| 2006 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 274hp 2.3L I4 6-speed manual AWD |
It took a while for me to adjust the seat properly, but after I did, I have to say the seating position and comfort rivaled many European sedans I have driven. I was not used to this level of comfort from an Asian-designed automobile. see full Mazda Mazda6 review |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
I can fit three car seats in it. I can put my seat as far back as I need to and most adults can still sit comfortably in the back. see full Mazda Mazda6 review |

Large enough for a six foot fiver and still room in the back. see full Mazda Mazda6 review |

For short trips the Speed6 is fine. Longer than 2 hours in the car kills my back. Maybe the seats are cheaper in the Sport vs. the GT. Fortunately I've only taken 1 or 2 very long trips in it. see full Mazda Mazda6 review |

| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
A little tight up front especially when compared to the M35 which is very roomy. see full Acura RL review |
