this car is making me second guess getting the WRX. hmmmmmmmmmm

i mean...wrx = boxer 4 turbo = 227hp and a tight performance setup with lots of options to go bigger
mazda6 = 3L v6 = 200hp...but its new so theres gonna be the same problems as were all having w/ the civic and finding aftermarket parts. but can you even imagine putting a turbo or a supercharger on the mazda motor?? mmmmmmmmmmm...that sound of the v6 turbofied...soooooooo good. plus it looks real good.......[IMG]i/expressions/demon.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/demon.gif[/IMG]

It's a very nice looking family sedan. Mazda has given itself a chance to compete by going the sport route and not trying to compete directly with the accord and camry. However, if they are going for the sport ladder in the family sedan market, they should have at least made it faster than the conservative accord.

Actually the Mazda 6 in Japan was out quite sometime ago before it was released in North America. It's called the Atenza in Japan and yes, it has aftermarket support. More than the 7th gen civic i believe.

oh, im not doubting that japan has more tuner parts for it, but how much of that will be available here?
what would be your choice then? the 6 or WRX? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

Editoooh oooooooh! this isnt about the mazda6, its about the rx8...lol

Linky...just click on it
