1989 Mazda MX6 GT review from North America
"Good as sliced bread"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Drive axles, alternator, battery, window switches, timing belt, and water pump.
Just minor problems that come with age.
General comments?
This has been the best car I ever owned. If I could buy a new one I would. Runs like a scalded cat on regular and gets 29-30 mpg on freeway. No engine or transmission problems. It is extremely comfortable for me even on long trips. Been in 2 accidents, patched up and kept on going. Looks pretty tough, but it truly is the Energiser Bunny. Am looking for another one with a better body, but they are hard to find. My advice is if you see one in pretty good shape, BUY IT. Better yet let me know about it and I'll buy it.
