1993 Mazda 323 GT review from North America
"The best car I have ever seen!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Passengers drive shaft recently ctarted clicking, but at 200k it's not too bat for the original one.
The open differential trans was a poor choice for a 240hp 180ft/lb front wheel drive.
General comments?
Mind blowing acceleration can beat Camaro's and other such "fast cars"
Good mileage (approx 40mi/gal) if you are easy on the gas.
The front and rear sway bars with the stiff struts make it handle any high performance car.
Kinda plain looks, but then they never see you coming.
