What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the the Chevrolet Corvette
| Price of the Chevrolet Corvette: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2007 | 2dr Hatch 400-horsepower 6.0L V8 6-speed manual RWD | Hard to find a car near this performance level for the dollar. |
| Price of the Chevrolet Corvette: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2007 | 2dr Hatch 400-horsepower 6.0L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD | Costs quite a bit of money |
| 2003 | 2dr Coupe 405-horsepower 5.7L V8 6-speed manual RWD | Can get very expensive with too many options and dealers are reluctant to discount the price, but that is changing as cars with large V8 engines get harder to sell. |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the the Mazda Mazda6
| Price of the Mazda Mazda6: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Probably mostly due to the economy tanking, and car dealerships wanting to move product, I got a very good deal on this car. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 156-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD | I bought it via internet shopping-the only way to go. Got a great price & saved more w/refi. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.3L I4 6-speed manual FWD | Approx $3500AUD less than comparable Toyota Camry with similar features. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 274hp 2.3L I4 6-speed manual AWD | Picked mine up pre-owned with 17k on the clock and about 3 years old. As a used car, it is hard to find a better bargain for what it offers. Cost thousands less than any Evo, Sti, or R32 I could find on the market. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 274hp 2.3L I4 6-speed manual AWD | I bought as a 2006 leftover when the 2007 MY was already available. |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD | It fit my budget. What else are you supposed to put here? |
| 2005 | 4dr Wagon 215-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD | I got an excellent deal on my Mazda6, about $800-$1000 less than a comparable car with similar equipment. |
| 2004 | 4dr Wagon 220-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Was going to buy a 2004 with $4000 model year-end rebate |
| Price of the Mazda Mazda6: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2014 | 4dr Sedan 184-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Extras added up quickly, but you get what you pay for. No special MSRP discounts from Mazda, as the car has only been out for a short time this year. Toyota and Honda were offering better discounts. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD | More expensive than Malibu with fewer features. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 272-horsepower 3.7L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD | The price changed between our phone conversation and my visit to the dealer. |

| 2005 | 2dr Convertible 400-horsepower 6.0L V8 4-speed automatic RWD |
Good materials along with great execution. It always looks like it is still new. |
What Our Members Are Saying about Mazda Mazda6 Materials and Workmanship
| Available Features of the Mazda Mazda6: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2013 | 4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent paint and precise panel fits (better than the 2010 Honda Accord I previously owned). The doors close with a dull, Teutonic thunk. Inside, fit and finish is very good with generally good materials. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
There are no cheap materials in this car; interior AND exterior. The vehicle is solid; no rattling noises. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 274hp 2.3L I4 6-speed manual AWD |
I was surprised by the interior finish, actually a nice place to be. Cabin is comfortable, even on long road trips. Interior plastics do not have cheap feel and fitment is on par with an Acura sedan. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 274hp 2.3L I4 6-speed manual AWD |
Fit and finish was better than any car I have ever owned. In about 25K miles of ownership, I did not have one thing break, fall off, or come unstuck. The car was built in Hiroshima, Japan (not in the US). |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 220-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed manual FWD |
No rattles, well screwed together |
| Materials and Workmanship of the Mazda Mazda6: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Some of the plastics are cheap hard plastic. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 272-horsepower 3.7L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Too many small rattles and little problems. Granted this was the first year model run, but the quality control needs to be upgraded. Dealer and manufacturer support has been the best! |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 274hp 2.3L I4 6-speed manual AWD |
The interior just feels too cheap - especially for a car with MSRP of over $30000. |
| 2004 | 4dr Wagon 220-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Interior materials not up to standards of Honda or Toyota |
| 2004 | 4dr Wagon 220-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Inferior quality of interior plastics used. Persistent (and irritating) squeaking and rattling noises from steering column and dashboard. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 220-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Too much hard plastic. Fit/finish was just OK. |
