| Bottom line | There are some definite cabin tech deficiencies in the 2012 Mazda3 i Grand Touring, but its good gas mileage makes it a very practical everyday driver. | There may be slightly faster hot hatchbacks on the market, but the 2013 Mazda Mazdaspeed3 is still an absolute hoot to drive. | Although the 2012 Ford Focus has some quirks, it is a comfortable everyday kind of
car that gets very good fuel economy and offers a full range of cabin tech. | Choose the spartan 2013 Subaru BRZ Premium if you're looking for a fantastic driver's
car that carves corners with unmatched precision, but steer clear if cabin tech and "premium" comfort top your list of requirements. |
