    Default Buying my first Mazda

    Went to a dealer with a trade in.

    They are giving me $9500 for my trade in and with a 2017 Mazda 3 GT with Premium Package. I'm getting $246.xx bi weekly payment with 60 months financing and $425 credit.
    I'm considering this or the 2017 Honda Civic. Seems like the Civic is more expensive but they do have some features that the Mazda 3 don't have like the remote engine starter and Apple Carplay.

    Considering my options any suggestions or input would be appreciated.

    What other things have been quoted with the sale to get to the total price? This info will makes all the difference if you are looking for good advice.

    Also, starters are available

    Best suggestion is to touch base with @Jeff-TheBiz

    No way of telling how good your deal is without knowing the trade details..

    As for a starter, there are currently 2 different remote starters available for the Mazda3, one is a fob based 2 way remote the other is an app based starter.

    As for CarPlay.. I am told that it will be available eventually.. and it will be retroactive down to the 14s..
    Damn you photobucket.....

    Hi I am new to the country. Came here from Europe. I had Mazda 3 Sport which I love.
    I am looking to buy Mazda 3 here again. I believe closest to that is called here Mazda 3 GT (2.3L)? Mine was 2004 and it is still like new, believe it or not... No rust apart from two spots at bottom of the back fender!

    I am intended to buy similar version Gen I, probably from 2007-2009 as older seems to be very rusted here.
    Any advice as to where to buy will be appreciated. Or not to. Well I found out now that Downsviewauto definitely not.
    Or if anybody here is selling....

    So far browsing Autotrader, there are lots of mazda 3, but many not very appealing.
    Also any advice of typical faults to look for here, apart from rust.

    Thanks Vlad.
