  • Check out Mazda 6 - 2004 Mazda Mazda6

    I just bought my Mazda 6 less than 2 weeks ago and I love it! I did the research online and drove at least 3 other cars (Nissan,Honda,Chevy) and the Mazda was my favorite. The style is sporty and on the same level as the Altima but at a better price tag. The interior is refined and classy - very well thought out (and not cheap looking). The car handles very well and I saved some cash and bought one with the manual transmission, wife cant drive it (yet) but it is very smooth to operate and I dont have any complaints/doubts about my decision. My advise, look around and drive different cars...but dont forget the Mazda 6!

    Just purchased a mazda after test driving all other cars like the maxima, focus grand am. Main thing that I like about this car, not only looks good on the outside but has the interior and the balls under the hood to back it up. For example my friend has a camamro z28, raced him and it kept up with him till about 80 then thats where the v8 keeps going, but lets face it, how many times you going to pass someone or go faster than 80?the mazda 3 and its interior and was fun to drive. But it has no thrust when your getting on the road or riding the throttle. Got the Bose stereo has a sub in the trunk included,

  • Awesome Ride! - 2004 Mazda Mazda6

    I bought this car new and have never regretted it. It is THE best car Ive ever owned and plan on keeping it until the wheels fall off. With 73k miles on it so far the only things Ive done were normal wear and tear items, new brakes, tires and a battery. I did have to have the radio antenna replaced because I knocked the old one off while washing the car. She still looks great and I get lots of comments on how nice it is. Not a rattle on her and she drives like a dream. Its a shame that the big 3 cant build them this good. Sporty style with a very comfortable interior. Im 6 and weigh 280 pounds and am very comfortable in this car.

  • Good Car - 2004 Mazda Mazda6

    I purchased a 2004 Mazda 6 I (automatic not manual) from a dealership with 40 K on it in 2009. Today I have put another 40 K on it and it runs well. Wheels do wear more on the front half, came fully loaded and has traction control and ABS. This is not handy when driving up steep, snow covered/mush hills in the winter. Other than that, found a crack in the windshield but has not leaked into car. Display for CD player is loosing pixels or dots so volume does not display fully sometimes. Other than that, good car, bad with gas due to V6 engine. Newer models have better mileage.

  • If it was only rear wheel drive - 2004 Mazda Mazda6

    My wife love this car.A 6s loaded. She says she is always being asked, "what is it?" Its so beautiful and sleek. I find the car easy on the eyes with nice style. Performance is very good with the 5speed but a 6speed rear drive platform would leave the 3 series BMW in the dust. Seats are ok just alittle to wide and to hard for my back. Could use tighter suspension with less body roll. Bigger sway bars front and rear and a strut bar for the front would do the trick.

    i bought my dark gray 4cylinder 6i in late october 2003 the rebates made it too sweet an offer to pass on...i love everything about the car with the exception of the fact that i bought the automatic instead of the 5speed to ensure better resale or trade in value...i only drive it in manual mode...which actually is a lot more fun than other vehicles i tested with this feature...believe it or not..im thinking about trading up to the v6 5speed fully loaded version...i tested the verona, accord, camry,galant...the 6 won

  • Mazda Fun - 2004 Mazda Mazda6

    So far this has been a good decision; the car has enough go to feel safe and sporty. Weve had a couple of minor problems like needing an alignment and the drivers side sun visor losing tension; both we repaired under warranty with no problem. For a car that I paid <$18K it has been a great choice. My wife loves it and I enjoy driving it when we go on trips. I would recommend it without reservation. If I was buying it primarily for me then I would chose the 6 cylinder but the wife likes it because she doesnt need to fill the tank often. When I drive it I find it to have plenty of power, good handling characteristics and it is just plain fun.
