This car was featured in the Auto Show in Chicago introducing the new "Third Generation" styling. There were 3500 units manufactured and numbered, with approximately half being offered in the United States. This car is number 279. I purchased the car new off the showroom floor at Mazda Direct in Columbus, Ohio on May 2, 2006, with 4 miles showing. I paid full sticker of $27,360.00 because no discounts were available on these models. I'm 60 years old and have been the only driver. I have not licensed the car this year and it has been in my garage since February. There were no trips back to the dealership for warranty work since I purchased.
I changed oil using Mobil synthetic every 3,000 miles. It uses high test gasoline and consistently gets 30 MPG. All service records have been kept and are with the car. The ThirdGen cars have special paint (velocity red) chrome around the windshield and special wheels (list for $750 each) as well as Bose sound system and leather seating. The seats were covered and show minimal wear. It is a fun vehicle to drive and it looks great. According to Kelley Blue Book the private pary value for my car is @13,244.00. As I have kept excellent care maintenance as well as operating I believe it is worth that amount. It can be purchased as a vehicle for your family member and you can be confident they can travel trouble free and go anywhere at anytime. Collectors may be interested in the exclusive numbered new model type. I wish to market my car to a buyer which appreciates an excellent used vehicle. Thank You

Mazda's awesome Hiroshima museum now navigable by Google Maps
Fri, 15 Mar 2013Visiting an auto museum is one of the best ways we know to connect with car culture and to commune with the past and bone up on one's knowledge. Most of us have a decent museum within a few hours drive of where we live, but that doesn't mean it's easy to see the world's great collections - factors like cost, time and mobility can get in the way. Videos are great, but they don't allow us to browse at our own pace or choose what we'd like to focus on. The folks behind Google Maps have a solution - the virtual museum tour, as seen here at Mazda's fantastic museum in Hiroshima, Japan.
The Google Maps tour allows viewers to take a walk through the main exhibition area of the museum, and you can focus on specific classic cars from Mazda, or check out displays featuring new technologies like Skyactiv. To take a quick spin through the museum - or a leisurely stroll at your own pace - scroll down to start your own virtual tour.
Mazda3 officially unveiled
Wed, 26 Jun 2013Mazda has officially pulled the sheets off of its 2014 Mazda3. The all-new compact boasts a wheelbase that's a full 2.4 inches longer than the outgoing model, yet the hatchback is a nearly two inches shorter from stem to stern. The machine is also lower and wider than before, which should give occupants plenty of space indoors. The driver gets treated to a new human-machine interface that features a new Active Driving Display for information like vehicle speed and navigation instructions conveniently in the line of sight. Likewise, the vehicle's infotainment system has received a complete rebuild.
Outside, the new Mazda3 makes full use of the company's KODO design language, and to our eyes, the result is one of the most attractive entries in the segment. Jump under the hood, and buyers can expect to find a Skyactiv-G 2.0-liter gasoline engine with 155 horsepower and 150 pound-feet of torque, though no fuel economy estimates are available. For those looking for a bit more thrust, Mazda also offers a 2.5-liter Skyactiv-G gasoline mill with 184 hp and 185 lb-ft of torque. So far there's no word on the diesel engine available to our friends in Europe.
Both engines can be mated to either a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic and feature the automaker's i-ELOOP brake energy regeneration systems. The recaptured energy is stored in a capacitor and used to power the vehicle's various electrical systems.
