2002 Mazda Mellinia S
I bought the car new in 2002 & still have it with 75000.00 miles. It is a wonderful car with beautiful a design. I have had no problems at all with this car . Although newer cars have a lot more gadgets , I am satisfied with what i have . It has a good power & the gas mile is OK for the amount of driving i do.Because of this car I will definitely consider a Mazda if I decide to buy another vehicle although a hatch would make more sense. I am updating my review. Around 80,000.00 miles my Mazda refused to drive in Drive mode. I had ti put it into !st & as the rpm's rose put it in drive. Cost me $ 2800.00 to fix. A few miles later the car stared to overheat. I had changed the radiator fluid every 2 years even if it did not need it. It cost me $1000.00 to have a new radiator, hoses & thermostat installed. When I went to pick the car I was told that the Floor pan & frame was badly rusted . My car was always in a garage & washed practically every week.Cost me another $1000.00.A month later the check engine light came on. It needed an air flow sensor & temperature sensor. I had the car running to the dealership & traded it in for a 2016 Subaru Crosstrek & had the bottom rustproofed. I will not consider a Mazda again.

Best car I ever owned
I bought my 2002 Millenia S in 2005 with 27,000 miles on it. It has 87,000 miles on it now and I have replaced tires,front and rear brakes,broken radiator hose and vacuum leak. Thats all I have done. Car runs perfect...always passes smog test and looks amazing. I get compliments on it almost every time I drive it. Everything still works like new and the car has lots of power with the supercharger.
At Six Years & 80K
Bought brand new for $25K after owning 2 brand new Accords. This car still turns my head in a parking lot full of newer models. Very dependable, fun to drive, comfortable on long trips. Cost to replace timing belt is doubled due to the supercharger belt. Love to hear that compressor sing, though. This baby really scoots with the Miller Cycle engine and scroll supercharger, even if it does require premium gas. The alloy wheels have coroded on the inside resulting in loss of air pressure in tires and excessive wear. Paint on side view mirrors has worn off and auto-dimming rear view mirror has worn out. Other than that, it has been a wonderful ride.
So Far So Good
I love the look of my car I think it is a very classy looking car. Mine is black and looks great when it is clean and polished. I obviously haven't had it very long but have always liked the look of these cars.
My sons 1st vehicle
So far everything seems fine. Good looking and running car. 109k on it so I'll update if problems arise
