As i understand, MZ-3 has better metering, spot, etc... DOF preview. More buttons, etc...
Everything else is similar. I'm using MF with snap-in-focus detection almost all the time. And yes - looks like camera is in good shape.

I can buy used MZ-3 body for about USD 150. Is it that worth? I'm using currenly Pentax ZX-7. And most of my leses are manual focus. P.S. Of course *istDS is better choice, but it's far more expensive...
That depends. If you are looking for a body for easier manual focus, you might find all MZ/ZX bodies are pretty much the same with not-so-good viewfinders, except the MZ-S. Another issue with MZ/ZX bodies is that there have been many AF mechanism failure within a few short years for no apparent reason. This is certainly something to check when buying used.
