Mazda3

Going retro:

Hardly any body roll even when cornering - the Mazda 3 is such a fun toy to carve corners with.

Don't you feel it's time to book a new 3, jut sir?

I'm actually still very happy with the performance of my 11-year old Mazda 3. It has most of the toys that the new 3 has, with a better engine than the 1.5V, drives really well, and best of all, costs 1/3 a bnew Mazda 3 (1/4 if we're looking at the equivalent 2.0R).

Besides, I just bought a brand new compact. 😁



Since Mazdas have poor resale value, in 5 years I could probably sell the Altis and get a 2.0R for the same price. 😄

Basta stock, why not. Roof repaint palang naman ata ginagawa niya dun?

EDIT: White na sedan na 2.0 pala gusto ko. I'm sure marami naman yan in the future. 😊

This was actually something i was considering some time ago (for a second car). Buying a second hand Mazda is quite a good deal indeed so long as you get one that's decently maintained (i've seen some quite ratty units too). It's like buying a Nissan before; good car, good value for money for second hand buyers. And when you resell, your percentage drop in resale isn't too bad anymore. I saw one 2.0R up for sale on OLX which looked promising too.

975k for a 1-year old 2.0 unit, is that the one you saw? Super sulit IMO, compared to a 1.5V. Anything that could go wrong with the car is still covered by Yojin3.

Aren't we all glad to see how Mazda has turned out to be the true Hobo badge. New or old, you get way more than you actually pay for.:D....
Unlike those other makes who now only have history of resale to flaunt, badges of preconceived reliability to bank on, but actually lack the substance motorists & enthusiasts alike are looking for ......who are they really kidding?:D✌

Grats on the great M3 find, jut sir! Hope someday you'll find yourself a good used gen3.
