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 CX-3 details come to light
Sun, 09 Dec 2012Mazda may be working on a new CUV, according to Auto Express. Reportedly called the CX-3, the small crossover will be engineered to take on the likes of the Ford EcoSport and Nissan Juke, but with a focus on fuel efficiency and engaging driving characteristics.
The report names no sources, but says the CX-3 will benefit from a new small-displacement diesel engine. The 1.6-liter oil burner will be joined by a 1.3-liter gasoline engine when the vehicle debuts in 2014. Auto Express reports the model may bow as a front-wheel drive offering only, with no all-wheel-drive option.
And what will it look like? Word has it Mazda will continue to leverage the face we've seen on the current CX-5 (pictured). That means the company's shield grille will make the jump, but with more plastic lower body cladding. Inside, Auto Express says the CX-3 will offer buyers fold-flat rear seating for extra cargo capacity.
Tow truck driver hilariously bad at righting a flipped Mazda
Wed, 30 Oct 2013Can rolling your car get any worse? The correct answer is yes, as this poor soul found out when he rolled his Mazda3 onto its side. Calling a tow truck might be a logical, post-rollover move, but in this case, it kind of made the situation worse.
We don't want to give away just what happened, so you'll need to scroll down and watch the video. A fair warning, though, it does contain a moment of colorful language towards the end, so watching it at work, with the volume up, might not be wise. Have a look below for the full video.
Mazda recalls 109k Tribute models for rust issue
Fri, 18 Apr 2014The Mazda Tribute is being hit with a similar recall as its platform-mate the Ford Escape underwent a few weeks ago. Mazda is recalling 109,000 Tributes from model years 2001 to 2004. On the trucks, the subframe can rust from road salt, potentially causing the lower control arm to detach. If this happens, a loss of steering control could occur.
Mazda is adding a reinforcement crossbrace for added strength on the affected models. The recall covers Tributes currently registered in or originally sold in 20 northern states and Washington, DC, where road salt is used.
The reinforcement braces aren't available yet to do the repair. Mazda will send a letter in May to owners of affected vehicles that will inform them of the problem, and a second letter telling them when the parts will be ready. Scroll down to read the full recall press release.
