1994 Mazda MX3 Precidia review from North America
"Definatly a 9 out of 10"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Battery needed to be changed, if the headlights were left on with the car off, the battery would die within 10 minuets, not the fault of the car, just a crappy battery I'm not sure if it was the original battery or if had been replaced by the previous owner.
Muffler rattles, it may just be a loose heat shield or something like that, not a big deal. I'l fix it when I get a chance.
General comments?
This is by far one of the nicest cars I have ever driven (The nicest being a Jeep Cherokee) I handles awesome, and sticks to corners like no other.
Not a lot of power, but what do you expect out of a 4 cylinder 1.6L engine? It is easily upgradeable to a BP 1.8 L DOHC which will give it a bit more boost, and odd performance parts will boost the HP as well.
I The interior is styling, not a lot of room in the back seats, but plenty of trunk space.
