if want to get 1.5, can consider pre-own 1.5 from sc too

its a reliable car with minor issues. if you can get a below 100k mileage is best.
as the engine can run up to 500k km real experience with no issues provided with care and maintenance.

you should really consider the High+ because a good 1.5 would cost you around RM85,000.00 to RM90,000.00 already (+RM10,000.00 if you are taking it from Anshin).

the ongoing market price for a High+ should be around RM100,000.00 ~ RM110,000.00 but considering that you are getting a bigger engine and basically a complete set of safety suit (not to mention all the other goodies), it's well worth the price.

the 1.5 doesn't even come with reverse parking sensors and has cloths seats.

thanks!

im trying to look for a below 100k price,

so might just have to wait until next year

if you are waiting for another year, i'd highly suggest you to consider one of those affordable Chinese EV cars. way more value for the money spent. buying a 7 year old Mazda3 with little to no specifications for close to RM100k is really a waste of money (not to mention the used car interest rates).

even in 2025, the specifications of the Ignite for RM175k is considered inferior/incomparable to its competitors. cannot imagine the 1.5 one in 2026

Hi guys, im looking for 2nd hand Mazda 3 Liftback Ignite edition. Any idea where is the best place to find? Thanks in advance!

through Facebook's Mazda3 group page, seen a little bit more than 3 that are on sale but they are not the IPMs (meaning no burgurdy seats and no BOSE).

any owners of M3 BM/BN who have passed 280k km mileage? mind telling any issues or parts that need to be thoroughly inspected?

Anyone using PIAA wiper?

Hi guys, would like to check the depreciation rate for a mazda 3? Rougly how much would the car depreciate after 1-2 years for a new car? thanks!

the first 2 years? i would expect to lose around 30k.

yeap, RM30k sounds about right.

I sold my CX-30 within 6 months, bought at around RM153k and sold at RM121k.

What's reason so fast?

Hi guys, would like to ask is there anyone from here experienced this problem b4? My car suddenly engine stop when I am reversing my car, then cannot start again. Later I jump start my car.

The battery is newly bought, I m not sure what happen, maybe the battery is recon or other prob?

unlikely to be a battery problem as a failing/faulty battery will not kill an already in motion engine. seems to me like the ECU cuts power to the car to avoid a catastrophic failure. my best guess has to be the gearbox, perhaps the reverse gear.

surprisingly, what you described sounds awfully like when someone mistimed the clutch pedal when changing gears in manual.

then again, how old is your car already and have you ever changed your ATF?

Hi guys, I would like to ask all mazda 3 owners. Do u all do PPF/Coating?

i only ppf the piano black pillars.. coating/ppf no..

i wash my own cars every week and just use soft99 water wax.

Hi sifus, I’m fascinated by the aesthetic of the Mazda 3 Liftback Platinum Quartz. A few questions I have in mind:

1. Does the 1.5L ver (which they stop producing) have this color option? Seems like it’s exclusive to 2.0L

2. Is it better to buy 2nd hand or new?

3. Is Mazda 3’s specs a little too underwhelming for its price range compared to other competitors esp chinese EVs like Seal? The looks are definitely stunning but are the specs able to keep up with time?

4. How’s the RV like in general for M3?

Thanks in advance sifu sekalian
