Great car!
I have enjoyed my car Millenia tremendously! The check engine light constantly comes on, which I think that's how these companies are fixing these cars these days, so that you will take them in regularly for the least little thing! My car runs like a "brand new car", mainly due to my repairing things as they break down vs. waiting. I presently get about 270- 300 miles per tank of gas, which I guess is not too bad for a 10-year old car. I have had the timing belt changed, valve cover gasket repaired, O2 Sensor and Crank Shaft replaced this year! But for a 10-year old car you should expect to make some repairs. I would recommend this car to anyone that's looking to purchase a reliable car
Is the turbo reliable
Bought this car used and now have 85,000 miles. Replaced ball joints at 45k, catalytic converter at 59k which fortunately was still covered by Mazda. My only concern is how reliable the S model is vs. the non- turbo model. So far so good. Considering the car is ten years old, it's been a great used car and the rare times I floor the gas pedal, it's amazing to feel the 210 hp kick in for quick passing. Plan on keeping it for another 85,000, just hope the turbo doesn't surprise me by breaking down. Digital L.E.D display showing A/C mode, and outside temperature no longer works and it's expensive to fix.

Great Car
I bought my Millenia S new and it now has 83,000. Both the handling and acceleration are great. I've been thinking about getting a new car, but nothing compares with the value of this car. Wish they still made them.
Great Value at Today's Prices
If you bought a Millenia several years ago, you can't help but be disappointed by the resale value. The price of the car has been lowered over the years and you can now get one for nearly the price as a loaded Camry or Accord. As far as quality of ride, features, and appearance there is no comparison. The car shines on the highway, cruising quietly and effortlessly at 80mph. If the car had another 50hp and a little more front leg room it would be near perfect. I have 50,000 miles on my Millenia with few problems. A noise in the rear suspension cost $250 to repair and the automatic tilt occasionally acts funny, but overall it has been trouble free.
Mazda Millenia Premium
Excellent handling without sacrificing the ride. Quiet, solid, well-made feel. All controls are within easy reach, and the crisp blue-white instrument illumination is a very nice relief from other less desireable looks. Very nice lines, especially at night. Parts (such as headlights) very easy to replace.
