1995 Mazda MX3 GS review from North America
"I can only hope they start making these by the time I am ready to buy brand new.."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to change the distributer (2 weeks ago) and redo the exhaust. Aside from that, it's just been routine maintenance...
General comments?
This car handles like a dream!!! Of course, part of this excitement is that manual transmission in general offers more control...
The front of the car is pretty comfortable, but the back is for short people only! And definitely no long trips back there. But this is offset by the incredible amount of storage space when the back seats are lowered.
The look of the car is AWESOME! I have "lusted" after this car since I first laid eyes on it at age 13.
