Austin: your problem is that it's an older Mazda. My cousin in MA was a Mazda mechanic... and he shares your sentaments exactly. Except for the RX-7, old Mazdas suck. And even the RX-7 is known for terrible reliability... that's why you never see rotary powered race cars... the apex seals tend to go too easily.

However for the last 2 or 3 years, Mazdas have been pretty decent cars, on par with other major manufacturers. The MP3's and MP5's are decent cars. The new RX-8 is pretty sweet too. The Mazda 6 is a dope sedan!

FYI: The Ford Probe is a Mazda... it's not that bad a car. Hell the original Probe Turbo from like '87 or whenever is pretty sweet!
