So i've been looking for a new car, and have decided to trade in my mazda 3, and get an RX-8. it will be a new 2010, silver metallic. I had to stick with Mazda, like them tooo much.

the deal is 3.9% APR over 60 months, they offered me 14,500 for my car. Starting at around 28,500, so my payments shouldnt be too bad.

 

What year was your 3 and how many miles were on it? I have a 3 that's not even a year old yet, I'm just thinking down the road how the value might hold up. I'm thinking there's a point where it's optimal to use the car as tradein as you have.

 

my mazda 3 is a 2008 and it has around 15,500 miles on it. Aside what from people say, I think the 3 has a decent trade-in value, depending what model you have. I have the s touring.

 

Ahh, yeah I have the 2010 s Sport, however I won't have the car paid off until 5 years of ownership, unless I make larger payments at some point.
