Hello to you members! I am a Canadian living now in Japan since 2003. I have been wanting a Stagea since I arrived and now I will be taking ownership of a 1997 basic stagea 25x. No turbo etc. It has very low mileage 53,000 klms. and is spotless! One owner. We accidently discovered it on a used Mazda lot. Seems no one wanted it for since April or did not think to look on this lot.
Anyways, my wife and I decided to buy it for its low price! The Mazda dealers just wanted to move it off the lot. I discovered your great site and read nearly all the posts last nite. I hope to learn more about my model from all you members! If anyone wants to email me to chat, please feel free!
One concern I have heard about stageas is a starting problem, mostly from turbo owners....can anyone enlighten me, please? Thanks in advance!
