I have been looking to purchase a Mazda CX3 for a number of months now and finally done it- the time is right :D . I have gained a lot of useful knowledge from this excellent site. The information has been of enormous use in helping me decide that the CX3 is the car for me.
I have ordered a Sport + petrol manual in Eternal blue, due to be delivered at the end of December. I currently have a Honda Civic 1.8 Type S
that I have owned from new in 2010. It has been a brilliant car - yes it has a harsh ride but has a great engine and the overall reliability has been excellent. A bit sad to see the Honda go but I am so impressed with the CX3 package.
Looking forward to having an input to the site and will post some photos and initial thoughts when I soon take delivery.

Looks like Dynamic Blue in the photo. I thought Eternal Blue was a lot paler.

I agree Andy that does look like Dynamic Blue. I was looking at an Eternal Blue in the showroom yesterday and it was a lot lighter. Maybe it's just the photo that makes it look darker.

I think the CX3 looks great in all the available colours. I was torn between Machine Grey and Eternal Blue. So I let my wife make the decision- Eternal Blue it is then! I loved the colour of my Honda, similar to the Dynamic blue so nice to have a bit of a change.[img][/
