Mazda 3 2.5 6spd auto or ILX 2.4 8spd aDCT ?
I’m looking to get a new car. Which do you think is quicker ? An Acura ILX 2.4 with 8-speed auto or another Mazda 3 2.5 with 6-speed auto ? In my test drive, I think the Mazda is better in 0-30. It pushes me back to my seat. Not sure if it’s my imagination.

How about a Mazda3 s GT with a 2.5 liter 6-Speed Manual instead.
