My aunt passed this car down to me. She bought the car new and the transmission went at 65k, was replaced with a full warranty. Car now has 114k on it and runs smooth. Shifts rough sometimes. I treat the car like a old man so I haven't had any problems yet, "knock on wood." All around it's just a simple car I drive to work and home.

My Mazda 626 has been an exceptionally reliable vehicle. I have especially enjoyed the great gas mileage on long trips, often getting 35-40 mpg. I have had relatively few mechanical problems. I even took it on my stand up comedy tour (putting on 18,000 miles in the summer of '02). It ran like a champ.

I've had my Mazda for 5.5 years. With the 4 and the manual, acceleration is average but fuel economy is great (32 in mixed driving, higher on the highway). The FR680s I had wore away in 20K, but the Potenzas I replaced them with have been much better. Coming up on my 1st brake job at 70K. Otherwise, aside from oil changes and a new muffler, it's been great and trouble free.

I have had problems with this automobile since the day I drove it off the dealers lot! I purchased a 1996 Mazda 626 DX in May 2000, with 24,000 miles. Two weeks later I was at the dealership with a tire worn down to the steel belts. I have purchased a set of tires every year since owning the automobile. I have also had major problems with the TRANSMISSION!!! I am totally dissatisfied with engineering of this automobile and warn anyone who plans to purchase a Mazda 626 to talk former owners. Our stories are the same!
Great Car

In the heat of summer, here in Phoenix, I consistently am able to achieve no less than thirty miles per gallon. I have had no problems with this car and I just passed 120,000 miles. If you keep this car maintained there's no reason why you shouldn't keep it for a long time to come.
