Many features but I reckon that the price is too high. Also, it does not have the look of my lancer!

Personally, I don't really fancy Mr.Smiley face on the grill of the new Mazdas.. other than that, it's great except for another thing.. THE PRICE! Sigh..

The Mazda 6 (called the Atenza in Japan) has scored the 5-star maximum rating in the European New Car Assessment Programme (Euro NCAP) 2009 combined safety performance test. The 2009 performance test combines scores achieved in 4 areas - Adult Occupant Protection, Child Protection, Pedestrian Protection and Safety Assist and is more stringent compared to the tests of the previous years.
Mazda6s maximum safety rating from Euro NCAP is a reflection of the progress Mazda has made in harmonizing driving pleasure with safety and environmental performance under our Sustainable Zoom-Zoom plan. Going forward, we will strive to fulfill our corporate social responsibilities by further advancing Mazdas eco-friendly and safety technologies, said Seita Kanai, Mazda senior anaging executive officer in charge of R&D and Program Management.
Some other Mazda vehicles have also gone through Euro NCAP testing albeit the old version of the crash test framework. The Mazda 5 and Mazda 2 were tested in 2005 and 2007 respectively and both scored 5-stars for Adult Occupant Protection rating.

Few days ago, i had the pleasure to drive the M6 2.5SVT white color which 3 weeks old only with 20xx km clocked only. Damned! Im impressed and in LUV now with this car. The owner sumore added in a 12" Epsilon sub-woofer with2 channel MBQ amp to power it. The sound is exactly what i would prefer in a car.
The NVH is excellent and the torque is much better than my LGT! Wah! I like everything abt this car, seat, dash, meter , ICE, xenon, push start but hate the boot space and headroom! Kena poison ady! So ppl...................BUY M6
Next car in 12 mths will likely be this ady............ will get rid of the VIOS to buy this since its fully paid.

I have started driving the M6 again after 6 months absence. Been driving the lancer more.
Its a good car and I think you know how it feels after the test drive. Top speed 235kmh (at the minimum). Acceleration is the opposite of the lancer i.e. slow and steady.
There are no problems with it, servicing it is not costly too, on par with the lancer. But if you intend to modify it for performance, you may be dissapointed since modification parts and accessories are abit rate in M'sia.
