You're bidding on a lightly driven 2002 Mazda Protege 5 with Mica Black paint and a black leather interior.

Yes, you read that correctly, this car only has 31,665 miles.

I bought this car in 2002 and my work schedule resulted in the car being mostly driven only on weekends.

This car comes with pretty much all the possible options: leather seats, powered moonroof, 4-speed auto "sport-mode" transmission, ABS and side airbags. It also comes with a Mazda original car cover and the rims have wheel locks.

The engine runs smoothly and the ride is tight. It's a fun car to drive and gets good gas mileage. I'm sad to let it go but at this point it costs me more to park it in the city for a year than it does to sell it.

The paint is in good shape and the car has always had a solid waxing.

The interior is in excellent condition. All carpets and leather seats are in really great shape. The passenger and rear seat floor mats are pristine. I just didn't drive it enough to wear out the passenger or back seats.

The trunk has always been protected by a Mazda trunk liner and is pristine.

I installed a Pioneer AVIC-D3 Navigation System in the car along with a Pioneer Bluetooth module. The maps come on two DVDs and are the latest available. It is an awesome system and integrates tightly with Apple devices (via a 30-pin cable) or any other device via Bluetooth. I also installed a high quality Nokia MP-2 external microphone on the driver-side door pillar. Hands-free conversations work really well with this mic. The system also supports DVD video playback.

The car received four new tires, spark plugs, transmission fluid, brake fluid and an A/C recharge at ~26,700 before a cross-country drive. The tires are in great shape and have plenty of tread. The A/C blows cold. I just replaced the front windshield wipers this week.

Parts I've replaced over the years: an alternator, a couple batteries, tires, rotors, pads, header pipe and an EGR valve. All paperwork has been kept. Oil has been changed religiously and by calendar and not by mileage.

I uninstalled the roof rack a couple years ago. All parts were kept and it can be easily reattached.

I've included plenty of pics. The car was parked on the street in its early years and received its obligatory bumper scratches from parallel parking. Since then the car has been garaged in Seattle for the last few years. Therefore the only wear and tear to be aware of is the bumpers being scratched up from typical east coast parallel parking. There are also some fine scratches on the lip of the front hood, above the left wheel well and on the gas door. There are two tiny dents on the left side as well. On the driver side door pillar there is some small bubbling and the foam piping is worn. The last five pics show these blemishes.

I hope this car finds a good home!

Good luck bidding.

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

Mazda6 diesel engine delayed over low performance, still coming

Mon, Dec 1 2014

Oh Mazda... we had many hopes for the promised diesel four-cylinder in the Mazda6, but those have remained largely unfulfilled, as the oil-burning powerplant has failed to appear on dealer lots following its 2012 LA Auto Show announcement. Despite engineering issues that forced the company to announce that the program was delayed back in September 2013, Mazda remains adamant that the 2.2-liter Skyactiv-D is still coming to our shores. "We're still very much committed to diesel," Mazda's North American CEO, Jim O'Sullivan, told Automotive News. "We are still working on getting the performance aspects up to where we want them, and we do have a plan – an engineering road map Â– to get it done." According to AN, Mazda's initial plan with the 2.2-liter diesel was to build an engine so clean it could get by without an aftertreatment system, which generally accounts for the price premium of diesel engines versus their gas counterparts. The new system has come with performance issues, though, necessitating the delays. "If [we were] a commodity brand and didn't care about that, it would be on the market right now," O'Sullivan told AN. "But I know the people were expecting something from us, expecting certain drive characteristics and performance, and I didn't want to disappoint them." While O'Sullivan's defense of the diesel Mazda is admirable, the exec stops short of giving us an indication of when the new engine will finally arrive.
