1993 Mazda 323 review from North America
"A quick and dependable automobile for the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The radiator had a crack, so it was replaced.
Replaced seats due to extreme wear. Avoid the plastic seats.
Fuel filler neck had a leak.
Not very comfortable on trips over 250km.
General comments?
Besides these few faults the car is great.
I give MAZDA credit for making a very reliable vehicle.
Very fuel efficient, I get 500km to a tank easily on the 40 liter tank.
I love 323 and hope it lasts me 3-4 years more.
