| Any info on this used mazda 3?
Long shot but I was wondering if the previous owner of this car or someone who knows the previous owner comes on here. Any red flags on its history? Used 2006 Mazda Mazda3 GT for Sale in Burnaby, BC - Price | Morrey Nissan of Burnaby
edit: here are pics

i thought his old car was a manual 5speed..
but if i recall correctly, he traded in his automatic mazda3 for a manual one, so this might've been his previous previous car.
i guess we have to wait for him to chime in.

Pretty sure the black 3 before his 06 5spd GT was a GS 4spd auto or sth.

looks like it might belong to an old friend of mine, his name is Charlie. I believe his sold it and got a new car. Exactly how he did cosmetic mods, Axela badge, removed front badge. He babied his car and was always in garage.

The car isn't in really good shape any more. Looks like driver scraped the passenger side against a pole or something? Front bumper coming off, paint coming off the door and rust starting, paint coming off on the rear fender and its starting to rust, side skirts loose.

Its because they hit something and it wasn't fixed before it was traded in. If someone can claim that through ICBC it would be all good.

Did you drive it?
I haven't driven it yet but I'm told the brakes are shot and the interior is in bad shape?

Oh yeah somehow the tires spin way too much. Might be too low? Pulling out a drive way the tires spin already. And the rear tires are mismatched too. Posted via RS Mobile | |
