| “OPERATING CONDITION: Excellent. Fun, sporty, & reliable daily driver with no history of mechanical problems or repairs, or prior service work.COSMETIC CONDITION: Good. Clean & well maintained. Minor interior wear & tear includes small, superficial scratches/blemishes on trim/dash and a few small areas of minor dark discoloration of the light tan colored roof liner fabric. Minor exterior imperfections include 10-20 small, 1-3mm paint chips concentrated on the hood and front bumper and multiple scratches that have been touched up on the right rear fender. The majority of exterior flaws present are small and not terribly noticeable unless one looks very closely at the vehicle. Even then, most flaws have been treated with OEM touch-up paint to minimize their cosmetic impact. Overall, these exterior imperfections detract little from the unique, standout appearance of this tastefully upgraded 2012 Mazda 3 hatchback.” |
