Well, the time has come for me to move on. I'm selling my first set of wings. gotta make room in the garage for a motorcycle.

1994 Mazda MX-3 RS, asking $2500 firm. Accident free to my knowledge. Car is solid. For example, since 3/2007: took a road trip to Kentucky and back with no problems, Orlando to West palm beach and back with no problems, many trips from Orlando to Clearwater and back with no problems. Currently driven about once a week on a 40 mile highway commute with no problems. avg 25/35 mpg.

PM me with offers. no paypal or checks. cash money only (this is only to weed out the dead beats). I'm in Orlando, FL.

Purchased in 5/02 for $3800 USD from private individual with 86k miles, in Clearwater, FL. They had beat on it pretty hard, but i put her back together. Read on...

HAVE ALL PAPERWORK FOR EVERYTHING ON THIS CAR FROM THE TIME I PURCHASED IT. EVEN HAVE A GAS LOG TELLING THE CAR'S LIFE STORY.

Hey, it's going to rain, like, two years ago...



I was wondering, what did you do to the headlights, as they look significantly different

see this thread

some hooligans decided that it would be fun to hurl vegatables into traffic @ 2am when they broke into a roadside produce stand. the rest is history.

Have any pics of the interior? What's it look like inside?

Have any pics of the interior? What's it look like inside?

i will post pics for you tonight, but here's some verbage:

interior plastic is perfect. no cracks. always armoralled & used a sunshade. brealy noticeable warp on front dash near base of windshield.

interior carpet is perfect. always used floor mats and kept muddy people out.

headliner has one small blemish, looks to be from a cigarette. took two years of owning the car before i saw it. i never smoked in the car, seller told me they didn't smoke in the car, car
doens't smell like it's ever been smoked in.

no funny smells inside.

front seats are good shape for their age. no tears. mild fuzzing in seat bottom area (where your butt goes, 14 year old car, remember). always used seat covers, kept them washed regularly (i'll include them in the sale if buyer wants them)

back seat has one split seam, about 4" long. easily fixed with a darning needle and thread.
fabric of back seats is practically perfect due to lack of back seat passengers.

seatbelts are clean. no blemishes. show typical wear for 14 years of use.

front seat sliders and forn seat backrest tilt both fully functional. back seats fold down
like they should, latches hold back seats in place when upright.

ractive drilled aluminum pedal covers on clutch and brake pedals. silver color.
previous owner beat the stock ones up, and theyneeded to be replaced. i have the matching gas pedal cover.

Trunk is clean. no spills or blemishes.
mild carpet fuzzing in floor from a single 12" subwoofer box being there the entire time i owned the car. trunk light works like it should.

i made a cargo cover for the trunk. fabricated from curtain rod, currogated cardboard,
black spraypaint and black shoestring. works great. i built it for the car the weeked after i bought the car.

spare tire never used. jack and tools are all clean and in fully functional condition.

instruments are all fully functional (speedo, tach, temperature gauge, gas gauge, etc)

wipers are fully functional (all intermittent settings and speeds)

climate control system and panel is fully functional. fan is fully functional (replaced with refurbed unit in 3/2007) climate control backlights stopped working in 2005. the indicator light still lights up when it's button is pressed, but the light that illuminates the symbols on the switches doesn't work. i hope that makes sense. i suspect a loose wire, as there is more than one bulb that illuminates that area, and all fuses check out.

rear defroster fully functional

sunroof is fully functional in both vent and slide modes.

dome lights work just fine when you push their respective buttons.
sometimes they don't come on when a door is opened.

Clifford Alarm does its job protecting the car. will give buyer two remotes and two keys. alarm doesn't fully unlock or lock the doors, i think the motor that the alarm controls to lock and unlock the doors is funny. passenger door lock still locks & unlocks when you manually move the driver's side lock. basically the alarm just protects the car. you still have to use the key to unlock & lock the doors, or use the door lock manually with your hand. you have to hold the handle when you close the door from the outside for the lock to stay engaged (mazda made it this way).

that's about all i can think of at the moment.
