1998 Mazda 323 Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Owners generally appreciate the 1998 Mazda 323 for its reliability, sporty looks, and fun driving experience. Many love the fuel efficiency and overall performance, while some feel it could benefit from more power and modern features. Minor maintenance issues, such as air conditioning and windows, are mentioned but not seen as major drawbacks."
Fast and nice looking car, good on acceleration, braking and handling, has needed a couple of minor repairs, faulty air conditioning, radio aerial needs looking at and the window can only wind half way down but good for its age, nothing major, economic on petrol and insurance and runs well otherwise.
October 20, 2009Performance- Acceleration not great but cruises well. Breaks ok but no ABS. Handles ok but rolls on corners. Build Quality- Ok for age only had to change break pads and discs so far. Cost- MPG 37. Maintenance is not bad, cheap tax. Overall- Not a bad car for practicality but not for the serious motor head.
November 24, 2010performance: brilliant, torque is good pulls strong great everyday car dont have to thrash to get up to speed. build Quality: brilliant, ive crashed mine and the damage was, bent towing eye, bent headlight fixing points, bonnet and bumper frames not even a scratch on it chassis strong. appearance: looks good outside great shape, inside comfy easy to live with. cost is ok but i do many miles, £60 odd to fill it from empty and £30 ish from half way so cant really complain, easy to repair fairly cheap parts for it some are expensive but like most cars fun to drive best to stick with 15" wheels and lower it as its abit tail happy with stock springs.

March 30, 2013Comes with powerful twin-cam engine, sexy curve outline with detailed interior, superb handling that attack the track like a lotus.. there is nothing coming close to Mazda Astina in the recent years. Low maintenance, good fuel consumption, fun to drive!
August 12, 2009At the moment stock but she is getting a mazdaspeed 2.3 turbo conversion soon enough so that should boost performance just enough to keep me going. She still has more power than you would actually think she does. Fun times
