1988 Mazda MX6 GT review from North America
"Fast and cheap"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The front driver side CV joint went bad at 88000.
The blow off valve or air bypass valve needed replacement at 95000.
General comments?
This Mazda is the strongest running engine that I have ever been in for a four cylinder.
The cars handling is not the best, but some cheap mods can help a lot.
Overall I am very happy with the car.
