The 2000 Mazda 626 for buyers
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2000 Mazda 626; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. Thinking about the 2000 Mazda 626? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.
What to check on the 626
Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Owners filed 217 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, engine and engine cooling and service brakes; have those parts checked.
Specs, explained
The engine is the 2.0L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and a 5-speed manual. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
By the EPA's combined rating of 9.4 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 28 litres. Expect about $14.57 per 100 km at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Space and size
As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. The EPA lists 396 litres for luggage, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Who the 626 suits
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
Drive it on your own roads
Drive the 626 on your commute before you commit to it. Try the 626 on your commute, then decide. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
Money matters
The EPA estimates US$2,700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $14.57 in fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Which one to look for
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Within the 2000 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
