2013 Mazda Mazda3 value

By Hari Vinayak · Updated 2026-06-12

Quick answer

A 2013 Mazda Mazda3 in good condition with average mileage (about 162,500 miles) is worth roughly $5,150 in a private-party sale — a fair range of $4,750 to $5,550, or about $5,900 at a dealer. Note: 2013 is a flagged year for this model (2010–2013 (salt states)) — Rust at the rear arches and rockers — the era's main weakness. Southern cars are fine. Expect to pay at the lower end and budget for that risk.

What to check before you pay

  • Rust on rear wheel arches and rockers, 2010–2013 especially in salt states — look closely and check under trim
  • 2014–2018: LED headlight unit failures — a single replacement can run $800+; verify both work fully
  • 2010–2013 2.0/2.5: generally solid; check motor mounts and clutch wear on manuals
