2006 Mazda 6 V6 3.0 Great Shape. Highway Miles. Lots Of Tlc And Maintanence on 2040-cars
Lincoln Park, New Jersey, United States
|
Your bidding on a 2003 Mazda 6 3.0 V6. She is in overall great shape. She bought brand new by the last owner and was pretty much driven on the highway only. I bought the car from a girl that I work with, she lives in south jersey and commutes to north jersey for work and school. It's all highway miles and according to her she never got the car over 70mph. She babied it and took very good care of it. Carfax shows a lot of service records in fact. She told me that every time it needed something done to it or just needed regular maintenance, her dad would get it done. I was recently in an accident with my other car and I needed a vehicle to use while my car was being fixed. And my co-worker was selling this car because she had graduated college and daddy was buying her a new car. The car runs very well. Always starts, never once stalled, doesn't smoke, and transmission shifts smooth and strong. As you can see by the photo, tires have good amount of tread, and according to the girl i bought it from, the brakes were last changed when she got new tires, so they should have a good amount of meat on them too. Over all the car runs very well, in fact I would not be mad if thew auction doesnt sell and I had to keep it longer. It really is a joy to drive. The body is in pretty good shape to. The only real issue the body had that I can find was a little bit of rust bubbles starting to form on the passenger rear wheel well. But don't worry, I sanded, bondoed and painted it and I think I did a good job if I don't say so myself. Unless your inspecting the area for damage you will never notice there was bondo put on. The body also may have a small ding or two and possibly a tiny scratch or two. I didn't see any but I also havn't gone over the body with a magnifier... Couple little chips in the front bumber paint from pebbles hitting it over the years. The horn does not work... I don't know why. I just installed a brand new passenger side headlight assembly, however there is no fog light socket in the new one, but all the other lights on the car work great! As for the inside, there is less than normal wear and tear I would say. Leather looks great on all the seats. Only two small issues are with the passenger rear headliner. It's fell loose and is wrinkled a bit, and also the radio/ a/c screen tends to go haywire and cannot be read sometimes. Everything continues to work fine, it's just hard to read the info. Otherwise I think that's it. gauges all work, a/c blows cold, heat and all vents work great! I think the heated seats may have stopped heating but it's hard for me to tell, feels warm to me but she said the driver side at least did not heat anymore for her. Only other minor glitch is that the engine light recently came on. I scanned it and it says that it is running lean. I googled possible reasons and it said maybe a small vacuum leak which is easily fixable, I just have not had time to inspect the engine compartment to look for it. If I find the leak I will amend the posting and let everyone know. Otherwise the car is not effected by the engine light being on. It still runs exactly the same, runs like a champ. Last thing...I think, the spare tire doughnut went missing somewhere along the line...
This car is in great shape and I do expect it to sell for top dollar. PLEASE SERIOUS BIDDERS ONLY! Will consider delivering the car up to 100 miles for a flat rate of $250.00 Otherwise local pick up only. |

Lexus, Mazda win KBB 5-Year Cost To Own Awards
Wed, 05 Feb 2014We focus a lot on what new cars are like to drive, but it's difficult on a one-week loan to really get a sense of what a car is like to live with. Sure, we try to recreate that sense with our long-term vehicles, but even after a year, it's impossible to know fully learn about a car, particularly in terms of reliability and cost of repairs. For 2014 model year vehicles, Kelley Blue Book has put together a list of the most affordable vehicles over a five-year period.
At the tippy top of the list are Mazda and Lexus, with the Zoom-Zoom automaker winning the award for best non-luxury brand. Lexus, meanwhile, was the most affordable luxury marque over a five-year period. It's interesting to note, though, that not a single Mazda won its segment in this year's awards.
General Motors did quite well, taking eight segments, including both the subcompact and plug-in segments, with the gas-powered Chevrolet Spark and Spark EV. The Chevy Camaro SS and ZL1 took the high-performance car award. Toyota was well represented, with five winners split between the main brand (Corolla, Prius C and Tacoma) and Lexus (LS and RX).
2014 Mazda3 Sedan
Wed, 02 Oct 2013Playing Favorites
We're not going to beat around the bush: for the kind of person who willfully chooses to take longer, windier and more scenic routes to get to Point B, the 2014 Mazda3 is the new compact car measuring stick by which others will be judged. That doesn't, of course, make it the right choice for every buyer.
We'll spend the next thousand words or so explaining the whys and hows that make our opening statement a fact, but for now, suffice it to say that Mazda has engineered its latest crop of vehicles - namely the CX-5, Mazda6 and its smaller sibling and subject of this test, the Mazda3 - from the ground up. Absolutely everything about the Mazda3 is refined for 2014, from its chassis to its engines and everything in between, and it was done in a completely new and holistic way. Every component, subcomponent and stamping required to bolt and weld together an automobile was rethought to ensure the Mazda3 has what it takes to compete with such established benchmarks as the Honda Civic and Ford Focus.
California adapts ZEV mandate with PHEVs for smaller automakers
Fri, Jun 5 2015California is the nation's largest market for zero-emissions vehicles with over 100,000 of them estimated to be on the roads there. The state's goal is to keep that number growing every year. To that end, the California Air Resources Board is now tweaking its rules in a way that might not boost ZEVs but could mean more plug-in hybrids for the Golden State. Jaguar Land Rover, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Subaru, and Volvo asked for an exemption to the state's zero-emissions vehicle mandate last year due to their relatively small development budgets compared to larger automakers. CARB denied their request but did craft a compromise, according to Automotive News. Rather than being required to offer a ZEV in the state, companies with an annual global revenue of less than $40 billion, like those in this group, may instead sell plug-in hybrids to earn ZEV credits. The companies aren't completely off the hook, though. If these plug-in hybrids don't earn enough credits, the corporations must buy them on the market to make up the difference. Automakers with popular electric models like Nissan and Tesla have made a big business through this trading system by selling their surplus to rivals. Tesla alone pocketed $51 million in the first quarter from this part of its business, according to Automotive News. The changes to the regulations also aren't set in stone, yet. CARB is meeting in 2016 and could adjust things further at that time.
