Mazda 3s are FANTASTIC cars. Especially the 2010-2013 model they are beautiful and have awesome reliability ratings. I’ve seen many for sale with over 270k miles running and driving fine. 2004-2009 are amazing as well but the looks of 2010-2013 are awesome
The 2012/2013 also have the SkyActiv engine, and they’re more powerful than the older ones while also getting better MPGs!
They rust like hell tho 🤣
my 2010 mazda 3 has 344k on original engine undercoated every year so theres like no rust
@@user-dx8qc9hp7n I’ll buy it
I love them. They are more reliable than many other Japanese cars outside of Toyota. The newer ones with the Skyactiv engines use Toyota's transmission.
A hail-damaged car would make for a perfect winter vehicle up north!
The Check Engine light on the Subaru is probably because it has a catless downpipe, which would also explain the loud exhaust and turbo noise.
It’s a “test pipe” just the testing is still ongoing 😆
J pipe more than likely but it could be several things
Probably tuned as well
Mazda3s are outstanding vehicles!!!
This Mazda must have gotten caught in a beyblade tournament. Brutal hail damage!
21:42 I’d say with that exhaust the whole yard knows it runs now…😂
Drove by the headquarters today I got excited about something new in the driveway. That we have seen before on the channel for your daughter. I like it. I was hoping to say hello.
Hello Randy. The 2014 Dodge Journey is a good looking SUV even though it's got hail damage. The Ford Windstar Limited is a good van.
Love Mazda! My daughter and I have Mazda's. They are great!
Hey I bought my 2013 Mazda 3 from Copart and it’s been the best car I ever bought. Mine was front ended and that was the only headache I learned with this gen Mazda series is that the frame is very weak or better said lacking support in the front. So even though my car didn’t look horrible it was frame Ben t pretty good and it took some time to pull and chop and weld. But after that best car for the value I ever had super great mpgs. Long range. Affordable insurance etc.. great car. And they have ok resell value with low milage… and only mechanical thing I have learned or ran into is the pcv valve is faulty on the skyactive motors so you have to add a oil catch can and clean the upper manifold and lifter / injector area every once in a while. Other than that awesome affordable go getter
I feel like the Journeys could have been a decent vehicle if they never had the 4 cyl 4 speed auto option. The pentastar is the only way to go on these if you're in the market for these and they come with the 6 speed auto.
I bought a 2008 Mazda 3 withv145,000 miles on it. I just love this car. It's great for delivering pizza, great on gas mileage, and has plenty of room. It is also very fun to drive. Please show more Mazda's. Also, I really enjoy your videos when you repair them with Monkey Wrench Mike.
Most people are more familiar with the RX series than other Mazda models. Ford contracted with them back in the day and supplied them with engines, chassis, etc. The Ford Ranger and Escort of the 90s and early 2000s were essentially rebadged Mazdas. Their engines were known for their reliability and durability. I had a 08 Milan with the 2.3 L which had 260 K on the original engine and transmission when I sold it years ago.
Mazda are great cars man! I personally have a 2011 Mazda CX-7 2.5L N/A that with 346k miles on it and it’s still running strong. Original engine and transmission. Still on its original Alternator believe it or not. We’ve had this car since brand new
I have had over 5 mazdas. love them!
My 2011 Mazda 3 has 78,000 miles on it and has been 100% reliable. I have the I sport which is a base model with a 2.0 Ford engine , no timing belt to worry about and decent enough power mated to a 5 speed auto. Its not fast but it easily will do 100mph ! lol
I love the Subaru, Rebuilds💯👍 my favorite car brand
I have a 2013 Mazda 3 grey matellic color it's been a great car no issues at all . Runs deives great .mine drive awesome great on gas mine has 149,000 miles on it and drives runs like new no joke there very good cars if taken care of .Mazda's are very unrated for the price u pay the quality has gotten so much better over the years.
Thanks for looking at the Windstar. The whole time you was looking at Journey, I was like please look at the Windstar next and you did. 🤣
The limiteds only came in 4 colors with the gold trim. Beige, Black, Green and Red. Beautiful vans.
