1989 Mazda MX6 LX review from North America
"Baja mazda"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My slave cylinder went out at 168,471 miles.
My alternator belt came off at 176,846 miles.
General comments?
My mazda isn't like any other one out there. We have come to call it the Baja Mazda. Suprisingly enough it handles realy well in the mud because of its weight and the front wheel drive. I have pulled many of trucks out with this car.
As far as mods go a new cd player was the first thing to go in along with some MTX 12s powerd by a 1,000 wat pioner amp. The next thing was a 300W power inverter placed neetly in the dash under the new cd player. Then I custom fabed a light bar out of angel iron and bolted it on where the sun roof closes. On top of the light bar I have four 100w kc lights ot light up the trail. Now no off road vehicle needs to go without a cb radio that was the nest to go in along with a 4 foot whip.
