1992 Mazda MX6 LS review from North America
"A poor man's Lexus but with high repair costs"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Valve cover gasket.
O2 sensor three times.
Water pump 2 times.
Thermometer.
Transmission 2 times.
CV boot 2 times.
Wheel bearing.
Dash board light.
Distributor.
AC 2 times, I finally bought an aftermarket AC compressor and water pump and never had a problem after that...
Sunroof came off track.
General comments?
Good performance when it is kept in shape... Underrated performance. Mazda should have added more power with the V6. Low end torque could be improved... Styling is awesome, my only real complaint is the overall cost of repairs over the years.
