Thinking of buying the 2001 Mazda 626?
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2001 Mazda 626 for sale by us right now. Buying the 2001 Mazda 626 is a big decision; here is the information we have.
What to check on the 626
Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Owners filed 188 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, engine and engine cooling and air bags; have those parts checked.
The numbers in plain words
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. Every 100 km costs about $14.57 in fuel at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,700 a year for 15,000 miles.
Good uses for the 626
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
The 626 in everyday use
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. Its 396 litre trunk is enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
A longer test drive
Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. If the 626 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent first, buy later: a week with the 626 answers the big questions.
Picking a year and a trim
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
Running costs
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $145.70 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Over to you
Tell us the car you are considering, and we will help where we can.
Rent it for a week before you buy
