The Mazda 6 IS assembled in Flat Rock, Michigan. Yes correct,,,,but some parts come from Japan. The Tsunami tidal wave has destroyed some infrastructure, thus slowing down some parts from being delivered from Japan. You got a super great deal!!!

After reading other issues with Mazda6's... have they changed the 2010, 2011, or 2012 enough to avoid buying a bad car??? My 2007 Chrysler Pacifica just ate itself and I have 12 more payments... due to oil consumption problems that occurred between the 60-65K oil change... they know it's a lemon. But I feel like the fool because I bet the sales guy was internally laughing his ass off for buying ... Read More
http://content.usatoday.com/communities/driveon/post/2011/03/spider-infestation-- recall-web-mazda6-mazda/1 The recall of 2009 and 2010 Mazda6s is due to "a certain type of spider" that "may weave a web in the evaporative canister vent line and this may cause a restriction in the line," the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says on its website. Another 13,000 of the cars sold in Puerto Rico, Canada and Mexico are also being recalled.

The poor sales of the Mazda6 has been the subject of extensive discussion on a Mazda3 Owner/Enthusiast site that I visit regularly. There have been a lot of reasons suggested and some make more sense than others. But before I get into those, here are a few links to stories praising the Mazda6 and also pondering why it isn't selling- http://blogs.cars.com/kickingtires/2010/02/why-is-no-one-buying-the-mazda6.html http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2010/09/mazda-celebrates-building-2000000-maz- da6-cars.html Popular Mechanics did a comparison test of all ...

again...mazda spend more time on the mazda3 than the mazda6....how many commericals have you seen on tv on the mazda6...none as of now.....wow a 2011 mazda3 commercial is playing on CNN now.
If your sales figures are correct, it looks like Mazda failed with this redesign. The 2008 Camry sales were 436,617, so 2010 was down 25%, while the Mazda6 is down 32% from their 2008 sales. Keep in mind, Mazda has drastically reduced their fleet service vehicles. According to Mazda, they are putting almost 20% less cars into fleet. There were an abundace of 1st gen Mazda6's sold into fleet service. Fleet ... Read More
The redesign is NOT a fail. Mazda is failing in their ad/marketing campaign. ... Or a lack of one, in this case. I've lost count of the amount of people that ask what model of Audi or Acura that I drive, only to be blown away that it's "only" a Mazda6! If Mazda spent only 10% of the $$$$ that Toyota dumps into Camry commercials, you'd be seeing one on every ... Read More

Could have bought an I Touring for 17900 + ttl, but after seeing the small tweaks to the 2011, especially, the non-striped seats, I'm going to wait till later this year. Have you actually seen the new seat fabric in any photos or even in person? I'd be interested to hear a description and opinion on it compared to what was in the 2010. I was very tempted by several too ... Read More
Hey ddelise. It's no trouble at all.

I guess I don't really understand reviewers. The following is what I recall from my own research from all sorts of sources, so I can't provide a link. The 2009 Mazda6 is just barely smaller than the largest car in the class (the Accord). It has the biggest trunk in its class. It has the tightest turning radius in its class. Some reviewers complained that getting bigger made it less maneuverable...I ... Read More
Location of vents in the same place? You mean, one in each corner and some in the center? With the audio system below, and the HVAC controls below that? Like on almost every sedan on the road today? Note the original Mazda6's center vents are actually lower than the original Fusion's to allow for the LED display... which the Fusion doesn't have, at least not centered on the upper dash. No, ...

Just like Ford and Mazda have co-shared many mechanical pieces over the years. Escape---Tribute? That example proves my point....the Tribute and Escape are the same thing!! Very very few differences.... 1st gen Fusion and 1st gen Mazda6 had more differences then the Optima and Sonata..... Kia-Huyndai have far more in common then Ford-Mazda.
I was told the new 2011 Mazda 6 would be out in October or November of this year. Anybody else have any credible information confirming this or not?
Since the 2011 Mazda 6 isn't' supposed to be ready for sale until Spring 2011, you have a good deal. My own 2010 Mazda 6i GT was purchased almost 1 year ago, has 10,000 perfect miles on it , and has been flawless. A defect free car. Best air conditioning system for this Texas heat!
Ford definitely put a little more effort into the Fiesta, no doubt. The Mazda2 we see is virtually the same as it has been for the past couple years, outside of a few different styling cues. I will say, when sitting inside the Mazda2, it is not as cheap as it seems. It is put together very well. It could be better, though, especially with the quality of all their other ... Read More
I also had the unfortunate opportunity to see a Mazda2 in person there. After seeing a Fiesta down the road I have to say that Mazda really messed that one up.

