This MazdaSpeed3 is in Excellent condition!  I've babied & pampered this car since day one.  Never red-lined- not even close.  No mechanical problems whatsoever.  No accidents, no wrecks, no dents.  Only a few very small scratches probably from people brushing up against it, and a couple very minor bends in 2 of the wheels, I believe.  I purchased it new in 8/2008.   I added the Mazda chrome fuel door, window tinting and the rear bumper-protector at time of purchase.  I've always had a towel on the drivers seat to sit on in order to prevent any wear/aging on the upholstery. I also purchased a spare set of floor mats that are new in the wrapper so they would be new when the (sad) day came to sell it, which would be now, unfortunately.


It has been operated only on premium fuel- I've been the sole driver.  72mo/75,000 Mazda TotalCare extended warranty (transferrable) is included!...  basically covers everything except normal wear/tear.
I'm Planning a trip to Denver & back  mid August, so expect approx. 2,000 miles more if not sold by 8/14.
But wait... there's more! 
In January 2010, I had the following factory-authorized modifications done by the Mazda dealership: 
     Added the Mazda Cold Air Intake (approx $600)   
     Added the Mazda Performance Exhaust System.(approx. $950).
     Purchased a Cobb tuner. (paid $625.)  This is the handheld computer that allows you to tweak settings, etc.  They set it on a specific setting and it hasn't changed since.

None of these modifications affect the warranties, and I have kept most of the parts that were replaced for the cold-air intake mod, if you want them, as well as the original fuel door.
This Speed3 has only been street-driven, NEVER raced, never seen a track. Factory governed at 165, I believe, but the Cobb tuner can overwrite that.
I LOVE driving this car, so if terms are reached, I'm open to discussing a possible one-way road trip in your direction.
Thanks for taking the time to read all of this, and I assure you, all of the descriptions are accurate.

2021 L.A. Auto Show roundup | All the reveals, reviews, pictures

Thu, Nov 18 2021

The L.A. Auto Show took place this week for the first time since the onset of the pandemic. It was a show packed with news and reveals, which hasn't really been the case with other shows we've seen this year, and Autoblog was on the floor covering every minute of it. Well, Riswick and Stocksdale were, anyway. The rest of us were sitting at home in our sweatpants, but hey, we'll take credit anyway. Let's get to it. Hyundai Seven Concept This is the Hyundai Seven Concept, and it’s meant to act as a preview for an incoming electric SUV for the Ioniq brand. It leans more toward the concept side of the spectrum than a production car, but expect the final SUV to take design cues from the Seven Concept. Kia Concept EV9 The Hyundai Seven counterpart isn't the only big, bold electric SUV at L.A. this year. Kia has its own take, and it's a modernized version of the traditional boxy utility vehicle called the Concept EV9. It also previews one of the next production electric cars for the brand, which should look right at home next to things like the Telluride. 2023 Kia Sportage HEV As promised, the 2023 Kia Sportage HEV has been revealed. The hybrid powertrain makes the compact SUV the most powerful version available, and it goes on sale next year. The engine is a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder paired with a 44-kW electric motor. Total output is 226 horsepower. The company didn't give a torque number, but it should basically be the same as the Sorento HEV that has the same basic powertrain: 258 pound-feet. Those numbers are a healthy step up from the 187 horsepower of the base 2.5-liter engine. 2022 Range Rover If you noticed how extra smooth and suave the new Range Rover looked during its recent reveal, Autoblog's James Riswick got a design tour that revealed some of the technological secrets to its success. "Less is more" is harder to achieve than it looks. Fisker Ocean Fisker has brought the new Ocean EV to the L.A. Auto Show, with a public preview at Manhattan Beach and a presence at the show itself. You can watch the public show reveal above, and see more shots from the show floor below. Fisker says the Ocean will start at $37,499 before incentives. That entry model would be the Sport trim with a single, 275-horsepower motor driving the front wheels and 250 miles of estimated range. It also has a 0-60 time of 6.9 seconds. 2023 Toyota bZ4X This is the 2023 Toyota bZ4X, due to hit U.S.

Mazda3 successor due in dealers this fall

Sat, 23 Mar 2013

Following exciting new models like the 2013 CX-5 and 2014 Mazda6, Mazda is getting ready to introduce the next generation of its high-volume compact, the Mazda3. After talking to several of Mazda's dealers, Automotive News is reporting that the automaker is planning to introduce its new compact this fall, which is earlier than what was originally reported.
Aside from what we've seen in recent spy shots and what appeared to be a full-scale design mockup back in October, there is little information about the third-generation 3, but we can see that the car will get plenty of cues from Mazda's stylish Kodo design language, and we expect even more technologies from the company's SkyActiv efficiency program to come to bear. AN says that Mazda is hoping to top 300,000 sales this year in the US, and the sooner Mazda can replace the current aging 3, the better chances it has at reaching that goal.

Mazdaspeed2 supermini hot hatch under consideration

Thu, 21 Aug 2014

Though the Ford Fiesta ST and Fiat 500 Abarth (and arguably the Mini Cooper S) may stand pretty much alone in the North American market, in overseas markets, supermini hot hatches are a big deal. Unfortunately, challengers like the Volkswagen Polo GTI, Seat Ibiza Cupra and Renault Clio RS 200 Turbo never make it to our showrooms, but word has it that there's soon to be a new entry on the market.
That would be the Mazdaspeed2, which would be badged in certain markets as the Mazda2 MPS. Speaking with Australian site CarAdvice.com.au at the launch of the Mazda2 on which it would be based, the Japanese automaker's global sales chief and the hatchback's deputy product manager hinted that such a product is definitely being discussed, even if it hasn't yet been approved.
This wouldn't be the first time such a notion were entertained, as Mazda has shown numerous performance concepts based on the previous Mazda2/Demio over the years, but none have come to fruition.
