Queen of the Road: Hi there! Below is each year with both 4D and 5D figures. I set the 2005 and 2007 mileage at 30,000 so you’ll know the maximum price you should pay. Once you find a specific Mazda3, then just let us know the exact mileage and we’ll narrow the price down for you.

Once you find a Mazda3 I that you want, check carfax and do plenty of research on the history of the vehicle. Ask for their maintenance records. You can even bring a mechanic for a brief inspection.

Follow Up Comment: Holy crap, that’s some detail you got! I really appreciate this info. I’ve done more shopping over this weekend, and dealers don’t seem to want to deal too low.
My first negotiation for 2005 Mazda3 with about 30,000 miles yielded about $14,500 out of the door, and 2008 Mazda3 with about 10,000 miles (no power windows/lock/etc) yielded about $15,500 out of the door. I guess I’ll keep on looking for better deals.
