1994 Mazda MX6 LS review from North America

Muffler @ 40,000 miles.

Water pump @ 49,000 miles.

Battery @ 50,000.

Locks @ 79,000 miles, key broke off in driver's side door, other locks froze.

Struts @ 82,000 miles.

Exhaust and Resonator @ 100,000 miles.

Distributor cap and rotor @ 105,000 miles.

Tie Rod Ends @ 110,000 miles.

Power antenna was also replaced.

Spark plug wires on this vehicle had to be replaced relatively often.

I got this vehicle in 1999 when it had 25,000 miles on it. I drove it until February 2005 when it reached 117,000 miles. I'd still be driving it now if it wasn't totaled in an accident.

I'd like to find another MX-6 to replace it. I loved this car. I tried to keep it well-maintained inside and out and wanted to get to at least 150,000 miles.

Parts were expensive and there were small things that needed replaced, but it drove like a dream... even with over 100,000 miles.

The body design seemed well ahead of it's time. Trying to find a different model in the same price range (from 1994-1997) that looks as good as the MX-6 is impossible.
