1993 Mazda MX-6 Reviews, Pricing & Specs

Coming out of Michigan rather than Japan, and built in a plant shared by Mazda and Ford, the MX-6 sport coupe entered its fifth year in production with a major redesign, resulting in a sleeker look, an expanded list of standard features, and more power under the hood. The base (or standard) MX-6 received a 118-horsepower, 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder engine, while the higher-end LS version got a nice kick in the power department with a 164-horsepower, 2.5-liter V6. A five-speed manual transmission was standard, while a four-speed automatic was optional. Standard features for the base model included power brakes, power windows, power door locks, and power exterior mirrors, as well as a driver's-side airbag, cruise control, a tilt steering wheel, and an AM/FM/cassette audio system. The LS added such features as fog lights, an anti-theft alarm system, and alloy wheels. Options included air conditioning, a sunroof, anti-lock brakes, and leather seats (the latter for the LS only). The MX-6's styling and sportiness proved to be attractive to many drivers, who also liked the car's ride and quickness. On the downside, many noted that the back seat could be cramped, and some drivers reported that their cars needed frequent repairs.
