1992 Mazda MX3 SE review from North America
"Nimble and Sporty, But I've Heard Expensive To Fix"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I just got it, so haven't had a chance to really 'see' what has gone wrong, only what blemishes it has now.
It looks like it could use new brakes and shocks. Back window wiper needs some repair.
General comments?
Engine and transmission are in great shape.
It wants to go and the V6 makes it rumble a bit.
Paint job is pretty good. Has a little rust in places, but it sat outside for a year before I bought it.
The seats are really low and kind of hard to get out of.
The automatic shifter is placed too close to the radio console.
