How did the dealer quote it?
2005 Mazda Mazda3, used · 1st generation
A fair price at 60,000 km is $5,539 to $7,412 (estimated), from 18 similar cars in Canada this month (3 already sold).
Right in line with the market. You might get a few hundred off, but there is no big overcharge here.
Only 0 2005 Mazda3s listed near 60,000 km, so this is estimated from the nearest listed mileage (100 to 150k km, 3 cars) using how 1st generation Mazda3 prices fall with mileage.
Hi, I am interested in the 2005 Mazda3 listed at $6,995. Comparable ones in Canada have been selling between $5,539 and $7,412 at this mileage, typically around $6,475. Would you take $6,475? I can come in this week.
2,911 used Mazda3s (2004 and newer) in Canada right now. Here are the 20 most recently listed, each checked against the fair range for its own year and mileage.

Before you negotiate
- Anything under $5,539 at this mileage is a good deal. Get the history report before you go.
- Stepping back one year to a 2004 saves about $1,950 for the same generation. Worth a look if mileage is similar.
- 3 of the 18 comparable cars sold in the last 30 days, so this range reflects real transactions, not just asking prices.
Confidence: low (estimated, 3 cars at the nearest mileage). Prices are per vehicle; the same car listed at several rooftops is counted once. Sold cars are kept in because a car that sold at a price is evidence about that price.
