Hi Everyone,


I am selling my 2004 Mazda 3S 2.3L. The car is in great condition, but I can't afford to keep two cars on my insurance and I just purchased a new one a few months ago.

I bought the car in Oct 2010 with 87K miles on it from a dealer and have driven it as my everyday commuter car since then. I get about 30mpg on average and if on long highway trips that moves closer to 32 or 33mpg. It is also very spacious and I have been surprised how many things I have been able to transport in it. It is also great in the snow and has gotten me up some pretty steep hills on absolutely covered roads.

It runs great with no mechanical issues. The engine runs smooth with no hesitation, no leaks, no unusual noises. Transmission shifts smoothly with no clunks, grinding or issues. Suspension and brakes work perfectly. As with every car I own, maintenance has been kept up with according to the manual (full synthetic oil changes every 3K miles, transmission fluid changes every 30k, brakes, tire rotations, etc). Additionally, I just put new tires on it less than 5K miles ago and had a new radiator put in after a stone pierced the old one. The car is in excellent mechanical condition and was inspected January 2013 in PA.

The interior is in great condition too. No rips, tears or scrapes. AC/ heat both work great and the radio plays like a champ.

As you will see in the car history report, the car was involved in two accidents. The first was before I owned it, but I never saw any issues with the car resulting from that damage (mechanically or cosmetically). The second was a VERY low speed minor collision while I owned the car. I was coming out of a school parking lot after watching a soccer game and I went to make a right turn. There was a van next to me in the left turning lane when I approached the stop sign. We were both stopped, then we both went to make our turns, except the van decided to also turn right without signalling. I saw it coming over and stopped and it hit the front driver's quarter panel and bumper at about 5 mph (denting/ scraping both). It was deemed the van's fault and I had it fully repaired. Looks brand new and there was no damage other than cosmetically to those two items that were replaced.

Please note: There are three minor things that aren't perfect, as it is a used car. First, there are a few small scrapes on the back bumper from someone bumping into me when parallel parking (pictured). Second, the shift knob has some of the finish worn off (also pictured). Finally, the electric switch for the side mirrors does not work- I believe it needs a new relay, but just haven't had time to fix it. I know these are minor, but I just want to ensure there are no surprises, as it is a great car!

Thanks and Happy Bidding!

2014 Mazda3 2.0L Hatchback officially rated at 40 mpg highway

Thu, 11 Jul 2013


The Environmental Protection Agency has spoken, and these are the miles per gallon numbers it has officially bestowed on the 2014 five-door Mazda3 hatchback with the SkyActiv-G 2.0-liter engine: 29 city, 40 highway, 33 combined when fitted with the six-speed manual; 30 city, 40 highway and 33 combined when equipped with the six-speed automatic.
Those numbers exactly match the fuel economy targets that Mazda had set for the car when optioned with the 2.0-liter Skyactiv-G with 155 horsepower and 150 pound-feet of torque. For comparison to other cars in the segment, the EPA numbers for the 2013 Honda Civic sedan are 28 city, 39 highway, 32 combined when its 140-hp, 1.8-liter four-cylinder is paired with the five-speed automatic. The Hyundai Elantra GT gets 27 city, 37 highway and 30 combined according to the EPA when its 148-hp, 1.8-liter four-cylinder is paired with either a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission. The numbers for the 2014 Ford Focus aren't out yet.

NHTSA releases updated Takata airbag recalled cars list, but it still has errors

Wed, 22 Oct 2014



Unfortunately, the government's list still contains errors.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued an updated list of vehicle models that it's urging owners to repair under the mushrooming Takata airbag inflator recall. The latest version adds vehicles from new automakers like Subaru and Ford that are missing from the original announcement, and it also removes erroneous entries from General Motors, leaving only the 2005 Saab 9-2X (a reskinned Subaru WRX), and the 2003-2005 Pontiac Vibe, a joint project with Toyota.
