1996 Mazda MX3 GS review from North America
"Nice car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The gasket was screwed when I bought it, so I had to replace it, but it was under warranty, so it's OK.
I had to change the battery too.
This summer, I plan to check on the brakes because they are noisy. The suspension and the shocks absorbers are hard, so the car is very bumpy.
General comments?
It's a nice little car. I can't say if it's reliable since I only had it for a month.
Cornering is OK.
But I love it very much.
I hope Mazda going to rebuild this model.
