#1 of 5 Closest comparable make to a Mazda by zillah Oct 26, 2006 (4:12 am)
There aren't any Mazda dealers around me and I'd like to take my old '96 626 into a dealer garage for maintenance because they tend to have all the parts on hand. Is there a manufacturer that is comparable to Mazda which may have interchangeable parts like perhaps Honda or Toyota or even GM?

Replying to: zillah (Oct 26, 2006 4:12 am) Ford is your best bet, but I doubt there are many interchangable parts that a Ford dealer would stock for a '96 Mazda. Do you have an auto parts store in your town? They might be the best place to find parts for a '96 Mazda. Replies to this message: zillah (Oct 27, 2006 4:00 am) backy (Oct 27, 2006 7:58 am)

Replying to: backy (Oct 26, 2006 8:03 pm) Hi, I'm very lucky in that I live just a few miles from NAPA and Advance Auto Parts despite the lack in Mazda dealerships. Thanks for the tip. I wouldn't have thought an America car would be the closest. I just heard that Hondas were very interchangeable with just about everything and that Kias are the same as Hyundai. Didn't realize that.     Replies to this message: backy (Oct 27, 2006 7:58 am)

Replying to: zillah (Oct 27, 2006 4:00 am) Kia is controlled by Hyundai and some of their newer vehicles do share some engines and chassis pieces, but not much else. Ford has a controlling interest in Mazda.
