Default Mazda 6

Does anyone agree? Everytime I see a Mazda 6, I am just amazed. I am considering purchasing one. What are your thoughts about this car?

I've always thought it was a good looking car. A friend of mine has one, the performance isn't too bad either, for what it is.

Actually, I think Michelle in your sig is sexy!

Seriously, my mom just bought a 2004 Mazda 6 Sportwagon. It only had 15 miles on it, but she got a $5000 rebate just because it was an '04. She got it for like $22,000 before her trade-in. It came with both sport & luxury packages. 220hp V6, spoliers, BOSE stereo, heated leather seats, sun/moonroof, etc. It was pretty much loaded. Definetly a good bang for the buck.

I think the 6 rocks. It looks good and different enough from competitors to warrant a purchase if I were in the market for one. The power is down on competitors' cars, but I hear it has the moves over others.

Very good car, lots of features with an attractive price. My 3 is great for all those same reasons. That being said, the styling won't date particularly well, and Mazda's don't hold their value like Hondas. Gotta give a little to get a little, I guess.

What competitors are you comparing it to? 220hp in a 22-25k sedan is pretty good.

We've had our Mazda6 for a little over a year now and it's been a great car. The only complaint is that the manual shift mode for the auto is a bit slow.

I find without the spoiler and skirts it looks like a corolla or something though, bland. Kitted up it looks nice.
