargurus, communication is very prompt and Mr. PJ gave me a competitive price and fee schedule. It is a bit nervous because I am from SC and will travel over 2 hours to get to their dealership, Gary the sales person makes the paperwork process very smooth. Upon arrival at Augusta, the buying process is very quick, I got the paperwork done in less than 20 minutes the most. To my surprise, whatever Mr. PJ quoted me over email is exactly what I am getting. No hidden fee, changes at the last minute. It is great to see people do business that way. The only small thing is they put a sticker on the back of the car which seems way to big, be nice if they can put smaller sticker that blends in better with the vehicle or just don't put the sticker on their. ”

Kevin was so kind and seemed genuine
“ Kevin was so kind and seemed genuine. Before my appointment, I kept having to reschedule my appointments. He offered to let me use his car if I needed it. People are not kind anymore. That was the nicest thing anyone has said or offered to do in quite some time. He also gave me a discount. I was very grateful for. He is willing to help in anyway possible. He made my experience with Mazda EXCELLENT! Thank you Kevin. God bless you! ”

This was the best car buying experience I have ever had
“ This was the best car buying experience I have ever had. I worked with the dealer via text and phone and lined up great pricing and a trade in value (numbers checked vs. Kelly Blue Book) as well as approved 5 year/ 0% financing the day before I before I went to the dealership. I had to drive from Charleston to Augusta because none of the Charleston or Columbia dealers could even get close to this deal. When I got there, they didn't try to change any of the terms or upsell me anything else. They just showed me all the features on my new car, had me sign the paperwork, and I was out of there in 40 minutes total. Plus I LOVE my new CX5!!! This is how car buying should be. ”
Great folks, Great Place!
