Expert Reply:
The best 3-bike trunk rack that fits your 2012 Mazda 3 Sedan is the Saris Bones EX 3 part # SA803 which installs easily, has anti-sway cradles, and is lighter weight at only 11 lbs.
If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
