 Mileage – 150K miles on car.  This averages out to 13K a year for the 11 years I have owned the car.  I would say it is about a 70/30 split between highway and city driving…

Service – car was maintained with the recommended manufacture service schedule form local Mazda dealer, as well, the oil has been changed every 5K miles using new oil, not the re-manufactured crap you get Jiffy Lube. About this time last year, over $1500 was spent replacing the gaskets and seals on the engine, the spark plugs and wires/coils, throttle valve, front breaks, and some other miscellaneous maintenance..  The transmission oil has also recently been changed and was given a clean bill of health.. 

The brakes and suspension are in great shape with no flutter; however, I will say that a set of tires are on the horizon for the new owner and the car is price as such..  I would guess there is still 10K of meat left on them.

Appearance and Body – considering it age it looks good and is very clean..  There are a few parking lot dings scrapes and bumps, etc.,, but nothing bigger that a dime..  This car has never been in an accident as verified by the Carfax report. All the lights are working with no cracks, all power windows and side sliding remote doors work as they should, as with the power remote locks..  Also has a trailer hitch with a working standard plug for the trailer lights..  This was added for a bike rack which is included.  As for the extras… the only thing added to this car was an iPod hook up right to the radio..  Outside of that it is a stock well taken care of mini-van.

This car is mechanically sound and very tight, and I would not hesitate to drive this van coast to coast.

Mazda reveals new 'Game Changers' advertising campaign

Tue, 30 Apr 2013

Looking to highlight its unique and sporty mindset, Mazda is getting ready to launch its biggest advertising campaign since "Zoom-Zoom" became its tagline in 2000. The new campaign, entitled "Game Changers," will begin in May, and rather than focusing on its sporty past - like it did with Zoom-Zoom early on - the new ads will look at recent advancements made in building its future, including Skyactiv technologies and its new diesel race program, both of which involve its excellent new Mazda6 sedan.
As a part of the ads, Mazda will showcase game changers from the sporting world, including Dick Fosbury who changed how competitors perform the high jump and Laird Hamilton, who redefined how surfers attacked big waves. It doesn't sound like Zoom-Zoom is going away, but "Game Changers" will definitely feature heavily in the Japanese automaker's marketing moving forward. A few examples of the new ad campaign are posted in our gallery, and the press release is available below.

2009-2013 Mazda6 door latch recall covers 161k cars

Mon, 30 Sep 2013

Mazda is voluntarily recalling 161,400 Mazda6 cars due to door latch mounting screws that may loosen, which could cause a door to open while the vehicle is in motion, thereby increasing the risk of accident or injury. The recall covers 2009 through 2013 Mazda6 models manufactured between February 4, 2008 and August 24, 2012.
The recall is expected to begin by October 18, 2013. Mazda will notify owners, and dealers will provide repairs free of charge. Scroll down for the official recall notice from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Mazda3, CX-5 earn IIHS Top Safety Picks

Thu, 17 Jan 2013

Mazda technologies like SkyActiv-Body and SkyActiv-Chassis, plus ultra-high-tensile steel, six airbags, "crusable" brake and accelerator pedal assembly and collapsible steering column have helped the 2013 Mazda3 and 2014 Mazda CX-5 win Top Safety Pick laurels from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). It's the second year in a row for the Mazda3.
The accolade is earned by receiving "Good" marks for frontal moderate overlap crashes, side and rear impact crashes, and tests of roof strength. Remember, the small overlap test that the IIHS commenced in August 2012 has lately tripped up some makers who have excellent safety reputations.
The Mazda3 and CX-5 join offerings like the Dodge Dart, Hyundai Elantra, Mitsubishi Outlander Sport and Subaru Forester among the 117 vehicles so far declared Top Safety Picks - which is different than the 13 named Top Safety Picks+, mind you - for this year. Have a read of the press release below for more information.
