- 2001 Mazda MP3
This is my third Mazda. First was a 2002 LX, then and 08 MS3, now 2001 MP3. It has a couple issue that need addressing, but the motor and transmission seem stout.
where in VA, and what color. maybe I'll come buy a second oneYou could have just come bought mine for 3200...
Yellow and close to Charlottesville.
It needs a lot of work which is why I was planing on trading it in to a dealership for a Mazda 3
I wish I had never sold it.. I need something cheap and this one popped up right at my price point on CL...WTF i never expected to see you back in protege land after you sold your white one to kev
What does it need? Any rust? how many miles? I've always considered another 3rd gen protege in decent shape for her, as they are very easy to work on relative to her disaster of a jetta (just changing an oil pan required a handful of SSt's and a total of like 20 little rusted allen screws...)...honestly her jetta is in better overall shape than my P5 (shouldn't have said its 'dying', its just a hassle usually), and worth a lot more (leather, heated seats, only around 100k miles)...its just so a pain in the ass to do any work on...plastic over everything, ridiculous design for what should be routine maintenance, etc...thats the only reason we dislike it.
but this is tricky...as how would i explain it to her when i started pulling shat out of the Mp3 to put on my p5? Not trying to lead you on or anything, its most likely we'll buy something newer that we won't need to worry about as much as mine.
