Amazing Fuel economy. I consistently get 1100ks per tank. (5-6l/100k). This is mixed city/hwy driving. Very quiet for a Diesel. Cant even hear anything when inside the cabin when car is running. From outside definately sounds different to a petrol, but sounds nothing like old school Diesels. Tourque is unbelievable, if you need that extra bit of beef to pass someone on the open road, the MZR-CD will definately come to the party. You will not be dissapointed. Bose sound system - standard on hatch (as well as leather interior) has an unbelievabl...Read more

I have recently just got my first car, in my short list I was going for a Lancer VRX, Honda accord Euro, Mazda 3 sp2 and Camry sportivo. To be honest I was really leaning towards the Lancer side until I happened to stumble on a Mazda 6 classic sports hatch this weekend. With its stylish headlights and body shape, this is one of those cars that just shout out “Hey look at me”. Inside the car you will find a full set of leather seats, an even more stylish dashboard and sunroof as standard. The car offers plenty of headroom for all your passengers...Read more

Despite the things I don't like the Mazda 6 is a nice car - both to own and to drive. I do not regret owing it and am about to pass it onto my son. I fed all of my issues back to Mazda for no affect! I am not buying another Mazda 6 - this is more due to the latest model being virtually identical to what I have - for the money I am sure I can now do better. I would have thought there would be something changed in 4 years other than 6 gears on the manual and some minor colour changes on the console.
Comfortable. Great cargo are in the hatc...Read more

For the luxury model, which costs around $45K am very impressed. I would buy one again given the chance. Very highly recommended however the engine needs to be turbocharged or larger to get a more sporty vehicle.
Build quality, inclusions such as climate control air con, trip computer, full complement of airbags, leather trim in luxury model and above all a QUIET drive with excellent handling. The best mecahcical feature is the renowned 'activematic' sportshift gearbox. Apparently Mazda are the best in the business when it comes to gearboxes an...Read more

Quite good although let down by modern Mod Cons available in other Japanese cars of similar standard. If you after someting simple and has reasonable resale value then look at the Mazda. If you want modern techknowlegy....look at VW Passat, Subaru Legacy, Audi etc.
Great car with excellent styling. The new Mazda platform (Mazda 2,3,6,7) has really done well in sales and thier marketing team has done extremely well. They really hit the target here in OZ. The design of the Mazda 6 is terrific with lots of storage space inside the cabin. Plenty of...Read more

Overall, this is an amazing car. Plays the role of a family sedan when required, but takes on hotted up boy racers or V6's no probs. Handling is amazing and overall, this is just a pleasure to drive. Maybe a hatch would have been nice for functionality, but perhaps the chassis would not have been able to handle it. You can get used to the clutch quite quickly if you're stepping out of an auto, but may take longer if coming out of a manual. Honestly, I've driven many, many cars from 1.3L city run abouts to pure sports cars & I can't think o...Read more

I love our Mazda 6. When we were looking for our new car, I didn't want just an ordinary looking wagon, it had to look a bit sporty and different, not just a boring white wagon full of kids. We have a dark blue (purple in the right light) Mazda 6 with black leather interior and tinted windows. It's a decent size car and doesn't feel too big - I was used to driving small hatches and this wagon didn't feel like driving a tank. This car is a fantastic car to drive, and one I am proud to be seen getting out of ;o)
* Love the colour, it's not just a...Read more

++++ EXCELLENT ++++ value for money, combining safety features, my first priority with comfort and road holding ability. Then how you feel in the car,safe and sure it will perform to your requirements.
Interior comfort level,climate and cruise control, both easy to use and more responsive than other late model vehicles I have driven. Overall, the Classic 6 has exceeded my expectations as at the present time.
Would give the car a score of 9 out of 10.

If any person wishes to contact me I will return reply

So far we have been to Merribula, Sydney and Cooma in varying weather conditions and the car performed beautifully.

We are a family of four and there is plenty of room in the back for my twin five year olds. Extras such as the climate control and power windows are real safety items as it ensures the girls are comfortable and safe.

The only doubt i have is whether the Euro Accord handles better - but it would have to be really great to beat this car!!
The car feels like it wants to go. It's really responsive and the handling is sure, even...Read more

Picked it over Honda Accord for style,
This vehicle supplies what an average family need, flexability space and performance. Petrol efficiency is only achieved with moderate driving styles, but for a sporty relief, give it a go and even with midrange kW power, it goes. A great purchase without a doubt.
Style space & cruising speeds are good, overtaking is zippy & it's still a striking car
With a quick 1st Gear jump, it does exaxtly that JUMPS, and pulls wildly, needing a bit of moderation for launch speed addicts.Blind spots are a LARGE CONCER...Read more

It was my first brand new car so I can be biased, however I think it is really good value for money. Lots of safety features (in current model even more), little luxuries (cruise control, climate control etc), confortable seats overall 9 out of ten.
I have bought Mazda6 Wagon 4 years ago. Done around 80,000 Km, travel all over victoria (including mountains in winter) (living in melbourne), few times to Sydney and Canberra, once across to Perth and back. Here are my pros:very good road handling, reasonably quiet while travalling around speed lim...Read more
