Mazda 323 — Performance Wise, Acceleration wasnt bad, Braking not bad, Handling was so-so car was too light in the rear so sliding would occur occasionally. Build Quaility, Pretty cheap, but it only needed a service occasionally, IT DOESNT LIKE IT WHEN TRUCKS HIT YOU! Mileage, about 700kms per tank if you take it easy. Maintenace, service it every 10,000kms and it will treat you well, Fun factor it was alright Primary Use: Commuting to work Pros: Its was comfortable to drive, Good on fuel Cons: Auto, Front wheel drive, 1.8L 4 Cylinder SOHC, If you ever want to drive to bathurst (Through Bells Road) get a manual & or a turbo/something with more grunt. |

A Resonably Priced Good Car — This car was not the best, but it lasted me for 12 years with very few problems. It got great mileage. Not very roomy compared to what I have now, but it carried what I need it to. I'm sorry they don't make these cars anymore because they were good. I paid $7000 for it in 1990- not bad. Pros: reliable, good gas economy Cons: can't think of any- ugly |

1990 Mazda 323 — The 1990 model 323 is a great little car. It's a good looking car, it's very economical and it just keeps going and going and going. My one is a grey color, it has 14in alloys, and looks great. It also has tinted windows as well! Definately worth keeping. A very fun car to drive, it can go just about anywhere. Pros: Great little car - it just keeps going! Cons: I sometimes wish it had a bit more power! |

1st Is Not Worst — The first car my folks purchased in america. A classy Mazda, if I ever saw one. A manual, fuel efficient machine. Fast as can be. Fuel efficient in a time of no desperation for fossil fuels. The good old .90 a gallon days. That Mazda got full off of 9 dollars of gas. Pros: Fast Cons: Small |

Great Little Car — My car is reliable and easy on the gas budget. The tires are small so the cost of replacement tires is minimized. It is easy to do simple maintainence like changing the oil. Pros: 5-speed manual transmission Cons: rust is going to kill it |

Such An Evergreen Car From Mazda — I have sold my MX3 V6 to get this car. It was crappy, not looked after well, but I have been caring about it and it is getting better now;) I love the shape of this car with 5 door practicality! Just amazing and its performance is identical with MV3 V6, however, it is very mean about fuel :) Owner for 1 years, 0 months Miles Driven per Year:5,000 Pros: Lovely shape just timeless, Lovely performance and economy from 1.8 DOCH, 5 door practicality with 2 door coupe design, pop up lights are just awesome, Cons: ABS might have been standart on 1.8 models because it is a fast car! |

Own a Yellow SP20 version of he car. It's okay but it is a pain that it uses 95RON fuel. Great grip and brakes but there is a few reliability issues with the mini coils and the we've had the gearbox... Read More
