 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.

First 2014 Mazda3 ad appears

Sat, 29 Jun 2013

If we judge by your comments on our recent announcement post about the new Mazad3, you Autoblog readers approve, pretty wholeheartedly, about the redesign efforts happening over at Mazda. Pressed for an opinion, we'd be forced to admit that we find the new 3 quite fetching our own selves.
To add fuel to the fast-burning fire then, Mazda has gone ahead and dropped a 15-second pseudo commercial on YouTube, showing a very rendered Mazda3 in a very rendered driving environment. The short spot is really just slightly more dynamic than the images of the car, but there is a spot of mystery to it, as well.
Right at the start of the video, an interior shot of the car shows a transparent display screen of some kind, rising from the top of the 3's dash. An interesting choice, considering Mazda has bestowed an actual center-mounted display in on the hatchback's dash-top - albeit one that doesn't look like a clear piece of glass. Take a look below, and while you're there, check out a just-released official video of the Mazda3's reveal in New York.

Feds investigating 2010-11 Mazda CX-9 CUVs over braking issues

Mon, 17 Feb 2014

The 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.

Mazda6 GX Grand-Am racer goes where no diesel sedan has gone before

Sat, 26 Jan 2013

There has never been a four-door diesel sedan in the Grand-Am series, until now: The blunt, bewinged grille of the Mazda6 GX has blown right through that wall. It's said that racing improves the breed, but usually the breed has gone on sale when the racing begins. One of the unusual aspects of the Mazda6 GX, on the other hand, is that while the diesel won't go on sale to the public until later this year, it will already have tasted racing blood by the end of the day. That kind of reversal is more likely found with super coupes like the Lexus LFA and Honda NSX.
Mazda has taken class wins at Daytona's 24-hour race a whopping 23 times since 1975, most recently in 2010 with the RX-8 in the GT class. This year the Hiroshima company decided to show off its SkyActiv technology, then turned things up to eleven by opting for its SkyActiv-D instead of the more conventional SkyActiv-G gas engine to run in the new GX class. It will be joined by competitors like the Lotus Evora and Porsche Cayman in the class, nevertheless, at 2.4 liters, it's the smallest engine on the grid.
Time has not been a friend, either - Mazda said that the first five SkyActiv-D engines off the production line went to Speed Source in Coral Springs, Florida, the company that preps Mazda's race vehicles. Still, race driver Jonathan Baumarito on the #70 car said that although the engine's been on the dyno since February of last year, it's only been in the car for about a month and there have been only a couple of test days.
