How can I check if my 2005 Mazda three comes with the immobilizer?

Call the dealer and ask them to run the vin, they can tell you.

If you look at the dash where the speedometer is, when you take the key out it should blink. They all do. I have a 05

Get a new key cut at a hardware store, leave the old key in your house and attempt to begin the car. Should just crank over but not start.

Three ways,
See if a red light blinks on dash near windscreen on drivers side.
Open up the fuse box to see a fuse named engine immobilizer.
Ask a friendly car thief.
Good Luck.
