2009 Mazda3 Sedan, Sport & Speed3 Changes

[Jeff-TheBiz]

Okay, so it looks as though there will be an 2009 after all.

Changes on the Mazda3 Sedan:

Models with keyless entry now equipped with trunk release button on key fob.

Changes on the Mazda3 Sport:

There are no key equipment changes for the 2009 model year Mazda3 Sport

Changes on the Mazdaspeed3:

There are no key equipment changes for the 2009 model year Mazdaspeed3

In fact even all the colours are the same.

That is all... Carry on... Nothing to see here... Why are you still reading???

Go.

2009's are the same.

2010's are the new model.

Interesting... I wonder how hard it'd be to put the OEM trunk release stuff on my 07...

It is Golden Sand, and first time available on the 3 also it it only available on a Sedan GT

sooo 2008.5 is technically 2009??

Sorta, I expect that it will be a limited run until the 2010 is produced and released.

Like anything else.... nothing is impossible, it may be expensive, but it isn't impossible.

No specs or pricing yet.

You're asking the wrong guy!

When my updated parts CD arrives I'll see if there are any changes in the remote/trunk release assemblies.

Oh, must have got confused...lol

I'm thinking about buying a 2008.5 Mazda 3. However, i'm wondering if it is worth the wait until 2010 to purchase the new models?

it's 12-16 months away until the 2010's.

Something tells me the finance rates won't be 0% on the new model like they are now

[visco9]

yeah who knows what the price will be for the '10 with new design and features, plus no chance on the 0% financing. also, one must assume there will be some bugs with a new production line.

[MikeyGT]

YES. Now i won't feel as bad that i got my 07 GT

[mazdas3sporte]

iam 100% sure 0 % financeing wont be the same, maybe in the 3-4 percent maybe much higher, before i was looking at the mazda 3 i was going to finance a 08 Civic Si, even after 2 years of the new model coming out the car still has the Tranny problem , the 3rd gear problem with this car was huge and theres threads and posts all over the internet about it, i would not look into buying the car its first couple years out.

The same problem occurred with more car models dating back to 2003. I really don't think it had anything to do with quirks of a first year model, but rather Honda failing to acknowledge there was an issue. They have a TSB released finally. http://www.8thcivic.com/forums/mecha...-3rd-gear.html

Won't be 0% for sure, but since the car isn't coming out soon, people have some time to save a few grand for a downpayment
