I bought this with branded title, just rear bumper knocked off, no damage and I had it jacked up and looked everywhere. No damage & running & drives perfect. Even did Carfax report and it had regular maintenance done, but at dealership or last service done by local shop. I paid just over 5.5k.
I did a lot of research on the net and saw the mazda 3 with the skyactiv engine was one of the most long running vehicles, right behind Toyota and Honda.
I'll be researching the posts on here for you guy's experiences.
Thanks, Scott Pickel
