"Never ever a Mazda again"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

All four rotors and pads have been replaced at 150k - $600.

EGR Valve @ 125K - $450.

Mushy brakes, master cylinder at 155k - $350.

Alternator ~ 160K - Rebuilt for $150.

A/C compressor @ 160K - ~ $600 job, didn't even think about fixing.

General comments?

Compared to my 94 Protege, this car is a piece of junk. Sluggish, gets poor fuel economy and very expensive to repair.

Considering your repairs are all above 100K miles I wouldn't complain. Any Car, Any year with over 100K miles are fair game with repairs...
