2001 Mazda 626 LX review from North America
"Delightful to own"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
This unit was in an unfortunate head on accident in which much of the frontal components had to be replaced. The cost of the new parts I consider to be out of the question. We bought "not original" new replacements, and the difference was outstanding.
General comments?
I'm a 200 lbs. "six footer", so I think of the steering column to be in an awkward position for someone of my size. I also think the front seats could be a tad more comfortable.
One radio speaker (Lf/Ft door) vibrates, and I don/t think it should, considering the car's year make.
