Feeler: 2005 Mazda 3 hatchback

[Kevin M]

Most of you guys are familiar with my wife's Mazda, at least if you came out to autocross and got PAX spanked by me in it last year. We're looking to trade it for a decent Subaru so we have 2 AWD cars in the house. If Mazda had made these in AWD, I'd want to keep this for however long I can hold it together with yarn and duct tape, because it's fantastic when there's no ice or deep snow on the ground.

73k miles give or take a tank of gas, 100% stock. It's black, 5 speed with moonroof, but no ABS or traction control. A good offer will get the winter wheels and tires thrown in, otherwise it only comes with the stock wheels with fairly fresh all seasons on them. ~80% tread left, if not more. It also has a 100k mile warranty we got with it when we bought it 2 years ago- I am pretty sure it's transferable but I need to look at the paperwork to make sure.

KBB private party excellent condition is just over $9,000 but we're considering reasonable offers. The main condition on the sale is that we can find a good condition Subaru wagon to replace it.a
