This vehicle would make a great starting platform for someone looking to convert it for racing!
The car was purchased in 1994 by my brother (second owner) and has been in the family ever since. It is mostly stock (see below for exceptions) and has been kept in a garage or carport for most of the last 20 years. It is in very good physical condition for its age and mileage. The car has 120,654 miles on the frame. The engine has somewhere between 50K and 60K. The clutch has about 10,000 miles on it. As far as I know, the car has been in one accident in 2003; it was hit in the right front quarter. There are some minor body alignment issues on the right front corner with the bumper, hood, and headlight, but nothing excessive. There is also a small dent over the passenger door where it was hit by a falling tree branch. There is some paint oxidation on the roof and rear bumper that can probably be polished out. The hood and front bumper are in better shape because they were repainted after the accident. There are minor paint dings in a few places, the largest of which is on the driver's door where someone opened a car door into it. All of these issues should be visible from the photos. The interior of the car is in very good shape. There is some normal wear in the leather of the driver's seat as would be expected from the car's age. The carpet is clean and has been protected by floor mats for the life of the car. The car is equipped with the Bose Acoustic Wave sound system that was created especially for this model car. The subwoofer system in the rear needs an amplifier rebuild. See the photos for details on interior condition. About a year ago, the car was taken to our local Mazda dealer because it would not accelerate. By the time it had been moved a couple of times in the parking lot where it broke down and then put on a tow truck, it had flooded out. The dealer replaced the plugs, wires, and coils to get it started again. At that point, they started trying to troubleshoot the acceleration problem. They replaced the fuel pump with an aftermarket unit and apparently broke the fuel quantity sending unit in the process. The fuel gauge does not currently work, although the low fuel light still comes on at the proper time. The next thing the dealer tried was replacing the catalytic converters, which were supposedly clogged. They couldn't find suitable replacements, so they installed a performance steel downpipe. So the car is now straight-piped from the turbo outlet to the muffler. They spent a couple of months messing with it and could never get it to work. We sent it to a Mazda specialist in Atlanta who replaced the throttle position sensor and then the secondary fuel injectors and finally got the car running again. Less than two thousand miles later, the plastic coolant air separator tank split, causing the car to overheat and shut down just down the street from our driveway. We were able to restart the car after it cooled and move it into the driveway, where we replaced the air separator tank with an aluminum one and replaced the coolant. However, we have not been able to start the car since. It is badly flooded again and will drip oily fuel out the exhaust. We tried removing the plugs and cleaning them, draining the combustion chambers, and reassembling it, but no luck. The car will fire and sputter a little bit, but won't catch and start. Fixing it may be as simple as new plugs, or it may take some more drastic measures. I honestly don't know. We had to replace the car with something more reliable for my son to drive to school, so we are selling the car as-is. This car would be a great project purchase for someone more mechanically inclined than I am who can get it started, tuned up, and maybe converted for racing. It is lightning fast and a lot of fun to drive. In addition to the repairs and modifications above, most of the vacuum lines and check valves have been recently replaced and it has a new alternator and serpentine belt. Buyer will be responsible for taking delivery of the car or having it shipped to your location. It will require transport that can account for the fact that it cannot be started. Thanks for looking! I would love to see this car go to someone who will fix it up and really enjoy it to its full potential. My brother loved driving it, my son loved driving it, and I'm sure you will too! |

Mazda recalls 2016-2018 Mazda3s for faulty windshield wipers
Thu, May 2 2019As the waves of rain showers continue to roll across the United States, Mazda has issued a recall related to a car's most important springtime feature: windshield wipers. Due to a faulty relay, the wipers on some 2016-2018 Mazda Mazda3s might stop functioning. The recall potentially affects 187,798 cars. According to NHTSA recall No. 19V272000, some 2016-2018 Mazda3s might have a malfunctioning windshield wiper relay within the front body control module that causes the wipers to become inoperable. As a resolution, Mazda will replace the old modules with new ones that have an "improved wiper relay design." This can be done at Mazda dealerships for free. This is not the first time the 2016 Mazda3 has been in the news for a recall. Although previous faults have been on smaller scales, the model previously had issues with a fuel shutoff valve causing a fuel leak, a deformed fuel tank causing a fuel leak, an improper weld on the fuel tank recirculation pipe causing a leak, and corroded parking brake actuators. Mazda has set June 3, 2019, as the expected recall start date, and owners may call Mazda customer service at 1-800-222-5500 to check on the status. The Mazda recall reference number is 3219D.

Toyota delays Mexico plant as it plans U.S. plant with Mazda
Thu, Aug 10 2017TOKYO — Toyota will push back the start of operations at its scheduled new plant in Mexico, to the first half of 2020 from the initial plan of 2019, the company said on Thursday. Japan's top automaker had initially planned to start building the Corolla sedan at the $1 billion Guanajuato plant but said last week it would switch production to a new U.S. factory to be built with Mazda. Toyota said the delay was necessary to adjust its supply chain in Mexico to produce the Tacoma pickup instead of the Corolla compact car. That factory could also build sport utility vehicles, a Toyota spokesman in Mexico said last week. "With the production model change to the Tacoma pickup, the start of production will consequently be in the first half of 2020," a Toyota spokeswoman said. "However, we will make our utmost effort to advance the timing in order to minimize the impact to suppliers and the local community." Until the scheduled start of the joint venture plant with Mazda in 2021, Toyota will supply the Corollas that were initially slated to be built in Mexico from its factories in Mississippi and Japan, the company said.Related: Mazda-Toyota partnership has us dreaming of a rotary hybrid Reporting by Makiko YamazakiRelated Video:
