Used 2005 Mazda 6 s Sport 4dr Sports Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 5M) Consumer Reviews
Move over Maxima
Car is a lot of fun to drive. In sales, my car is my desk and this car fits the bill. Map lights (front and back). My kids love to read and the lights don't interfere with my vision. Storage compartment in front dash is very convenient. Car has plenty of pep and the manual shifting is slick when you want to play. I had two Maximas before this and this car is in the same league.
Very under-rated by pro reviewers
This car has it all!! It is totally maxed out in terms of accessories, mostly all standard, not like in other cars in the mid-size range, especially American manufactured cars. We have the leather package with Bose and moonroof, and I can't say enough about how comfortable it is. It's a real thrill to drive, acceleration is tops, and handles like a high-priced sports car. Doesn't have the "sedan" look of other cars in it's class. We tried the Optima, Accord, Camry, and Passat, and none can match this great package.

Slick Car, Great Comfort and Best Buy
Car is designed and handles like a slick-looking sports car. Ride is quiet and handling is tight. Interior layout is wonderful with ergonomics that rival high end luxury cars. Instrumentation is accented with nice red backlighting and slick looking silver trim. The 5 speed shifting is smooth and acceleration is quick and nimble. Storage space is plentiful especially with the rear seats folded down. This car is well built and is the car for people wanting a sports car for a family. A best buy!
Fun, Fun, Fun
Here is a car that you want to drive. Sporty handling with a sedan comfort. Good value for the money.
Sharp handling, no grunt
After driving a Camaro Z28 and various sportbikes I am shocked to see that a family-hauler can handle this well. Smooth (manual) shifter. The front wheel drive is a little disappointing and there's virtually no torque below 3000RPM but all in all it is an excellent package at a very good price. Dealers are willing to let it go several thousands less MSRP (mine was about MSRP-$8000 - what a steal!). Highly recommended if you don't absolutely need RWD.
