1996 Mazda MX6 LS review from North America

"Definitely worth the investment"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Engine light comes on about once a month. It stays on for a day or two, then turns off on its own.

Weird screeching noise occurs from the front right wheel when rolling in reverse. Tried to get it fixed, but the noise still persists.

Other than that, nothing has gone wrong with this car, but then again, I haven't had it long enough to really experience anything major going wrong with it.

General comments?

I love the styling of this car! It is so damn sexy from the right angles! The ladies definitely love the look, and I never get tired of turning heads.

I just graduated from high school, and I love peoples' disbelief when I tell them that I bought this car with my money, and not my dad.

The V6 engine creates some wonderful power, and even though I have no previous car to compare it too, it definitely manages to throw passengers back in their seats when I gun it.

With the car being so low to the ground, it handles very well. Taking corners at 70 km/h are a breeze.

The black leather interior is very classy and comfortable, and matches well with the black dash and tinting.

The temperature controls are excellent, with the air conditioning being ice cold, and the heat taking only a few minutes to warm up the inside.

The stock stereo is surprisingly good, although I'm saving up my money to put in a deck, amp and subs anyway.

The stock muffler is also fairly loud on its own too.

There are many areas for customizable improvement., such as the huge muffler slot that begs to be fitted with a monster custom exhaust.

The stock wheels are much too small as fifteens. Luckily, there is plenty of space in the wheel wells to allow up to 20s to be fitted.

This is my first car, and absolutely love it! I treat it like my baby, and I am a very proud father of having it. My neighbours must think I'm crazy, because I'm always washing, cleaning and polishing my car. Although it has severely hampered my spending budget, it is definitely worth it.
