Mazda worth fixing?

[bmwdriver86]

I got a mazda 626 year is 1996. Looks like Im gonna need a new transmissioin in the car. Is it worth replacing or just getting another car? I have a system in the car, exhaust, chip, intake, aftermarket spark plugs, spark plug wires, distriubtor cap, distributor rotor. Would it be worth selling the car for what I can get for it or replace the tranny at this point? Get back to me please.

hard to make that call without seeing it or knowing the mileage etc. I just blue booked mine on the web it is worth retailed at about $4900 but that is in good or excellent condition115000 miles.....but I bought it originally for 500 dollars and it needed a trans(go figure) and to be completely truthful all the add-ons you listed does not really add to the value of the car.....

I am selling my car now that i have it in running condition and I will probaly end up taking $3500 I hope at least.....I hope some my experiences with this will be helpful to u.

Tough call, the auto trannys for this car aren't very reliable.

i replaced the tranny in my car for 900 bucks thats with a pro installing it although he was working on the side 600 for the tranny and 300 for his time

if you plan on modding this car for performance(and looks like you may be starting), I wouldnt dump money into an automatic tranny. Especially for this car (not so great trannys)

I would just get another car.
