2008 Mazda3 2.3L - 90k Miles
I’m taking a look at it this weekend. It’s got 90k on it from 2 owners, the 2nd being from 2023 until now. The Carfax is good, a bit minimal on info but shows regular oil changes and that 7 months ago, the computer module was replaced and the transmission was serviced and flushed. It looks like it’s in great shape otherwise. It has newer tires, new shocks and new motor mounts. Asking price is $6500.
My other vehicle is a getting retired from daily driver to weekend fun toy (Jeep.) I do have a kid but we have other vehicles for the family, this will just be my commuter. I work on my own vehicles for the most part, I just don’t want or need another project. For the price, do you think it’s worth it as a solid daily for the next 5-10 years? I only put on about 6-7k miles a year, short commute.
I wanted something a bit newer but the miles, condition, and price point are enticing.
What is specific to these cars should I look for?
