1993 Mazda MX6 LS review from North America
"Quick and flashy - great deal!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Both the MX6's I have owned, red (1994) and black (1993), have both had pretty poor paint jobs; although it is an older car, the clear coat is coming off and the paint has cracked on my black one pretty bad mainly along the front of the car - my red MX6 was quite noticeably faded..
Needed a new radiator in the 94 and went through a couple transmissions although this may have been due to the people working on the car and HARD driving. 93 has been fine with both transmission (even with hard driving) and radiator.
General comments?
Even for an automatic, the V6 is pretty speedy.
This car is great, especially if you want to add any modifications to it.. looks SO much better than many other older cars and drives smoothly.
Sits relatively low to the ground for a sporty look, even without lowering springs -- equipped with sunroof and good stock speakers!
Love these cars, great look and I'd buy a third if I could!
