*Please read the entire ad before contacting me. I will not respond to you if you simply ask if it is available.*

2008.5 Mazdaspeed3 GT True Red on Alcantara with 87K miles. I love this car and it has never let me down – I just drove it from Seattle to Chicago and it performed beautifully. Bought it from the previous owner 2.5 years ago and have put about 25K miles on it since then. I have meticulous records dating back the entire life of the car and even have the original dealer window sticker. Always bone-stock, never driven hard and in perfect mechanical shape with zero rust. Garage-kept for most of its life - the True Red paint is still in amazing shape with some minor rock chipping in the front. Only blemish is a slight crease on the front of the hood from another car in a parking lot. Alcantara interior is in great shape with some very minor wear on the front seats.

Asking $9,800 given the mechanical shape and rarity of a stock example with low miles. This is a west coast car and has absolutely zero rust anywhere. If you’re looking at MS3s you probably already know these are going up in value, especially given the fact Mazda recently officially confirmed there will never be another Mazdaspeed model. Text or email to set up a viewing in the Chicago area (please bring a mask). I just had the car professionally detailed and sanitized. Serious inquiries only, please. If you want to test drive I will need to see ID and proof of funds to demonstrate your interest. Thanks for looking and have a great day!

- Passed a recent full inspection with the only note being that the front struts are worn. I have a brand new Eibach/Koni four corner strut/spring kit + mounts that I could include at this asking price ($700 value)
- The original owner had both of the VVT actuator and turbo vent kit recalls performed under warranty by the dealer, so you don’t need to worry about these common issues down the road
- New Hankook tires installed 3K miles ago
- New front end links
- Trans fluid changed around 5K miles ago with Red Line
- OEM Mazda engine air filter around the same time
- Oil changed every 4K miles with full synthetic and doesn’t burn a drop between changes
- Mechanically in fantastic shape. No weird noises, smells, pops or grinds of any kind. Never had a single check engine light
- No accidents, clean Carfax on hand. Clean title held by my credit union.

GT model features:
- Auto leveling HID headlights
- LED tail lights
- Rain sensing wipers
- Bose system with sub
- Leather and Alcantara interior
