Looking to buy a MX-3 heres what it has and shizznit.<p>1995, V6, auto trans., ps, ABS, A/C, all power options, incl. p.moonroof & alloy wheels (stock for year) Black paint still looks new.<p>How much do you think a 95 is worth. Its being sold for 6990 from a dealership so add taxes bout 8000 or so. Good or Bad?

no go, dont buy it. In autotrader ive seen perfectly good mx-3's for 3000 dollars with v6 and a standard tranny. Plus your going to regret the auto tranny sooner or later.

First of all mazda auto trannys have a bad wrap. They usually go out at about 120k miles, my friends mx6 tranny just went out at 110k miles, and its about 4 grand to fix a tranny. Standard trannys are faster more fun less money to repair and dont go out nearly as fast.

i would say that is a good deal if you really want the 4cyl engine. i would look around for a GS (v6).
