1989 Mazda MX6 review from North America
"Great bargain as a used car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Original clutch replaced at 215,000.
Original water pump replaced at 280,000.
Original alternator replaced at 270,000.
HLA's replaced at 270,000.
General comments?
Very reliable. Constantly replacing parts store CV joints and alternators. Buy Genuine Mazda parts if you can afford them. Creeping up on 300,000 and still getting 30 MPG.
