Mazda MX-6 Overview

Coming out of Michigan rather than Japan, and built in a plant shared by Mazda and Ford, the MX-6 sport coupe was based on the same platform as the Mazda 626 and the Ford Probe, and was part of the continuing collaboration between Japan-based Mazda and U.S.-based Ford -- a collaboration that had benefits for both automakers. The MX-6 sported a sleek, sweptback design that appealed to drivers who wanted something other than a stodgy sedan or coupe. Handling, styling, responsiveness, and reliability were all part of the MX-6's appeal, though the back seat was decidedly cramped, so this was probably not the best car for families. For its first few years the MX-6 was powered by a 2.2-liter inline four-cylinder engine that produced 110 horsepower. A GT version of the MX-6, available for the car's first three years, dropped a turbocharged, 145-horsepower version of the 2.2-liter four-cylinder under the hood, which drove the car nicely through the corners and out on the open road. The MX-6 received its only full redesign in 1993, and changed little after that. For the most part, two trim packages were available in the MX-6's later years. A base (or standard) version was powered by a 118-horsepower, 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder engine, while the higher-end LS version got a nice kick in the power department with a 164-horsepower, 2.5-liter V6. In addition, an M-Edition, also powered by the 164-hp V6 and equipped with such features as leather seats, a sunroof, and a CD changer, was available for the 1996 model year only.

Easy to drive, handles great; at 120,000 miles haven't had any major repairs at all; interior is a nice beige leather, shows a tad of wear, exterior is a generic "high resale" white; one tank of gas lasts about 400 miles and with regular oil changes and checkups, I have sidestepped any major repairs; absolutely most fun cars to drive and I've driven much newer and more expensive car than mine.

Although rated at only 110 bhp, the 2.2L 4-cylinder is very torquey, and capable of accelerating the car very quickly, especially when equipped with the manual transmission. Top speed is governed at 185 km/h, although I believe it could do about 200 without the governer. It also reaches that speed fairly quickly. As with most Mazdas, the handling is it's biggest performance feature, and the MX-6 is no exception. Steering is very quick and responsive, and the grip is extraordinary. The brakes also do an admirable job of hauling the car down from speed, despite the rear brakes being drums. This car is also extremely reliable, as the powertrain is one of the longest lasting I have ever seen. The styling is also quite tasteful, and allows for a decent amount of room in the backseat.

What a great car this was, I bought it from the original owner with 78K miles. I went for two years at 15psi of boost, pre-tuned chip, stock everything else. Then the transmission went out. I ended up selling the car, but the next owner replaced the tranny and is still boosting 15lbs, more mods, and 148K miles now on the car. Never needed anything else. Fantastic little cars, low 14s from stock turbo. Will own one again if I ever find another low mile car.

I love this thing! Owned since new (graduation gift in 1990 w/ 7 miles on it) now with 263,785 original engine & turbo! It just won't die. Drive this more then my 2005 Superchared V-8 Jaguar, definitely more fun! I've owned over sixty cars and this is the only one I've held onto over the years. 20 years of drving her and she still makes me smile. Find one and drive it, you'll understand what I'm talking about as soon as you release the clutch.
