Ive had the pleasure of driving a couple of these at work and they are nice to drive, well equipped etc, but both had really bad rust issue's. Not sure if they are bad for this or it was just coincidence the two I mot'd were rotten. I would definatley consider one for myself if I found a nice one.

I like them, there were a rarity at the Ford shows I used to go to years back - luckily I never saw any gack bodykits on them, compared to the Probe's which had :facepalm: bodykits

A mate at University had an MX-6 - great car.
