1995 Mazda MX-3 Preview summaryImage

For its final year of production, the Mazda MX-3 sports coupe was available only in a Base model, since the GS version, with its 130-horsepower V6 engine, was dropped from the lineup. The Base version of the MX-3 was powered by a 105-horsepower, 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine that was linked to a five-speed manual transmission, which was standard. A four-speed automatic was optional. Standard features for the MX-3 included power brakes, power steering, power exterior mirrors, dual airbags, a rear-window defroster, an AM/FM/cassette stereo system, and a hatchback rear opening with a fold-down rear seat. Options included air conditioning, power windows, power door locks, a sunroof, and anti-lock brakes. Many drivers bemoaned the fact that this was the final year for the MX-3, for they found it to be a fun, quick, sporty car with good handling. Some noted that the car had blind spots out the sides, however, and that replacement parts could be expensive.

Really a fun car to drive. Not so expensive to mod or to repair. About 6L/100km with a tank an average of 500km. It's not a good car if you are more than 2 adults. That's about it for the little mx3.Nov 09, 2012

Unique, sporty and fun are how I would I describe the MX-3, known here in aus as the 30x. It handles like a little go-kart esp if all suspension, wheel bearings and steering rack is all sound, mine is a bit worn and sloppy now but still fun! Mazda fitted these cars with trapezoidal linkage to the rear wheels meaning that they turn slighty when turning thus helping cornering. Being front wheel drive you do get some understeer and pushing wide but it's just learning what the car is like and adjusting your driving to suit. I have great fun in mine. They have a 1.8ltr V6 engine, the smallest production 6 ever made but due to this, is has not much low end torque so you have to really give it some curry to get it up and running but once it hits about 4k rpm, just wants to run away from you which is fun. Acceration and fuel economy compares to a 2ltr 4 cyl of the same era, so perhaps they might have been better going with this... They are also very cheap to buy, so if your looking for something sporty and fun for not much cash, look into one of these little gems!Aug 26, 2010
