Wife purchased in 1994 4-cylinder LX as a 1995 "Mazda program car" (had 18K miles, now has 107K). Transmission light came on @ 1999 (car was most likely abused prior to purchasing with 18K miles)- we couldn't feel anything different but had it replaced anyway. No transmissions problems since then. Other than regular maintenance like oil/filter changes, the only major services have been a new timing belt and replacement of front drive axle gear (tie rods, links, boot covers...). It has been very reliable in our 15 yrs of ownership. I purchased a new 2000 Protege (loved it for what it was) but traded it in for 2004 MPV (3 kids happened). Want to buy Mazdaspeed3 but 626 keeps going.

1995 Mazda 626 4cyl automatic 145k miles

Bought this car new in 1996 (left over from previous year). Despite other opinions I love the way it looks and I consider it basically trouble free. Friends with Hondas and Toyotas envy me for the little trouble I had with it. Reached 145k miles and never got me stuck on the road. The only main problems I had were the oxygen sensor (changed it 3 times). I lately read Mazda 626 is known for faulty oxygen sensors. Changed timing belt twice as the book recommends. I think it was a really great car for the money, but now the catalytic converter needs some $800 repair job. I would buy Mazda again, but hate the looks of the new Mazda 6: too bulky. Will consider buying a 2007 Acura TL.

I've had my mazda for almost 18 years now and i still haven't had any problems. I get great fuel economy and the performance is always excellent. I love my car and i always will. ZWorks well through any weather condition especially in the rain and snow.

I've owned my 626 for 4 years. I bought it used so it is now about 8 years old. It has never let me down or left me stranded. At 60,000 miles, I had the timing belt changed, and the exhaust system. But those are normal things that you would have to do on any car that you keep for those number of years. So far, I love this car and it still turns heads. I always stay on top of my maintance so I don't wait until something goes wrong or put it off until becomes so expensive. Maybe that's why it has been so faithful to me.

I bought this car brand new in 1995. It has been a very good car overall. I did have to replace the pwer steering rack at 56K and the transmission at 145K. It now has 196K miles and is running well.
