What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of 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 |
I bought as a 2006 leftover when the 2007 MY was already available. |
| 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. |
| 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 |

| 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. |

| 2002 | 2dr Hatch 160-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Was a great value at under $20,000 for a new Acura in 2002 |
