Maroon5 5th Gear July 4, 2011 Share July 4, 2011 one thing for sure...i have not seen a single SK mazda on the roads! ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timex1441 1st Gear July 4, 2011 Share July 4, 2011 (edited) mazda 3 using a 1.6 engine is too underpowered....if u check out the usa online auto ads, i think mazda 3 default engine is 2.0L, but a lot of ppl go for the 2.3L. If one can afford to buy a new car in these times, i think this is a good deal, like some forumer said, get upgraded power n higher paper value due to COE (Cat B vs Cat A).

Notsogoodman 4th Gear July 4, 2011 Share July 4, 2011 It is true. If you want a 2L car and it should be Mazda only, then Mazda 6 is way better. Mazda 3 better suits with 1.6L Mazda 3 with the 1.6 n 4-speed auto is underpowered.... the 2.0 with 5-speeder is smoother.... like someone who mentioned, the 2.0 is a common spec in many countries Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberet Neutral Newbie July 5, 2011 Share July 5, 2011 the 2.0L will be a good match with the Mz3 heavy body. FC might even be better than 1.6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zze121 3rd Gear July 5, 2011 Share July 5, 2011 Just 3 weeks ago received a SMS that they offer a few used unit of 2.0 ranging from 1-7mths selling at 90~95k. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romenade Neutral Newbie July 5, 2011 Share July 5, 2011 2.0L does it also mean that the COE going to be higher too? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majordan 2nd Gear July 5, 2011 Author Share July 5, 2011 (edited) so the catch is old stock and red color only ? chey btw Mazda3 2.0 is a damn good drive :) Edited July 5, 2011 by Majordan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
13177 Hypersonic July 5, 2011 Share July 5, 2011 I think HONDA is also selling 09 models right? they don't seem to offer much discount though. Honda is "premium" brand and they cannot "downgrade" the image of their car! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonTan 2nd Gear July 6, 2011 Share July 6, 2011 Seems like some slow moving jAp dealers are getting innovatively desperate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karu 6th Gear July 6, 2011 Share July 6, 2011 Maz 3 2.0 has a very spirited drive. Nice. How much? The Japs are feeling the heat due to the higher coe & agressive contis & koreans... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tohto Hypersonic July 6, 2011 Share July 6, 2011 2.0L will be a much better drive. If I want to buy Madza 3, I will sure go for it. Madza is acutally build for 2.0L. FC different between 2.0L and 1.6L should not be much different since it won't be under power. Insurance different will not be signifcant also. Only in singapore people like to buy big car with small engine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkblue 1st Gear July 6, 2011 Share July 6, 2011 My SE also told me about this. The 2.0L cars are made in 2009. Also, 2.0L is not as fast selling as 1.6L so they clearing old stock. Till today, some P.I cars MY2009 / 2010, selling to customers @ normal prices. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
13177 Hypersonic July 7, 2011 Share July 7, 2011 Till today, some P.I cars MY2009 / 2010, selling to customers @ normal prices. YOM2010 still not so bad. But YOM2009 or even 2008 a bit too "old" lo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ets888 Neutral Newbie July 14, 2011 Share July 14, 2011 i think if most customers dont opt for the 2l free upgrade, we'll be seeing sale and big discounts for that 2L mazda Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ER-3682 Twincharged July 14, 2011 Share July 14, 2011 i think if most customers dont opt for the 2l free upgrade, we'll be seeing sale and big discounts for that 2L mazda Because 3-4 years down the road,difficult to sell off,due to higher road tax & insurance.

Itsec 2nd Gear July 15, 2011 Share July 15, 2011 Because 3-4 years down the road,difficult to sell off,due to higher road tax & insurance. road tax.. i agree.. insurance got diff for Mz3 (1.6) and Mz3 (2.0)?? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
