Overview & Reviews
The Mazda 6 is mostly unchanged for 2008. The Sport Wagon model has been discontinued, leaving only two body styles, and the Touring and Grand Touring can now only be equipped with the six-speed automatic. Minor feature adjustments, such as larger wheels for the Sport trim and a standard Bose audio system for the Touring, round out the changes.
- Fun to drive, smooth power delivery, attractive design inside and out, availability of versatile hatchback body style.
- Engines are less powerful and fuel efficient than competitors, tight rear seat accommodations, stability control not available.

WOW! - 2008 Mazda Mazda6
By jlynreid - August 8 - 5:30 amWhile it may be a bit premature having just bought the car a week ago... but WOW is all I can think to say. Beautiful on the inside & out. Comfortable, roomy, classy, smooth ride... everything within reach. I researched cars for 2 months prior before finally settling on the Mazda 6 & fell in love as soon as I got in. Drives as beautifully as the Volvo S40. 24.5 miles per gallon (city) & Miami traffic is constant stop & go. Im completely impressed with this car. I love it!

WOW!!! - 2008 Mazda Mazda6
By Jim - June 6 - 4:03 am....and I thought you had to buy a GM car to get such a soft ride. Superb handling. Smooth acceleration with the V6. Now I get the Zoom Zoom thing. Great driving experience. Not one rattle so far. What a car!!

2007 mazda 6 saved our lives - 2008 Mazda Mazda6
By flatsider - April 13 - 11:45 amMarch 26, I385 north taveling at 65-68 mph,we were hit with basically a high speed pit manuver which put us in a spin off the interstate,down and up an imbankment through a chainlink fence across a frontage road and back into the fence and a pine tree.It completly totalled the car and we walked away with just minor brusies and a little whiplash,not a scratch.The suprising thing was no air bags deployed as we didnt strike anything with the front of the car.Im convinced the car saved our lives.We have since purchased another 6 and waiting on delievery.Great car!

Pure Adrenalin! - 2008 Mazda Mazda6
By Walter from Texas - January 7 - 9:06 pmThis is my 2nd review for this car. Its been great, the engine is smooth and responsive. The car remains a blast to drive. The 2.3 liter is responsive and economical. I am averaging around 25 mpg in mixed city and highway driving and 29.5 mpg on an 800 mile trip. You will not win any races at the stoplight against a Mustang GT, but on the highway is where this car really shines. I find myself looking for roads with alot of curves. This car takes corners like its on rails. I have also found myself, many times driving on triple digits, without realizing it. Comfort, speed, fun, economy and pure adrenalin, all rolled up into one.
