The 2000 Mazda saw quite a few changes from the previous year. The front and rear ends were restyled; the handling, brakes, and steering were made more responsive; and many new options were offered, including front side airbags and larger alloy wheels.
The 1999 Mazda 626 was available in four times: the LX, the LX V6, the ES, and the ES V6. The LX was the midrange model. Upgrading to the ES gets a power moon roof, leather interior, and a six-way power driver’s seat. The base engine was a 2.0-liter, 130 horsepower four cylinder, and the V6 had 2.5 liters and 170 horsepower. Fuel economy is 22/28 for the four cylinder and 20/26 for the V6.
Many drivers like the 2000 Mazda 626 because it handles well and is fun to drive, saying that it is much sportier than the top-selling family sedans on the market. 626 enthusiasts also like the car because it is comfortable and gets good gas mileage. Many four-cylinder drivers say the car is underpowered. Others complain the back seat is too small.
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 2000 Mazda 626 find it to be a reliable and decent car for everyday use, especially for short commutes. They appreciate its good mileage, comfort, and durability, often noting that it's easy on repairs. However, some drivers feel that the performance, particularly the acceleration, is lackluster, especially given its small engine. Many find it satisfactory for their needs but expect a bit more in terms of power and acceleration."
style body and shape. single owner, non smoker. built in sunroof, air conditioning working, not too many repairs, not too expensive, maybe a good stereo speakers, leather interior, original motor and transmission in good condition. not too many squeaks and rattles.
March 30, 2010I got this car used in Jan. 2008. It had great mileage considering the year - 79000, and was well kept. Silver, sunroof, Bose sound system, leather seats, V6. Since then, I have had absolutely no engine problems. Overall nice car.
October 16, 2009Its ok. Nothing great about it. The acceleration is nothing great, it is a 4 cylinder, and a small 4 cylinder at that. It drives nice tho and is a good car and treats me well. I've had a few problems here or there but nothing that ever cost more than 300$ to fix. Its reliable and i feel fine taking it on long distance trips. I have 185,000 miles on it and counting and it stil runs fine. It shakes a little bit when i am stopped at a stop light, but if i put it in park or neutral it doesnt do it.
