1991 Mazda MX6 DX review from North America
"Absolute Bargain and Fun To Drive"

Starter replaced at 196,000.
Exhaust pipe replaced at 198,000.
General comments?
I bought this little gem from my brother for $300. to use as a spare vehicle. I have become a very avid MX-6 fan during my brief ownership. It's a blast to drive; quick for a non-turbo. The transmission is especially good with well spaced gear ratios and butter smooth shifts. The engine has a lot of low end torque which makes constant gear-changing unnecessary. The seat fits me well and doesn't hurt my weak back. My car is the stripped down version which helps the acceleration since it's a lighter car with few options. Gas mileage is great with 34mpg on the highway. I like it so much I just found and bought another one!
