1993 Mazda 626 Es Sedan 4-door 2.5l on 2040-cars
Huntington Park, California, United States
|
Up for sale is a used 1993 Mazda ES. This is the top of the line model, though not all of the optional equipment was added. For example, the interior is cloth rather than leather. The seats are manually adjustable. The seats show little wear for the most part and have held up well. The interior is more worn in some places than in others. The ceiling has some tears, and the cardboard frame of the driver’s sun visor is showing. However, the lighted vanity mirrors in both visors still work. The carpeting is stained in the rear, but I haven’t tried to remove it. It may very well come out. The rears seats have no tears whatsoever. The exterior of the vehicle is in fairly good condition considering its age. The body is complete, and aside from a couple of minor dings and a dent, it’s pristine. The clear coat has mostly faded, but the paint is intact.
The car has had the transmission, shift cable, engine, alternator, catalytic converter, and front suspension replaced. The engine was the first thing I replaced in the vehicle. I did not purchase the engine, so I cannot vouch for its mileage. I was told it had less than 100,000 miles, but again, I don’t know for certain. I personally put less than 20,000 miles on the car, and the engine runs well and doesn’t leak. The shift cable was replaced about two years ago. The transmission was recently replaced with a Japanese import and was supposed to have 50,000 miles or less on it. I have put about 3,000 miles on it since. It does not leak and shifts well. Most of the front suspension was replaced with new parts (control arms, ball joints, shocks, struts, mounts, wheel hubs). The catalytic converter was replaced. The air filter was also recently replaced. The alternator gave out about a month ago and was replaced. The brake pads probably need to be replaced in a while and the tires retain most of their tread. There have been several other miscellaneous repairs done on the vehicle, including tune ups. Mechanically, the only problem is the vehicle's rough idling. |

2014 Mazda6 earns Popular Mechanics' 'Car of the Year'
Tue, 12 Nov 2013Ring one up for Mazda. The Japanese brand's midsize offering, the Mazda6, has been named Popular Mechanics' Car of the Year. The 6 received a comprehensive reworking for the 2014 model year that saw it adopt sleek, sexy sheet metal; a clean, logical interior; and powertrain technologies that allow it to net some of the best fuel economy available in a gas-powered, non-hybrid sedan.
Popular Mechanics praised the 6's Skyactiv 2.5-liter, 184-horsepower engine, as well as its agility and responsiveness during testing. It also remarked on the functional, but well designed cabin, and the degree of available technology.
"The Mazda6 really impressed us with how well it delivers so many things modern car owners want: great mileage, fun road-handling, upscale features and looks - and remarkable value," said Jim Meigs, Editor-in-Chief of Popular Mechanics.
Mazda still has a team working on rotary engines
Sun, Sep 20 2015The flame still burns within Mazda to stage a rotary engine revival. Before you start getting excited, it's way too soon to start saving money for the fabled, next-gen RX-7 or RX-8. Still, company boss Masamichi Kogai confirmed to Autocar that the Japanese automaker has an engineering team dedicated to improving the Wankel. This development group has the hard task of trying to make the rotary stack up to modern internal combustion engines in terms of emissions and fuel-economy standards. Neither factor were ever exactly Wankel's strong suits. Kogai described them as working "very enthusiastically" to Autocar. The boss didn't discuss any future RX-vehicles or the size of the team, however, a report from last year indicated that there were 30 engineers in partnership with universities to update the engine's design. After problems keeping up with emissions and fuel economy, Mazda built it's last rotary for an RX-8 in June 2012. Since then, there have been intermittent rumors of a return. One possible solution was a design called the 16X that was supposed to offer more torque and better fuel economy. Another possibility was a small-displacement unit as a range-extender in an electric Mazda2. Rumors of a new RX-7 have been heard for years. In 2013, Kogai clearly said that it wasn't happening. When asked again last year, he reiterated the same point.
2014 Mazda6 i Sport
Fri, 01 Feb 2013In an automotive landscape dominated by platform sharing, technology exchange and any number of other cross-fertilization/cost-saving/amortization exercises, it's actually pretty rare that we get to drive a new car that is as "all-new" as this, the 2014 Mazda6. With brand-spanking new Skyactiv architecture throughout - engine, transmission, body and chassis all included - this 6 represents a new era of flexible production and cutting edge running gear for the happily lithe car company.
Our own Jonathon Ramsey did a cracking job of running the Mazda6 through its First Drive paces a few months ago, and sufficiently impressed upon us just how good looking a car this is for the midsize sedan segment. Suffice it to say, now, then, that this is easily the most interesting (and quite possibly the most beautiful) midsize sedan in the segment today. However, as Mr. Ramsey reviewed a fully contented example of the 6 - one equipped with the six-speed automatic transmission - we took advantage of Mazda's North American launch event of the car to suss out the base Mazda6 i Sport, complete with its six-speed Skyactiv manual gearbox. This may not shock you, but the stripper's pretty good, too.