I daily drive a 2012 Mazda 3 skyactiv, I really like the black leather interior, and the acceleration might surprise you especially with the high mpg.
Sometimes, a starter that is just starting to go out, will hit a spot it won't where it won't start, but a jump will get it beyond that spot. Also, you can sometimes tap on the starter with a good stout wrench while turning the key (a two person job) will get a bad starter to start a few more times as well. I had one once that would start 9 times out of 10 or better and then need another bump until that trick no longer works or you get tired of it and replace the starter.
That first Mazda really is pretty rough. Those electric windows though, sometimes rocking the switches back and forth gets them going, like you found out. However, when that doesn't work, you can try slamming the door shut while holding the switch. I had one like that, and after it started going down, it worked just fine.
And the foggy headlights, but spray gets them looking pretty good again. Just don't let the bug spray dry or they'll get really sticky until you get them cleaned off again.
i have a 2012 skyactiv i love the car gets great gas the only time it left me stranded was when the drive belt shredded on my way home vacation. But was able to get it to a hotel and get a new belt on and get home thanks to my dad driving home at the same time. My only gripes are the lack of power with being a 2.0 N/A with like 155 HP from factory but probably more like 113 after the years. Honestly id recommend it but id go for the newer models with a little more HP if it were my choice.
The vw GTI parts can be very expensive even though they are plastic
Good Morning There My Good Little Bro Randy Lee Shear Of Auto Auction Rebuilds
If you buy that Subie, paint it with camouflaged multi-color Greens, Browns and Tans with spray bombs or paint it with some bedliner paint, throw some aggressive metal metal bumpers and bull bar on it and beat the crap of it off road. People seeing it would love it!
My parents have owned 3 Mazda 3’s, an 08 1/2, 2011 and a 2016. They were great cars, just regular maintenance, great fuel economy. They are a lot like a Corolla except there a more “sporty” and a lot nicer inside.
Yes! They are worth it! Especially if you can find a Mazda speed 3. They have like 263 horsepower for a little car like that. I call it the “Japanese GTI”.
That electric focus got me off guard I had honestly never heard about that thing before not even any articles or nun but I worked on a combustion powered focus and the rotors are tiny you can hold almost all 4 in Both hands
We had a mazda cx5, it was a great little suv. Made several long trips in it , and my wife daily drove it. Only replaced it for a larger suv. Unlike the replacement it never had to do a repair. We also bought a new subaru back in 2008, it was a huge piece of junk. Most people love their subaru though
Randy... when you say, "This would be an easy fix..." like the red VW I keep wishing you'd get it and show the repair process. I would THINK that'd generate a bunch of views and still make some money on the resale. PLEASE? Those were the videos you used to do that really drew me to your channel.
well all i can say i bought a 2007 Mazda 3 5 years ago for 600 knowing i was going to have to do a trans im a mechanic and been a gm guy my hole life and i thought it was going to be a nightmare the motor is a 2.3 and its a automatic and once you remove all the plastic stuff and air cleaner box there's actually all kinds of room and is super easy to work on i actually pulled the trans out the top with my cherry picker in my drive way car had 120 thousand when i got it i got a used 70 thousand mile trans for 500 i still have the car it know has 200 thousand on it still going strong haven't had to do no wheel Barings i did replace ball joints when doing the trans i have to say one of the easy front wheel drive cars to work on and they are pretty fast for what they are and they take corners really good one down side are strut mounts if you don't replace them the car becomes a rattle box other then that never had a problem with the 2.3 motor in 5 years so far and it don't leak or burn a drop of fluids if i was ever to find another one dirt cheap i would want it to be a manual tho
My 2011 Mazda 3 has 412,00 miles and runs great.
That Subaru sounded like it had equal lenght headers on it, then they loose that deep boxer rumble
Get the vw and do a colab with Charles the humble mechanic, that would be a great video
That G Wagon is from New Jersey, the inspection sticker gave it away lol
I'm thinking Mazda was partnered with ford back in the day. The 2.0 is the same engine that they used to put in the Focus
I like the Ford Windstar beside the Dodge Journey. I'm handicapped so it'd be nice to have. My 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe is too high and hard to climb up into
The Mazda 3 is a fun little car especially if you have a manual but the automatic is ok too
By the way, I think you should take the wrap off the Chevy Spark and do a custom Auto Auction Rebuilds wrap on it.
