2007 Mazda MAZDASPEED6 (Sport, Grand Touring)
Posted on May 03, 2008 under Mazda |Silver 2006 Speed6This is the first Japanese car I’ve owned in a long time. Th cars performance is good but the cars finish and details are rough when compared to the German cars I’ve owned for the past several years.
Turning circle is wide for a car with this performance.
It’s a fun toy, but I will go back to VW, Audi or BMW when my lease is up.
No Accord or Camry for me:Great little sleeper car. Especailly for the money. Fell in love with the very first test drive. Wife wanted an Accord. It was not bad but everyone has one. Mazda may be a Ford but just as reliable as a Honda. The accord was not very fun either. If I am going to drive this for the next several years, I want to WANT to get in the car.
I found out how much I loved this car when I had to get a rental for a week when someone busted in and tore up the center console trying to get the radio (and stole my shifter knob. ????) Helps to lock it at night. OOPS. The turbo gives awesome response. I push the petal, I want to go. Not think about it for a minute.
Best of all, not everyone has a speed6. Only 5k per yr in the US.
So sit back and hold on and try not to smile the whole time you are driving. (It can hurt after a while. But so worth it)
