This car runs and drives perfectly. It is a super-reliable and fun daily driver, it has been a great car to me over the last three years Ive owned it. It has been garage kept, I am the second owner and have only put 20,000 miles on the car. All of the accessories and parts have LESS THAN 10K MILES on them. Brand new Corksport Turbo, full exhaust and intake, all other parts are itemized below. This is an excellently maintained and highly-modified 2008 Cosmic Blue Mazda Mazdaspeed3. It is the Grand Touring model so it comes with HID Headlights, LED Taillights automatic headlights and wipers, Leather Seats, Red Stitching on Seats, Shift Boot, Steering Wheel, and the Bose Sound System. The car has a few dings and scratches from normal everyday use, but nothing serious. I have babied this car in every way. It was garage kept, and only driven on the weekends. Has low mileage for its age! Slightly over 90K miles, mostly from highway road-trips. I have invested over $20,000 in aftermarket parts and labor into this vehicle. All parts were installed professionally by RCT Performance in Queens, NY, and R/T Tuning in Montgomeryville, PA. The car is tuned by Justin at Freektune. I have EVERY RECEIPT for the parts and labor and will be included in the sale. I also have all the original parts should the buyer want them. Car has current NY inspection expiring 01/2018. The car passes inspection and emissions and does not have any check engine light. This car has been meticulously maintained. Oil changed every 3000 miles with 5w30 Synthetic Oil. Ive owned the car for almost 3 years, and it has never given me a problem. I have accumulated a number of other cars, so I have to let one go. I really have loved owning this car and I will be sad to see it go. The car will come with the stock 18 Mazdaspeed rims with the stock tires with 75% tread left. The Fifteen52 Tarmacs with Hanko

Mazda sells 10 millionth car in the US, does something special
Wed, 23 Oct 2013When Lauren Carter of Glen Ellyn, IL was in the market for her first car, she went for a Mazda3. Not a bad choice, but not necessarily remarkable on the surface. After all, Mazda sold 123,361 of them here last year alone. What she didn't know was that the car she bought was the 10 millionth Mazda had sold in the US over the course of its 43-year history here, since selling its first rotary-powered R100 here in 1970.
Rather than let the occasion pass with nothing more than a press release (like the one below), Mazda gave Lauren a brand-new 2014 Mazda3 to replace the 2013 model she had bought. Which is a nice gesture, of course, but also enables Mazda to hold on to the landmark 10,000,000th car in its heritage collection.
Japanese automakers ramping production for renewed American sales
Wed, 21 Nov 2012The 2011 earthquake and tsunami that struck Japan took quite the toll on the automotive industry in that nation. Not content to lean on that tragedy as excuse for slagging sales, the Japanese automakers are planning on a major production expansion in North America. The aim is to reclaim the market share lost from the Tsunami-based dip, and overcome a dollar/yen exchange rate that makes exporting to America unprofitable.
Following the Tsunami, Japanese automakers ramped up production in their North American facilities to compensate, but according to Automotive News, Nissan, Honda and others have all reported plans for still-further increased production in the year ahead. As part of this ramp-up, Mazda will open a facility in Salamnca, Mexico before March of 2014. Part of that increase in output is 50,000 units of a Toyota-badged compact car, which Mazda will produce.
Other Mexican production facilities opening include a Honda plant, which will open in Spring 2014 in Celaya, and a Nissan plant, set to open later this year in Aguascalientes. Nissan also said that it will need another plant in North America within the next five years. According to Nissan Boss Carlos Ghosn, the company aims to raise its stake in the US market from 8 percent to 10, and adding production will help achieve that goal. Even Mitsubishi is aiming to boost production at its Normal, Illinois plant. Production of the Outlander Sport is currently at 50,000, which Mitsubishi wants to raise to 70,000.
Takashi Yamanouchi to retire as Mazda chairman
Mon, 12 May 2014Takashi Yamanouchi has been with Mazda for a long time. He signed on with the Japanese automaker in April 1967 - one month after graduating from Keio University - and rose through the ranks over the years. By 1996 he was named to the company's board of directors. In 2008 he was named president and CEO, an office he held until 2013, after which he handed over the day-to-day reins to Masamichi Kogai and took up the seat at the head of the board room to serve as the company's chairman. But now, after 47 years working for Mazda, Yamanouchi-san is retiring at the age of 69.
During his tenure as CEO and then as chairman, Yamanouchi was credited with growing Mazda's business despite unfavorable fluctuations in exchange rates, opening the company's first plant in Mexico, and spearheading the development of Mazda's Skyactiv technologies and Kodo design language.
In his place, current vice chairman Seita Kanai will take over as chairman. The changing of the guard will take place after the annual shareholders' meeting on June 24.
