I got a work vehicle in my most recent position and am looking to sell my old car.

It is a very fun car to drive, great handling and very peppy.

I live in Edmonton but make regular trips to Calgary for work and could bring it down if there was interest.

Some info on the car:

The good:

This car was purchased by my parents brand new, and driven by my mom up until I bought it from my parents in 2010

~62500 KMs
It is the GT model so top of the line (A/C, rain sensing windshield, power windows & locks, sunroof, biggest motor available at time
Has aftermarket heated seats installed
It is a MANUAL 5 speed, not an automatic
Comes with both winter and summer rims/tires
In great shape, essentially no damage to body of vehicle

The Bad:

The windshield has some cracking, nothing terrible but it will likely need to be replaced in the next year or two
It likely needs new winter tires for next year, but the summers should be fine for another year or two
It has been in two accidents, neither major, but both would show on a carfax. One where someone backed up into it in a parking lot, another where I was side swiped. The damage was fully repaired and I have driven the car for well over a year since the most recent accident

I'm looking for $6500 or best offer. Equivalent Mazda 3s on autotrader are asking $8500 or more with more kilometres. I'm just looking for a quick easy sale, and if nothing comes from this I"ll probably just sell it to a wholesaler. PM me if interested!

Here is a picture of the same car and color (not mine). If you want actual photos of mine I can pull it out of the garage.
