2003 Mazda 6 s review from North America
"Couldn't break this amazing car if I tried. LOVE IT. Looooove it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1 Headlight & 1 Fog-light bulb went a couple months ago. Easily replaced under warranty.
Starter slightly grinding on cold mornings. Replaced (under warranty) just to be safe.
General comments?
Couldn't be happier with this car. It handles like nobody's business when you put the right kind of rubber on its feet. Reliability is almost an insult to me - I drive this car like I hate it. Like I'm being chased by the cops. The fact that NOTHING major has broken on it yet? I feel defeated. Three years of thrashing and still nothing has gone wrong with this bulletproof beast. It's been my favorite car, by far. Warranty's expiring soon so I'm getting a little nervous. Not sure if I should keep killing it and hope for the best or just break down and get the Mazdaspeed 6 (droooool). I just love when someone asks my opinion of this car, I could talk people's ears off about what a great value this is. Mazda has made a real gem here.
Highly, HIGHLY recommended.
