I recently test drove a Civic EX coupe and a Mazda3 hatch.
I found the Civic coupe to be a bit on the claustrophobic side and it had no grunt at all. Granted, it was the EX with the base motor and the SI does have more ponies.
I really liked the Mazda3 hatch I drove. Comfortable, good handling, decent brakes.
If I had to choose between the 2, I'd have taken the Mazda3.
I won't buy GM. Had too many issues with their cars in the past and it'll be a long time before I buy another.
