Mazda 3 has some advantage in horsepower, but Corolla XRS is much more intense, aggressive and performance driven than the 3.

I don't know where you get this info from ... but the Auto Industry and Magazines are prasing Mazdas like they are Jesus Christ.
Car and Drive for example has been doing comparison tests ever since they have been in existance and i have a collection of bunch of issues where they are comparing the compact class of cars ( Civic, Corolla, Protege .. etc ) and guess what ... since the 80s till today Mazda came on top in comparisons:
-1989 Car and Driver champ = Mazda Protege ( 1st generation )
-1995 Car and Driver champ = Mazda Protege ( 2nd generation )
-1998 Car and Driver champ = Mazda Protege ( 3rd generation )
-2000 Car and Driver champ = Mazda Protege
-2001 Car and Driver champ = Mazda Protege Mazdaspeed ( i don't belive Toyota even had an entry in the compact performance class )
-2004 Car and Driver champ = Mazda 3 ( 4th generation )
