1994 Mazda 626 LX review from North America
"A fun, sporty and reliable car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I burned the clutch up in my car about 2 months after I bought it.
I needed a new valve cover gasket, I had to continuously fill up my oil. But this was fixed at the same time my clutch was put in.
My sunroof would go back, but not forward, so in the process of forcing it back during a down pour, I broke a piece off the track.
General comments?
I love this car. I am only 17 years old, but this car has proven to be reliable and safe.
I can't believe it's 10 years old already. The car has a look that will never go out of style.
It looks sporty, yet it's big enough to hold all of my friends.
It's very fast and easy to control. I would recommend this car for anybody.
The car was only $650.00 total, but I bought it from a friend and it already had approx. 130,000 miles. I look forward to putting a lot more miles on it, and keeping it throughout college.
