1993 Mazda 626 LX review from North America
"Cornering Lemon"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Vehicle drove fine until 100000, trany went (1400), distributor (500) constant muffler replacement each year. Replaced cv boots 3times.
General comments?
My frist car, loved it to death, but it just didn't hold up too well. Way to much maintience and upkeep.
Handling was great, not too fast, but decent enough. Roomy enough to fit 4 adults comfortably.
