Hello, I am selling my 2007 Mazdaspeed3 GT.  I am the only owner/driver of this vehicle.  Took it out of the dealership as soon as it arrived from the delivery truck.  This car has 36k miles on it and was barely driven. In fact, for the first 2 years since I bought the car I took the bus to take the metro. Who buys a new car and takes the bus? This guy apparently, but I digress.

The car has been babied well, parking in far and empty spots and some of the interior parts still have their protective covers on them.  I really never got to enjoy the car from babying it too much, but my loss is your gain.

Pros
-Stock (only the door molding has been removed, looks so much better w/o and I still have them, if you decide to put it on)
-Accident free, never raced or clutch dropped
-Stock clutch still strong as the first day
-Oil changes always done with Mazda filters and Pennzoil Ultra Synthetic 5w30
-Some interior parts still have protective covers
-Steering is very tight, can "feel the road"
-Blast to drive on highways
-Brakes are awesome on this car
-Since purchase, only used Shell V-Power 93 Oct.
-Non Smoker car
-Gets about 270-300miles per tank

Cons
-3 Door dings. 1 on each quarter panel and 1 on passenger door (pics included)
-Minor tiny paint chips and 2 scratches. 1 on lower driver door and inside driver door (pics included)
-front windows stick occasionally
-the rear shocks need replacing, but is still drivable

The front tires have about 65% tread and the rear (factory tires) has about 35% tread.

The car is being sold AS-IS.
I will accept cash payment or bank-to-bank wire transfers. I REQUIRE that you be present at my local bank at the time of deposit/transaction.

Please let me know if you have any questions!

10 automakers shack up in Detroit hotel to talk Takata airbags

Sun, Dec 14 2014

Since Takata has decided not to take the lead concerning potential issues with its airbag inflators, the automakers have. Perhaps that's unsurprising, since it's the automakers, not Takata, that will take a beating on the dealership floor if consumers decide its models are a health hazards. The Detroit News reports that Toyota, Honda, General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Mazda, BMW, Nissan, Mitsubishi and Subaru met in a hotel conference room near the Detroit Metropolitan Airport last week to sort out a way to understand the technical issues involved. So far, faulty airbag inflators have been ruled the cause of five deaths and 50 injuries around the world, but neither Takata nor investigators understands exactly why the inflators are malfunctioning. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recently asked Takata to issue a national recall, Takata declined, citing a minuscule failure rate and the fact that it's still investigating the issue. Toyota and Honda then made an industry-wide appeal for "a coordinated, comprehensive testing program" that would pinpoint the problem inflators and get them replaced, and that's what the Detroit meeting was about. Numerous issues, however, will make this a long row to hoe: simply getting the parts to replace the nearly 20 million inflators in cars recalled around the world so far - even working with other suppliers - will take a years, but more importantly, no one knows if the replacement inflators currently being installed will suffer the same issue. Answers will hopefully come quickly with Takata, the ten automakers and NHTSA all independently investigating the problem.

2014 Mazda6: Winter's End Update

Mon, 14 Apr 2014

The Winter Without End is seemingly dead. Outside my office windows, my brown and yellow lawn is fully exposed to the increasingly powerful sunshine, the morning birdsong is louder than anything until the garbage trucks start rolling, and I'm seriously considering having the summer tires put back on my personal fleet. That last one is a little scary, as I'm a firm believer in the April Snow Jinx, but you get the idea.
The long-term Mazda6 has also long since left my driveway. Looking back on my notes from the time it was in my charge, however, I see all remarks are dominated by one highlighted section at the top: "worst winter drive of all time." I hardly need the reminder, to be honest. Here's what happened.
When the Mazda showed up at my door, we'd already fitted the thing with its new winter rubber: Bridgestone Blizzaks. Plunking down for dedicated snow tires was a near necessity this year - as it almost always is in Michigan. We didn't see much reprieve from snow-choked, iced over roads here in Ann Arbor, and the knobbier rubber proved invaluable in getting me out of my house time and again.

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.
