I just test drove this car, and frankly it looks faster than it drives. I took out the v6 auto (manual not avail.) and was disappointed with the overall pickup. I drive a 99 TL, with 220HP and it seemed to have much better power off the line, and from 30-60mph. Perhaps the TL feels more touchy when I hit the gas, but the Mazda had a slow response when flooring it, and never seemed to feel "peppy or jumpy".
M6 fun

Excellent it is the best value in the market for a sedan. It easily eclipses the camry, accord, al;tima, galant ect in every imagionable catagory. It is more comparable with the 3 series sedans or acura's. Thanks Mazda!
Look Out Altima!!

I test drove the Nissan Altima 4 cylinder and then went and looked at the Mazda 6 for the sake of comparison. Once I test drove the 6 I took it home. This car has the best handling and engine performance of any mid-sized sports sedan out there and Nissan is in big trouble! The interior design of the 6 is incredible, much better than the Altima's, and you get a lot more car for less money too!
Good Value

I bought this car used at about 23k miles; now at 72k. I like the 2003 options because you can get a moonroof unbundled with other options. Reliable; only issue was a throttle body sensor I replaced out-of-warranty with a salvaged part for $120. Only drawbacks are dash and trim rattles and buzzes; I stuffed some wood pieces under the dash align pins which really helped but the center console (all plastic) makes noise and there's some kind of buzz in the B-pillar area occasionally (hence build quality = 4). Sun visors will weaken if you clip a garage opener on them.

I have had my 6 for three years now and love it. Besides brake and caliper issues it has had no problems. It is fun to drive and handles wonderfully. I would suggest this car to anyone wanting a family car with a fun factor.
