1994 Mazda 626 LX review from North America
"Best car I've ever owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The sunroof came off the track at 130,000 miles.
Minor spots of surface rust on the hood.
General comments?
The car is quick at taking off and spins the tires in 2nd gear.
This car handles very well and shows no signs of understeer through the turns, though the ride is rather harsh at times.
The car attains an average of 32 miles per gallon.
It is a very reliable car and has never broken down in the time I had it.
This is one of the best cars I have ever owned and I would not hesitate to buy this car again or another Mazda.
