Replying to: surhar17 (Dec 14, 2006 5:47 pm) If you are moving to LA, you may need to have a CA spec car and therefore need to purchase it in CA (or the New England States that use CA standards).   Check out the CARB site to verify Replies to this message: surhar17 (Dec 15, 2006 6:32 pm)

Replying to: stuartf (Dec 15, 2006 3:34 pm) hey thanks. i talked to the service dept at a mazda dealership in ohio, and they said the 2007's are all 50-state emissions certified so nothing would need to be changed bringing it into cali.
#2925 of 4322 What Model? Mazda3 by suv_shoppin Dec 15, 2006 (8:12 pm)
Looking at possibly getting a mazda3 and don't know the difference between the models yet. I would like a sunroof and a good stero and power windows/locks, etc. I also want black exterior and a spoiler.   What model should I be looking for and approximately how much $? Paying cash if that matters.   Live in the tampa bay area.   Thanks. Replies to this message: claudius753 (Dec 16, 2006 4:12 pm)
#2926 of 4322 Galaxy Grey Hatchback by claudius753 Dec 16, 2006 (3:58 pm)
I am purchasing a Galaxy Grey hatch from Fitzgerald Auto Mall in Frederick MD.   The model I am getting is the Touring with 5AT and 6 CD / moonroof package. I was quoted an out the door price of $20,928.   The dealer is finding the car I want and I should be purchasing next week. So far the process has been very easy with no pressure and quick replies to all questions.

Replying to: suv_shoppin (Dec 15, 2006 8:12 pm) There are 2 types of Mazda 3, the i and the s.   The i models come with a 150 hp, 135 lb-ft 2.0 liter I4 with either a 5 speed manual or 4 speed automatic, and is only available in the sedan configuration.   The s models come with a 156 hp, 150 lb-ft 2.3 liter I4 with either a 5 speed manual or 5 speed automatic, and is available in both sedan and 5 door hatchback configurations.   There are then 3 'grades' of the Mazda 3. Sport, Touring, and Grand Touring. The 3i comes in Sport or Touring. The 3s comes in Sport, Touring and Grand Touring.   If you want the i model, you would have to get the Touring to get the power windows/locks, keyless entry, etc. You would also have to add the 6 CD / moonroof package and the rear wing spoiler. Edmunds' TMV is around $18,700   You could also get an s model, with a Sport model, and also add the 6 CD / moonroof and rear wing spoiler. Edmunds' TMV is around $19,700.   Both prices assume 4 door model with the automatic transmission.   Basically, for around $1,000 you get the more powerful engines plus maybe a few other differences.
#2928 of 4322 Galaxy Grey 5-door in New Jersey by jc22 Jan 03, 2007 (8:58 pm)
Got an online quote from Maxon Mazda in Union, New Jersey for a S-Touring Galaxy Grey Mica with grey interior and no options. Went down and spent two hours with B.D. and left with the car for $19,723 (New Jersey residents must pay for a 4-year car registration fee). Wanted to pay $200 less, but could not find a grey interior any where else. Experience was quick and some-what painless. Just stand firm on paying for the VIN etching.   Hope this helps.   JC
#2929 of 4322 purchasing '05 hatch/concerns by cartera Jan 04, 2007 (7:53 am)
Replying to: KarenS (Dec 30, 2003 7:28 am) Got a price of $15k for an '05 hatch, standard equipment but optional airbags added and 19k miles. When I went to test drive, it wouldn't start - battery needed a jump. Salesman says this just happens sometimes when they sit - I have never had it happen. It had only been at the dealer since 12/12. Had a terrible grinding in the back when I drove off and I am aware of the problem with the rear brakes so I assume that can be fixed. Carfax says it was a commercial lease, that was sold at auction and it sat at another dealer from Aug to Dec and then came to this dealer. Car is priced below a similar model with no extra airbags and more miles - I see issues but is there any reason to think I can't get these problems solved since I am aware of the TSBs and won't buy it until it checks out? It is certified so I get the rest of the 50k bumper to bumper warranty, dealer adds another 12k and then I get the remainder of a 100K limited warranty.
