Price of the Mazda Mazda6: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
20094dr 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.
20074dr 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.
20074dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.3L I4
6-speed manual FWD		Approx $3500AUD less than comparable Toyota Camry with similar features.
20064dr 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.
20064dr Sedan turbocharged 274hp 2.3L I4
6-speed manual AWD		I bought as a 2006 leftover when the 2007 MY was already available.
20054dr Hatch 160-horsepower 2.3L I4
5-speed manual FWD		It fit my budget. What else are you supposed to put here?
20054dr 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.
20044dr 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
YearBody/PowertrainComment
20144dr 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.
20094dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		More expensive than Malibu with fewer features.
20094dr Sedan 272-horsepower 3.7L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		The price changed between our phone conversation and my visit to the dealer.

What Our Members Are Saying about Mazda Mazda6 Materials and Workmanship

Available Features of the Mazda Mazda6: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
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
YearBody/PowertrainComment
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.

Materials and Workmanship of the Ford Freestar: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2004 4dr Minivan, ext. 201-horsepower 4.2L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Many plastic interior parts have broken or come loose, the entertainment controls have worn down and the markings are now unreadable
2004 4dr Minivan, ext. 193-horsepower 3.9L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Poorly mechanical design. Not reliable at all. This is suppose to be a family vehicle?
