As far as the car's acceleration, braking and handling I don't actually know because I'm still doing some repairs to it (head gasket, fuel pump , brakes, etc.). The car did come with a fully equipped Kenwood 1800 watts amp professionally installed in the trunk that was pretty loud and nice. It also came with some nice shiny rims by the brand Bigg Wheels.Oct 08, 2014

it has needed a few repairs, a new o2 sensor, needs a an exhaust pipe weld , a few rust spots the kinda came out of nowhere, ive had to replace the air intake boot....which was a pain in my a**! and it does burn oil like its its job!
i love the gas mileage now that the o2 sensor is in, to a full tank i get a little over 400 miles, acceleration isnt top of the line but it works, i cant say much about thge brakies, i need new ones, but it does brake very well, no pull or shaking. it handles very well too, the interior is nice, the front buckets arent to comfy for long (8hr) road trips but then again what would be comfy for 8hours straight?
i love my little car, it does have it downfalls but the good outweigh the bad....if you find one of these cars for sale buy it!Sep 28, 2011

It is very comfortable, especially for a cheap sedan.
It gets pretty good milage.
Has stayed together pretty well, although the paint scratches easily (mine's green).
Huge trunk for a midsized car.
Could have better breaks.
Drivers window stopped working.Aug 11, 2009

Acceleration-not bad, could be better.
Everything else great.
Very fun to drive in and around town.
Gas mileage was about 23-25 mpg.
Easy to maintain.
Interior was smoked in before we got it. But we were able to get rid of that smell.Aug 04, 2009

Family car yet, with the heart of a sports car! A Mazda classic! I love the lines on the outside of the car. The engine has a wonderful hum with my preformance exhaust, Its a fun car for the whole family!Jul 29, 2009

It's pretty practical and reliable until the miles get really high. Mine's been almost trouble free until around 170k when everything goes to hell. Luckily mine has a proper manual tranny so it's not too slow. I also hate front wheel drive, but that can be said about most cars.Dec 20, 2008

Lookes like an old-mans car, but is a very reliable ride.
Economicle diezel.
Drives good, but wind-sensitive.
Could have move umpf (horsepower). Can be upgraded from 115 to approx 140 horsepower, but is costly.
I would bye it next time with full auto- climate.
Practical car, but not much fun driving.
Cheap in parts.

Den accellererer ganske udmærket, har et godt bundtræk, men den begynder så småt at rust i skærmkanterne. Den kører forhodsvis langt på literen men ikke så langt som den er opgivet til fra fabrikken. Købte bilen da det skulle være en gennemprøvet model.Jul 21, 2008

This car is a fun little car that you can drive (conservatively) like a sports car. with a good set of tires it breaks well and has a bit of a kick (with a standard). when it comes to cornering you really cant just do whatever. this is a car that you must learn and have to plan every corner if if you want to rip it. i you make a mistake this car will always under steer. if you nail it it can offer a good amount of g force that would be expected from a car of this class.Jul 07, 2008

I've had the car for quite a while now and it's actually for sale. It's been a great car and it was a peppy little thing. I've had a blast with it. I had that SOB at 135mph so it didn't do too bad. It's just time to retire it to someone else.Jun 27, 2008

Ya get the power of a RX-8 and the looks of a 929. If you want a more luxurious Lancer Evo. without much dropoff in performance the Mazda 6 series may be your ticket. There is some but surprisingly little (or least to me).Mar 24, 2008

The Mazda 626 was a nice-looking car, but it was not reliable. Every few months, something went wrong with it, whether it was something small or large. I had to have the transmission and power pack replaced. The timing belt broke. It cost more to keep the car than it did to buy it.Mar 03, 2008

Absolutely beautiful car. Great value. Rides well. Comfortable driver's position. Pleasing interior color scheme for dash and seats. Huge trunk. Nice finish. Nicely organized dashboard. This is the best car I have ever owned over my 40 years of car ownership. The Mazda 6 is a poor follow-on: bloated, too expensive for what it is, with a dash from Trashville. Feb 20, 2008

The automatic I4 models from around the '99 model year have known problems with the transmission. Mazda used a weaker transmission from the Ford Probe in this model. As a result, I had to get the transmission replaced no less than 3 times before getting rid of the piece.Jan 27, 2008

Bought the car new. No problems other than paying the dealer top $ for 60k maintenance. However, after 100k car developed problems with transmission, sensors and other little things.Jun 07, 2007