It'd be so cool! 😎👍
Dodge 2.4 is a great engine. My dad has one in his Dodge Avenger it's fast
Ford and Mazda had a working relationship for a long, long time - the original run of Rangers were just rebadged B-series pickups from Mazda all the way from '93 to 2011. The first two generations of Mazda3's were built on the same platform as the Ford Focus, and thus they use FoMoCo parts (which are readily available). Heck, the Duratec engines (which evolved into what is now EcoBoost) were based on Mazda's L-series engine.
I have a Gen 1 Mazda3 with over 200k miles on it (have owned it for 10 years, starting at 127k miles) and it's still going strong. Cheap parts, easy to work on, and it just keeps going. I'm gonna drive it until the wheels fall off.
Can you look at a nissan, rogue 2021 renewer Thank you and randy I a big fan and hope to see you I want learn more about because I am interested in this type of stuff 😁❤🛠🚘
Randy doesn't matter if it's 1000 miles or 70k miles they can all have a check engine light on
Have a 2012 Mazda3 hatchback, Skyactive engine, 130k miles. I've only had to replace the parts that wear out over time..
Randy Mazda's are phenomenal cars. My dad was a Mazda tech for many years and he worked in a dealership but also sold at GM Cadillac Chrysler and Honda. And he used to always say that Mazdas rarely came into the shop because they never broke down. They would come in for services but very few repairs. Parts for those Mazdas are not that expensive. This is not a German vehicle they're made in japan.. they're actually right up there with toyota.
26:32 beating things out with a hammer is good life advice 😅
That suburbu is like the 2013 rav 4 i bought last year with 59K miles on it. Paid 18K for it
The Mazda 3 can make someone a cheap daily A to B. They will be cheaper than a perfect use one.
I do like the dodge journey my mom had a gt v6 I learned how to drive in one and I've loved them ever since I glad you finally showed one but the se or sxt ain't worth buying in my opinion
The Dodge journeys also come with the 3.6 L V6
I would replace junk yard parts on that subi and pdr the rest
Getting full coverage on a hail damaged car may be a big problem from your insurance company. Typically the hail damage needs to be fixed first. If you can pay cash and be ok with liability only then its an option.
Nice WRX man that could be a fun project, too bad it's not for sale, the VW golf GTi is Also a good deal Randy
Randy, the dodge at the beginning of the video is classified as a crossover. crossovers are like a mash up of minivans/suv's but on a smaller scale. i drive a buick rendezvous and that falls into the same category. hope that info helps
My mother in law has a journey they are okay vehicles. Kinda too big for me. Just have a hubby and 2 dogs so we don’t need anything that huge. At first he was like “but the 3rd row seat is nice to have for extra passengers “ the most passengers we have is maybe an extra 2 or 3 so a five seater is fine for us. But yeah I didn’t know the journey had a 4 cylinder for that big of an suv
Please do a panther platform. You always rest your bag on them
I like a good looking car as much as anyone. However, the older I get, the less I care what a vehicle looks like so long as I bought it that way, it serves the purpose I bought it for, and got a great deal on it. Now if I bought something in perfect condition and it ends up with a dent or scratch later, it drives me nuts and my eyes go straight to the damage every time.
Mazda 3 Are Nice Cars But Sliver One Mostly Body Work & Front Suspension But Think Randy Three Year Old Vw Golf Gti With Front End Damage Is Winner
Hey Randy, I just got done watching your Cooper walk around that you just released today all the cars did you look at it pretty neat. I’ll be looking out for your next video. Whatever you have planned buddy I hope you have a great day. Talk to you soon.
Would you be able to show some Volkswagens?
I have a 2019 journey black top. It has a v6 that moves it very well not as my Mercedes sl55 amg.
Great video Randy ❤❤❤❤
Really enjoyed this video Randy. Thanks for looking at some different imports. I can’t remember the last time you looked at a Subaru.
