yeah that 6 is def nice lookin. they both have new engine designs from any other mazda before. but its amazing that the 6s (v6) loaded even with all chrome exterior detailing and chrome fuel door (looks like the TT) is only just under 23k and thats with 17s too

Protege... then add a larger intercooler (the one in there is WAY too small, it's from the euro diesel version), a turbo back exhaust (stock is the same as the MP3), and a boost controller... That's about all you'd need.
The 6 will share the same problem with the Altima... it's fast, but looks like a family sedan.

Rep Power: 0 its a sports sedan. it has a aggressive front rolled hood, almost looks like an old z3 with the way it rolls over the grill. i think the 6 is more along the lines as like the acrua tl type s, thats only 260hp which is the same as the 6, but the tl def. doesnt look like a family sedan although its almost double the price of the 6 haha

Rep Power: 0 My next car is not gonna be a honda unless they jump on the turbo bandwagon. *sigh* I would love to get another honda, but everybody else is coming out with hellovalot faster cars for not much more money. I think I need to drop kick honda's engineers in the *** to get them going.

Rep Power: 318 where did you guys get the 260HP ratting for the V6 on the Mazda 6? the Mazda website states its 220HP on the V6, and 160HP for the 4cyl.
also, prices start at $19,XXX for the 4 cyl with a manual tranny and #21,XXX for the V6 with the manual tranny.
i'm not flaming on anyone, just wanted to correct the info.
