Not for everyone
Great style, accurate handling, a well- engineered powerplant and lots of fun to drive are the good features. Poor build quality and cheap assembly materials are the major complaints. The M Edition was only built for one year, making it a rarity among the rare. MX6 was pricey when new, so the car didn't sell well compared to the near identically outfitted Probe. If you like exclusivity and can deal with the few problems (all simple and easily fixed with good information on the Web), this is a great car.
1996 Mazda MX6
This vehicle has been a good vehicle. I haven't had many repairs at all, just standard maintenance. The only drawback I have seen is that the car is not terribly comfortable on long drives.
MX6!!!!
Great car, not very common. Silent killer, although the mods are expensive if you are a racer. Nice car for anyone, has the looks and the speed to make almost anyone happy.
Enjoy owning it
Not sure why the reviewer by the alias of bebe is complaining about part cost... the MX6 and Probe are built on the same drive train and was a joint venture. The little work I have had done didn't kill me. I also do maintenance on my own car and yeah it's packed... but so are most newer cars with V6's or above. Stick to a V4 and you should have more room to maneuver inside :) Although I'll be replacing the car in a little over a year, I've been very very happy with it overall. Wish it had a little bit more oomph, but if I really wanted that could have got something else. The styling is just excellent and the ride is very good.
Reliable, fun, comfortable
This is my 4th Mazda and it still just feels right! Bought used from Hertz at 25K miles, runs beautifully, now 100K miles and still trouble free. Engine is 4 cyl, economical, running Mobil 1 now, starts right up even in winter, runs smooth. Ride is sensitive without being harsh. Can carry just about anything including aircraft parts with folding rear seats and hatchback. Just love this car, after 3 RX-7's it's not as sporty but neither am I at 50!
