Lots of spirit

2021 Mazda 6 Sport 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl 6A)

The is a well-balanced vehicle. I find my Mazda 6 Sport to be an enjoyable sedan to drive on the highway and especially on twisty rural roads. The design is very thoughtful and reflects the highest level of Japanese style. I buy a vehicle to drive, and electronic gizmos related to music are less relevant to me. I have the standard 2.5 engine, and it has lots of punch. I think the boy racers need to get a grip on it and go elsewhere if they just want to go fast. This is my third Mazda in recent years and it is the best for long road trips. It rivals my old 2.0 Mazda 3 on rural roads, but is far quieter without the road rumble. Fuel mileage is impressive. This is a car that performs far above its class .I feel great every time I get behind the wheel. Now about those silly Mazda ads...bring back Zoom Zoom!

One of the best four-door sedan’s on the market today. Mazda nailed it. Tight steering. smooth ride. fun to drive. Great looking car inside and out. A lot of bang for your buck.

Best economy sedan for the long haul

I wanted a comfortable, reliable car that would be inexpensive to run, and not a penalty box to drive... and the (now discontinued) Mazda6 sedan delivers. I'm getting 35mpg plus on regular gas on the highway and 28-30mpg around town. Four people can travel comfortably, and the ride is compliant and relaxed, but with enough sport and zoom-zoom for enjoyable back-road forays. Our Mazda6 is one level above the base, so for less than $28k we get a naturally aspirated and responsive engine that isn't constantly pulling timing under full acceleration, unlike the turbo version. Without the added complexity of the turbo and with a proven reliable engine with a long production history, we expect to get a decade or more of low-hassle performance. It's not an SUV or a jacked-up truck, so there's that too. Only negatives, the horrible infomatics (but Car Play works well) and sound quality sucks. A bit of wind and tire noise at high speeds. And that's it. Just a good car, nothing special here, but something that will last and continue to work from one of the industry's top-rated brands. "Nuff said"

2021 Mazda 6 Signature 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

2021 Signature with turbocharged engine. Legally tinted all 5 windows 33% If you have a GT Mazda 6 and you more. Buy the Signature, don't skip this 2021 Mazda6 it is going to be a classic!, This car is the best of all vehicle worlds. A single mature man like myself, 6 tall and only hit my head once leaning in the drivers seat checking out features on the car. I do drive with the seat all the way back rright now, but I only have 98 miles on the car. Its so nice to look at and sit in, (especially the back seat I found, even behind my drivers seat) if I don't recline my seat much. Tons of storage for a single or couple, even with small kids ( I seal the owner's manual in a freezer bag and put it in the trunk, on the spare tire. Bottle holders on each door, two holders between the front seats, I leave the back seat middle bottle holders down because I can easily with my long arms reach around and grab my drinking bottle from the back, which free up more front storage space especially with they empty glove box! I did not see but a handful Mazda 6 signature sedans in Atlanta avalible. If 36,000 is in your budget to buy a new car and you want a sedan that feel like a luxury sports car, with SUV tendencies, by living down the backseat expanding trunk space. I would say buy this car before they are gone because you don't see a lot of them on the road as it is but it's a BUY!
