    The styling of the Millenia was ahead of its time.. I see cars today that took styling cues from this design.. one of my favorite styling cars ever.. ❤️

    Always loved the looks of this car; one of the best looking sedans Mazda has ever produced.

    Lovely car and beautiful interior but I am totally shocked at the price of $33K in 1995 for the S model, that is $65K in today's money which is crazy high for a Mazda. What were sales volumes like?

      I had a mazda millennia s 14 years ago my first and best car ive ever owned. Unfortunately couldn't take it with me to California because of very strict smog standards. Took me 7 years and 3 cars in the meantime but i ended up finding another mazda millennia that the same color and only had 77k miles on it. Bought it for $3,000 and ive been driving it ever since and its been the most reliable car I've ever had still. Right now i average around 450 miles on a full tank of premium fuel. You can bet that hurt when the gas prices shot up and was paying about $100 per fill up.

    That was a really nice car for 1994. Way ahead of its time.

    Always loved the look of the millenia. Back then, it was a gorgeous car, especially the 99-00 millenia S in white.

    Bought a 95 in 2000 with average miles for about 10 k and drove it until late 04
    Pros: Comfortable, excellent in the snow, good sound system, and pretty nimble.
    Cons: Check engine light came on 6 months after buying it and the body rusted terribly, but I lived in a cold climate at the time.
    I don’t see any of them around even here in the southwest where older cars look nice sans faded paint.
    They were probably all junked because they had a lifespan of 8 to 10 years.
    Should have bought a 90 Lexus 400 at that time for about the same price with 100k on the odometer, and it would probably still be running with a half a Million miles on the odometer.
    Bought all Toyotas since then.

      A Miller Cycle engine has *nothing to do* with Mazda's Skyactive. Skyactive uses homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI).

    Bought my 97 used when it was a few years old. Loved it until it had tranny issues under 60k miles. Aamco didn't fix it right so got my money back and traded it in.
