Just got one and I love the car. I'm not going to compare my Vibe to it since they are completely different, but I really like the car. If anyone cares, I'll give a personal review.

I saw a review of it on http://www.canadiandriver.com and thought it looked really sharp. What colour did you get?

Sputnik · Post by **Sputnik** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 8:01 am

It has two engines.You're right on the first one - Mazda6 s 3.0 L dohc, 24 valve, V6the other is the Mazda6 i - 2.3 L, dohc, 15valve, 4 banger.If it had been available last summer, I might have considered it over my Vibe.

We have to V6 version and it is Lapis Blue Metallic. It puts out 220hp with VVTL and is really smooth. I'm so used to my GT screaming that it seems a little tame at times. We just received the Ford discount so that was a really nice discount.

That colour is nice. Its the colour of the one Canadian Driver showed.

Blue is my favorite color especially if it's not plain navy blue. I hope to add a blue RX-8 in the near future if things turn out good at work

Post some pics, give us more info! I saw one at the NAIAS this past weekend. I only got one pic of it. I will post it below.Did you replace a vehicle with this, or was it an additional vehicle?I got a good look at one at the show and really like the way they look. Gotta love that power! Is this the color??

Sputnik I must say I'm jealous... I'm over here ready to cheat on my Vibe with the Mazda6... I love those sexy lights, is it as nice of a car as it seems?

It will be available in a wagon alsoâ€¦.Europe will have an AWD version. It would be nice to have the 220 hp, six speed, wagon and AWD, only time will tell.

Don't be jealous of me! I don't have one.

I will try to get some pics. Unfortunately due to the snow, the car is looking a little salty right now.

I am very impressed with the Mazda6. It is a huge upgrade of the 626. Mazda is on the right track.!

LocDog · Post by **LocDog** » Tue Jan 14, 2003 5:05 pm

oopppsss... well im jealous of the person who got one.... and all that i said applies to you..

Sputnik · Post by **Sputnik** » Tue Jan 14, 2003 8:38 pm

The front end kinda reminds me of the BMW Z3 Roadster. MMmmm Roadster.

I like the 6 but I think the RX8 looks funny. I loved the last RX7.

Wagon looks nice, except for the the altezza-esque taillights... yuck!

Shadow Realm · Post by **Shadow Realm** » Wed Jan 22, 2003 4:37 am

The 6 is sweet! The thing that I heard about the 8 was that they were bringing back the rotary engine in it. That would be very cool! I may be a player for one of those. It depends on the room it has. I love the rrom in my Vibe.

mu_ohio · Post by **mu_ohio** » Mon Mar 10, 2003 8:30 am

Well here are some pics of the car finally. Notice my Vibe sitting all alone in the background. I need to drive it some more.

Sputnik · Post by **Sputnik** » Mon Mar 10, 2003 8:47 am

Thats a really nice car. Love the colour.

millster · Post by **millster** » Mon Mar 10, 2003 8:57 am

Very nice! That color is great! I think the only color I've seen it in before is black, well the show cars in yellow too, but I love the blue!

That red does look nice! Honestly, I think the Mazda 6 is one of those cars that looks good in any color.

Post by **NSimkins** » Mon Mar 10, 2003 10:49 am

Looks great! I haven't done much looking around at the 6, but I would take one if I had the chance. Feel free to post more pics... we like 'em!!

Great pics. Could you post your personal review, as suggested? I'm sure many would be interested in it (myself included).

One of the cars I was looking at when I looked at the vibe. Of them all, the Vibe won.

Very nice looking car. I have liked those ever since they came out. I don't like it quite as much as my Vibe though. Congrats!

Mazda 6.....Nice car. Wish it was out when I was looking for a new car. Would have like to compare it. Still like my Vibe GT though.!
