The 1982 Mazda 626: before you buy

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 1982 Mazda 626 for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. The 1982 Mazda 626 for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.

Recalls and complaints

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

Engine and fuel

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

Size and space

Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives.

Try before you buy

Rent the 626 first, and buy only if it fits your life. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.

Choosing the right one

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.

The cost of driving it

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
