What you’re going to love:

You want a car that gets the job done? Something hassle free? Something that bridges the proverbial gap between the 1990s and the 2020s? Well, look no further.

The 2012 Mazda 3.

The 2012 Mazda 3 is the shit. Need something that will get you from California to New York in a week? 2012 Mazda 3. Something that can take a hit from your permit-holding teen? 2012 Mazda 3. A vehicle to replace the 1990 Toyota Tacoma in all the current guerrilla armies? 2012 Mazda 3.

Interesting facts:

• This car’s exterior color is gray, but its interior color is grey.
• In the owner’s manual, oil is listed as “optional.”
• If you get the engine hot enough and have a cast iron skillet, you could proooooobably grill with it
• It’s never once been pulled over because every officer knows that no felon would buy something with such a poignant combination of pizzaz and utilitarian sex appeal
• Jay Leno probably owned one
• Jeremy Clarkson once famously said of the 2012 Mazda 3, “It's like a golden retriever—if that golden retriever had a penchant for Anarchy and never needed shots.”

Let me tell you about the features:

Touch screen: No

Unnecessary software updates: No

Sunroof: No

Radio: Tuned to All American Rejects and AC/DC

Backup camera: No, but you have a window and a neck that works

This car will outlive you, it will outlive your children.

**The bad: **

It’s got a scraped bottom panel and a missing hubcap on the passenger side due to a particularly stealthy piece of concrete on 820 N in Provo. Doesn’t impact the frame or useability. Does add sex appeal.

You’re gonna love it.

In all seriousness:

Oil changes have all been done on time, fluids replaced, all that jazz. Selling it because we’re moving out of state for grad school and I’m not about to pay more in parking than insurance costs on this thing just to have it sit 95% of the time as I’m in class.

Clean title in hand.

Price is OBO.
