What it was and what did you like/hate the most about it?

It’s slightly offtopic, but firsthand experience may help first time car buyers to choose.

    My first car was an 87’ RX7 fast back, though I only got to drive that twice. So, I’ll go with my second, a JDM 90 (I think) Mazda Familia.

    Likes:

    1. Hatchback
    2. Unusually high clearance (not sure if stock) which made it great for fishing and heavy snow.
    3. Unusually wide tires. See above.
    4. Great acoustics for audio.
    5. Amazing gas mileage.

    Dislikes:

    1. Looked like a toy.
    2. You weren’t getting anywhere in a hurry.
    3. Burned oil, though it did have 360km and was a lemon lot (military folks know) special for $200.
    4. Lemon lot special, so probably had many short term owners.