Build over the Subaru with your son, he will enjoy having something with a little 🐌 plus it's awd so he won't spin out when he puts his foot down ect ect....... plus it shouldn't be too much work for the both of yall to fix up
Hey Randy! Can you look at a gasoline ford focus? It’s way more better than an electric one last video.
Please show more Chryslers and ford sedans.
I'd replace the glass and put a white hood on that Subaru. Then detail the inside and drive it. All you see when you're driving it is the interior and the hood.
Heck with the roof other than scuffing off loose paint in the pockmarks and shooting those spots with some DupliColor.
Maybe sell the performance exhaust and put something a little more stock back on it so I don't have to listen to the Drone. On the other hand Subaru exhausts are farghin expensive. 😅
6:30 I can’t believe I found myself laughing at this line. I guess it’s funny it a sick, morbid way. 😅
Yay, more Mazdas! 🥰 Though I agree, that silver one is junk…I didn’t start caring about Mazda as a brand until I bought one myself, but those early 2010s models are kind of a mess
If Nick can drive a stick shift, that Subaru wouldn't be a bad car for him....depending on what the check engine light is on for. It gets decent fuel economy, its kind of sporty but not too fast....
I picked up an old mazda 6 26 had the small V6 5 speed. Someone straight piped it vroom vroom. I couldnt get title from the estate 😔. That was a fun car to drive for what it was 🎬🚘🔥🔥👍. Thanks for cool vids Randy 🫡
Can you please look at some Newer Minivans and Rental Cars?
Could you check out that blue 10th gen corolla at 5:53? Couldn't tell if it was wrecked or just a loose bumper, but those are great cars and they still go for good money these days.
Can you please look at more Ford Taurus like 2000/2007
Could you do a 1982 Toyota Tercel 4 door car with manual please love your video
That would be hard to find, but those older toyota, nissan / datsun were fun and easy to work on
My Son has a WRX. He loves it and so do I hope ya snag it!
Surprised that dodge had a 4 cylinder. Windstar brings back memories. Mazda good winter beater. Like the Subaru. VW maybe.
The journey is a crossover mini van suv
11:09 kia soul by the mazda infront of the lexus rx black suv please
Hey randy why don't you find a cheap body shop to do repairs to do hail damage,or wrecked vehicles?
I’d stay away from the Subaru purely because of the stereotype of WRX owners lol
14:27 23rd garage needs the frame for theirs.
I had a mazda 3 hybd was amazing car ran of gas or battie is worth the money
Them windstar s i don't c them on the road at all i agree
Do i need to say it randy 😂 you know what ill say... you still got that subaru swag i sent?
I’d like to see a Honda pilot.
Hey you finally are wearing different clothes!!! Nice shirt!!!
Dodge Journeys can be equipped with a Penastar V6, my mother has a Dodge Journey with that damn Penastar V6 engine (she names him Darrell btw‼️)
Randy if you find a 2015-2019 Nissan Armada, can you please review it. I’m looking into buying one. I would love your opinion. Thanks 🙏
Mazda is an excellent car, 95% as good as a Toyota and cheaper to buy.
Windstar please. Im curious what the button outside is for
So Randy, how about this? Let's you bought a new car, top dollar. Drove it every single day for the pass 15 years, put over 200,000 miles on the car. Then it gets light hail damage. Hardly noticeable, but it's noticeable when close up. That's the only thing wrong with the car. Would you keep driving it with hail damage, or total it out and get something new. It's just a regular mainstream car, not a special car.
Hey could you keep an eye out for a decent chevy Silverado, and or decent cars. Nothing electric pls
Those dodge journeys do come come with the v6 and with that slow ass 2.4
Can you try to find a Mazda b4000 2004 to 2011 pls
Please, if you find a Nissan Maxima, can you look at it?
how much should I pay for 2014 Chevrolet Cruze ltz the rear quarter panel damaged at a minimum? randy
Can you show a Chrysler 200??
Pass on the Journey with a 4 banger. I get stuck with one once from a rental car company. Way under powered and not great fuel economy.
Can you check out the cargo vans?
You're the best man 👍
