Car Planet Car Planet 11661 Veterans Memorial HWY Douglasville, GA 30134 470-854-8424 2012 Mazda CX-9 — 3-Row SUV | 140,621 Miles | NEW Water Pump & Timing Chain | Car PlanetThe Two Most Expensive Jobs on This Engine Are Already Done. Seven Seats, V6 Power, and No Guessing About What's Coming Next.Here's the thing about buying a 140k-mile SUV — you're not really buying the car, you're buying whatever the last owner did or didn't take care of. On this one, the answer is: the big stuff. New water pump. New timing chain. Both done. If you know this engine, you already know what that's worth. If you don't, keep reading.Why the water pump matters more than anything else on this listOn the CX-9's 3.7L V6, the water pump lives behind the timing cover. It's not a bolt-on-the-front, forty-five-minute job — it's hours of labor, and when one fails without warning it can dump coolant where coolant doesn't belong. It's the single most common reason a high-mileage CX-9 ends up parked. This one has a new pump and a new timing chain, which means the expensive, labor-heavy maintenance that scares most buyers off a six-figure-mile SUV is behind you, not ahead of you.273 horsepower and a 6-speed automaticThe 3.7-liter V6 puts out 273 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque through a 6-speed automatic. That's real power for a three-row — merges without drama, pulls up a grade with a full load, and doesn't feel strained on the interstate. Mazda tuned the chassis the way Mazda does, so it corners flatter and steers sharper than most SUVs this size. It drives smaller than it is.Room for sevenThree rows, seven seats, and second and third rows that fold flat when you'd rather have cargo than passengers. School runs, road trips, moving day, a team's worth of gear — this is a vehicle built to absorb whatever the week throws at it. Air conditioning, power windows, power locks, power mirrors, cruise, and steering-wheel controls all on board.140,621 miles — with the big service behind itSix figures on the odometer makes people nervous, and it should — when there's no history. That's not this. The two jobs that define whether a CX-9 makes it to 200,000 miles have both been done. What you're getting is a well-maintained SUV with its most expensive service already behind it, priced like one that isn't. Buy the condition, not the number.Perfect forFamilies who need a third row without a third-row payment. Anyone tired of shopping minivans. Buyers who'd rather have a V6 with documented maintenance than a four-cylinder with a mystery.
