MP3 for sale in Toronto area

[Pants McGregor]

Hi,

New guy here looking to buy an MP3. I have my eye on a 2001 with 50,000km on it. They are asking $23,900 for it and I wondered what people thought of that, and whether there was something I should look for on it (problem area).

I read some notes about a 'clunk' which I heard while driving it, but I thought it was just the sub moving around.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Nope the clunk is a the bushings in the rear which Mazda Canada as far as i know has no problem fixing, it was fixed by my dealer under warranty

Is this car at a dealer your looking at, if it is I knew the last owner and know more if you want to know about the car

PS. Im in toronto too if u didnt already figure it out

kurtburmester@hotmail.com if you need anything else, i dont mind helping out another looking at an MP3, all of us here know theyre better than the MSP's anyways

Considering the car was $23,700 new...the price seems a bit steep.

Yes they paid taxes, pdi etc and it was out the door for about $30 K

With 50K KM's on it the warranty is over half gone already.

23900$CAN?!!!!! They are crazy!
Come to Monreal, there are few for sale around 20000$ with way lower KMs.

23900$ is a rip off deal!!!

Don't buy Newf's car; it has some kind of a clunk problem or something. j/k
Seriously, I had the opportunity to buy an MP3 with 40000 kms on the clock for $17000, so that price seems way too high.

 

[Pants McGregor]

Well, the deed is done. I worked the price a bit more and bought it tonight. I think I got a pretty good deal on the trade-in, and when you have made your mind up on a car it can be hard to stop yourself

By Friday I should have it. Just in time for the long weekend.

Thanks for everyone's input, although as usual I think I already had my mind made up and just needed convincing.

Now to the mods.......

How much u paid?
What car u traded for the MP3?

 

[rowan]

Pants McGregor: Your experience sounds kinda familiar. Like when I swapped my Protege5 for the MP3.

 

[Pants McGregor]

Enough talk about money.....8 hours until I pick up my MP3.

Any last minute thoughts on what parts I should rip out of my 96 Jetta before I trade it in ?

I thought my friend taking the battery cover was going a bit far but maybe I missed something.

Dang, you should come and visit this board earlier. I would sell you mine with the same price @ 33000KM. With DaveB gauges Ring for Bonus...

Ask if any of your buddy are interesting my MP3!

 

[Newf]

for that kind of money I would have drove mine to TO for you

Heck for 22,000 i would have drove it to you !

Hope you gotta better deal afterwards.

i didnt realize they were that high in canada...i spent $20400 for my car drive-off.

 

[Newf]

yes, but we are talking Canadian funds.
