1989 Mazda MX6 review from North America
"Strictly Reliable Transportation"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I replaced the oxygen sensor, the neutral safety switch, and had something crack that was letting too much air into the motor. These were all fairly cheap fixes though. I have to help the electric sunroof open by pushing with my hand. The heater and A/C stopped working. It is beginning to shift roughly. It does have over 180000 miles though.
General comments?
When I bought the car, it was 14 years old and I got it for $500. It had been wrecked, the driver's door was crunched. The paint on the car is terrible, really flat and no shine. This may be from the previous owner not taking care of it. The car runs great and is very reliable to start even in below freezing temperatures.
