Down fall: Car has salvage title due to it being in a hail storm before I purchased it. I replaced the hood, the trunk has one spot about the size of a quarter from the hail, and the roof is not that bad (especially with the rack on top no one ever notices unless I point it out

Price: $6800 OBO ....if you don't like the price that is fine, move along. I have no need to sell it I have just been playing with the idea.

I also have another set of wheels with bridgestone blizzaks ready to go for winter I will throw in for the right price.

Thanks man, Spread the word! haha. Doesn't seem to be getting as much interest as I had hoped, but it is going into the winter/ holiday season when people are deff. not worried about spending money on modded cars. I reallt just have stock parts laying around (intercooler, piping ect)
 
I daily drive this car to work every day from Toledo, OH to Livonia MI with no problems

I usually pass you daily on I-75, I'm heading north when you're heading south! Work in Toledo and live in Trenton MI. Free Bump for a nice looking ride!
 
Hey josh,

if selling it like this does not work out for you, you can try offering it to www.mazdainkoopspecialist.nl . Sold my previous mazda there and must say i got a good price out of it!
maybe something to keep in the back of your head?

Good luck on selling your mazda!

Greetings, matt
 
I'd have to check the title for the name of the guy I bought it off of, but I got it from Columbus.

Ill try that site! Thanks for the advice!

Reason why I asked I'd bc both our msps got hit with hail that day and he had a titanium
 
Ahh gotcha, the damage to this one I don't feel like was to bad after I replaced the hood, but I think the rebuilt title it killing my resale.

First post and already spamming? Apologies if you are a legit member, but please be aware that we don't take kindly to spamming.
 
I saw you the other day for the first time on Reynolds Rd. Looks and sounds great from what I saw at the gas station.
 
Thanks, yeah I love the exhuast. I didn't know how it was going to sound with the 3" all the way, but it's actually pretty deep and has an awesome tone a WOT, nothing overpowering and crazy loud.
 
A salvaged title will scare off a lot of buyers especially when priced the same as a non salvaged mps. I got mine salvaged for 8k a while back but the car only had 18k miles on it. if I had to money I would buy it as a daily and keep mine just for autoX racing. GLWS. Thought you wasn't in a hurry to sell it?
 
I am starting to get antsy...I want to buy an SUV to haul some stuff and it would be nice to have before winter. And I am trying to bank on the fact that pretty much every mod that can be done, without forging it, has been done. Forged internals a gt28, and wrx injectors would make it pretty quick. Already has the rest of the supporting mods including SSAFC to tune with (unless you plan on going over 14 psi)

Since you are from the Toledo are and know anyone who might be interested, send them my way!
