2007 Mazda Speed3 - $7,900 (Bainbridge Island)

Meticulously cared for 2007 Mazda Speed3, 3rd owner. The second owner had the car for less than a year; the 1st owner purchased it new from University Mazda. I spent 2 years searching for a stock Speed3 in excellent condition before buying this one in 2020. This is a very fun car in great shape that I hate to see go. Clean title Interior: 9/10 - all trim and buttons look as good as new. The driver's seat has about 15k miles on it, and it still feels new. Exterior: Typical condition for a car of this age. It has been stored out of the sun for most of its life, the paint is not sun faded, and the bumpers match the rest of the car. (on some of these cars the plastic painted parts fade differently than the rest of the car). The car has been detailed after these photos were taken. There are paint chips on the hood and a few on the roof. Recent maintenance and upgrades: - VVT job completed in January using all Mazda OEM parts: - Timing chain, guides, new hardware, VVT, exhaust sprocket, crank sprockets, oil pump sprocket and chain. - Also installed new coils and plugs. - Turbo was inspected at the same time - no play and in great shape. Modifications (focused on reliability): - All engine/transmission mounts replaced with cp-e ones (version 2 rear motor mount) - Bilstein B16 coliovers, adjustable height and compression/rebound - installed last year - Damond Motorsports oil catch can and PCV Plate with new Mazda PCV valve (installed January) - CorkSport HPFP internals - Fidanza lightweight single mass flywheel with new Mazda clutch and throwout bearing @ 125k miles - Hitch receiver - only used for a bike rack Second set of wheels with Yokohama Advan A052 tires. These are one of the stickiest street-legal tires, which also grip exceptionally well in the rain. This car hasn't been tracked; it has been to a few autox events and performs really well. For the right price, I can include a few new parts not yet installed: - Centric brake rotors - EBC pads - Stainless steel brake line kit - Damon Motorsports brake caliper bushings - Damon Motorsports RMM with both options for stiffness - Corksport LED foglights. Mileage will increase as the vehicle is driven. Cash in hand for test drives.
