"My Bee" has been a wonderful car for my wife for the last 5 years. We are actually the second owners as the first owner was actually the dealer who kept the car at their vacation home for a year. The second owner of record only put 9K miles on the car in the next 4 years. The exceptional condition of this gas sipping 4 cylinder wagon will please it's next owner. It has a smooth shifting 5 speed manual transmission, front wheel drive, power steering, and has a peppy engine which gets over 30 mpg on the highway. The A/C keeps you cool in the summer and the soft custom black/yellow leather seats will keep you comfortable all year. Custom floor mats and cargo mat were installed to protect the carpets and brighten the interior while matching the soft custom leather seats. A custom fitted plastic cargo tray is included in the sale but not pictured. Last year we replaced the front and rear brakes with Hawk HPS pads, Stoptech cross drilled rotors, and new braided lines. We replaced all of the struts with new Tokico HP struts and alignment. We also replaced the prior custom wheels with Stinger wheels and Hankook tires. All belts were also replaced at that time. The result is a wagon that handles like a dream without losing comfort and does it quietly. We invested in these items as we were going to keep the car for a long time but a change in jobs has made it necessary to buy a newer, larger, (and more expensive) wagon for my wife. All of the power options are in operating condition. The C/D changer skips and should be replaced but the stereo radio works fine. The interior door lock switch has moved slightly in it's channel (shown in picture of the interior drivers door) and still operates the locks well. A known problem with the Prot'eg'e is that the headlights (inexpensive) seem to blow out more often than most cars and is true with this Prot'eg'e. They are OK now. The exterior is in exceptional condition with a couple of exceptions. I pictured two small chips in the paint about the size of a pin head. One is on the driver side rear door and the other is on the edge of the driver side front wheel lip. I will touch these up before you buy the car. There is an area where the paint is scratched in front of the passenger front wheel. It is hard to see (even in the pictures in this ad) as most of it is below the visible part of the body. Again this will be touched up before the car is sold. My camera took great pictures but they are too large for ebay and these pictures were taken by my phone and are more grainy and less shiny. Contact me to get better pictures if needed. I am very picky about the looks and functionality of our cars and want to be honest about their condition. You will appreciate the condition of this car and enjoy it for years. The interior is beautiful with the custom leather being in excellent shape. There are no tears or scratches but only a very slight rubbed area in the crease of the drivers back and that is not really noticeable. The rear seat has some depressions in it from the baby seat but they are disappearing. Any questions...just give me a ring at 314-359-2002. I have priced it to sell fast so don't hesitate to call with your questions. Mick |

2016 Mazda6 and CX-5 see gentle price hike
Thu, Feb 12 2015Mazda has modestly updated the Mazda6 and CX-5 for the 2016 model year, and the company just announced revised pricing for the pair. The vehicles cost a little more now, but buyers also get additional features and an improved look. When it comes to the 2016 Mazda6, the already attractive sedan wears a revised look up front with more chrome and a redesigned cabin with a new instrument layout and seven-inch infotainment system on most models. Mechanically, things carry over with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder making 184 horsepower and 185 pound-feet and either a six-speed manual or automatic gearbox depending on trim. The base Sport trim with a six-speed manual gearbox costs $305 more than it did in 2015, and starts at $21,495*, plus an $820 destination charge on all models. Upgrading to the automatic gearbox at $22,995 also adds the revised infotainment system and reverse camera. Prices top out at $30,195 for the Grand Touring, which is $300 more than last year. All of the other versions see a $100 year-over-year increase. LED headlights are standard on the Grand Touring, but they can be added to the Touring through the Touring Technology package for $1,675. The 2016 CX-5 sees light exterior upgrades and similar interior improvements as the Mazda6, including the improved infotainment system for some trims. Pricing rings up for $250 more than last year, except the all-wheel drive Sport trim at just an extra $50. The cheapest CX-5 is the front-wheel Sport with a manual gearbox and 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 155 hp and 150 lb-ft, and it costs $21,795. All other models combine a 2.5-liter four-cylinder with 184 hp and 185 lb-ft with a six-speed automatic. Prices go all the way up to $29,470 for a CX-5 Grand Touring with all-wheel drive. There's a new i-Activesense package for the Grand Touring for $1,500, as well, that adds safety sensors and radar cruise control, but it can only be combined with the Grand Touring Technology Package for $1,505 with navigation and LED headlights. 2016 Mazda6 Pricing Announced IRVINE, Calif. (February 9, 2015) – Mazda North American Operations (MNAO) today announced pricing for its refreshed 2016 Mazda6 midsize sedan lineup. The 2016 Mazda6 is available in three trim levels – Sport, Touring and Grand Touring – and is equipped with the SKYACTIV-G 2.5-liter gasoline engine. There are a number of enhancements for 2016 including bold changes to the shape of the instrument panel and floor console giving the interior a fresh new look.
Feds investigating 2010-11 Mazda CX-9 CUVs over braking issues
Mon, 17 Feb 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating 62,000, 2010-2011 Mazda CX-9 models over brake problems. The government safety watchdog says it has received seven complaints of an observed loss of power braking power to stop the crossover, according to the The Detroit News.
The NHTSA complaints say that the problem causes a hard pedal, increased braking effort and reduced braking effectiveness. Some complaints allege that they hear a hissing noise during braking similar to the sound of air leaving the tires. No injuries or crashes have been reported.
"As always, we are fully cooperating with NHTSA on their investigation. We cannot comment further at this time," said Mazda spokesperson Tamara Mlynarczyk to The Detroit News.
2016 Mazda CX-3 is a 2 cute ute
Tue, 18 Nov 2014One day removed from our latest round of spy photos, Mazda has finally lifted the veil on its 2016 CX-3 crossover, giving us our very first glimpse at the Mazda2-based entry into the rapidly expanding world of subcompact crossovers.
Mazda's KODO design language is once again on display, presenting some increasingly familiar styling touchstones including a five-point grille that integrates neatly with the front headlights to present an almost protruding snout that's both clean and complex. Like previous KODO designs, the CX-3's profile features swoopy character lines that highlight the wheel arches and a higher beltline. Mazda has cleverly chosen to black out the CX-3's D-pillar in favor of a floating roof look, a design decision that adds to the model's fashionable styling. It's the rear of the design that borrows most heavily from the Mazda2, largely in the shape of the headlights and rear hatch.
Globally, under that fashionable sheetmetal sits Mazda's 2.0-liter Skyactiv four-cylinder that can be mated to a six-speed manual or automatic. Unfortunately, in North America, it looks like we'll only get the automatic. Regardless of gearbox, power can be sent to an optional next-gen all-wheel-drive system that uses the active torque control system found on the Mazda CX-5. Like the Mazda2, front-drive is standard.