First off, I never said they ruled them completely. For their North American Operations, Ford had a HUGE say in how they conducted business. Second, Ford had a lot of their brass in Mazda North American Operations. That is a FACT. Coming from someone who is associated with Mazda, I would know more then you. Right. That's why I told you Ford did not control them completely. Yeah, I Googled it ... Read More
The original MPV used a 3.0L Mazda V6, also for awhile a 2.5L I4.
So if Mazda had their own v6, what ever happened to it? Was it just not competitive? And so does the current Mazda 6 have a Ford engine? I was not with Mazda back in the late 90's. I do believe this is the time that Ford took controlling interest in Mazda to 33%. It had previously been 25%, I believe. I honestly do not know why the Ford sourced V6 ... Read More
So if Mazda had their own v6, what ever happened to it? Was it just not competitive? And so does the current Mazda 6 have a Ford engine?
Mazda had the original MPV back in the late '80's and I believe it had a 6 cyl. Was that a Ford engine? The first Mazda MPV was 1990 I believe, or 89, I can't remember. Mazda used a 2.5L V6, which was a Mazda engine. Mazda used a Ford 2.5L in 1999 when they made the body change, and upgraded to the 3.0L in 2002 or 2003

Please don't sit there and say Ford did everything. Ford would not have a Fusion if it were not for Mazda's engineering and development. I didn't say Ford did everything, you did! You said they ruled over Mazda completely when in truth, they didn't. They were partners and shared just about everything which is why Ford bought their controlling share. They needed one another as someone else put it. By the ... Read More
The one change Mazda most needed to make was to wipe the smile off the face of the 3, they didn't.
You make it sound like Ford was holding them back when in fact Mazda would be 6 feet under if not for FMC. By Mazda's own admission back in October 2008, the significant amount of Ford hierarchy in Mazda prevented Mazda from doing what they wanted to do. Mazda Japan and Ford America often bumped heads on product planning. Remember, not too long ago, Ford was slower then molasses when it ... Read More
"You make it sound like Ford was holding them back when in fact Mazda would be 6 feet under if not for FMC." That is very true. When Ford bought a third of Mazda it was useful to both parties. Mazda was in deep financial straits and Ford needed product help. The partnership has been successful which allowed Ford to unwind to about a 13% stake today.
While the changes are not significant, Mazda has dedicated themselves to constant refreshing since they broke away from Ford. What? Exactly how is this any different from Mazda when under Ford's "control"? They refreshed the 6 and the 3 after a couple of years in their last gen too. This is suddenly fresher now? You don't think slow sales might be a significant factor in this slight refresh? You may have ... Read More
greyghost- I have seen those pic's too. Mazda6club I believe? While the changes are not significant, Mazda has dedicated themselves to constant refreshing since they broke away from Ford. They don't want a stale product line. Something can be said for that, IMO. As I mentioned, the fuel economy is the biggest improvement for me.
Thanks a bunch! Just the information I was looking for just got a couple of questions : -Are the folding mirrors are powered? -Any news about a piano black trim? -On a GT model with nav, where would the rear view camera be if it is added to both the MID and 7 inch touch screen I went to a local dealer to see a 6s GT and the sales person ...

2011 models may be out in a month or so. Not that soon. Dealers still have no info on the 2011 Mazda6's. No order guides, changed features or prices. It looks like September/October for the 2011's.
My girlfriend has decided that Mazda6 is not for her. She drove 2011 Hyundai Sonata Limited and liked it better, though she is still leaning towards Prius. Thanks anyway, and I hope you all enjoy your Mazdas.
HOST: Who the heck at Edmunds is responsible for the model of vehicle that is pictured on the right side of the page. They are absolutely just all over the place. Here we are in the current prices paid thread for Mazda6 and there is a 2011 Mazda pictured to the right. That model will probably not be available for sale for another 6 months. It's a wonder there have been ... Read More
The new 2011 Ford Mustang GT with 412hp was just rated by the EPA at 18city/26hwy. The 272hp Mazda V6 comes in with 17city/25hwy. People on here have often commented that the reason the Mazda6 doesn't do so well is the gearing. I would imagine the Mustang is geared for a similar type of experience. Why can't Mazda get better results?
all these comparisons got me thinking, if you had to go out and buy a mid-size sedan tomorrow, what would you buy? I understand this is highly subjective but lets keep it the most updated models out there right now so that would be 2010 Fusion, Altima, Accord, Mazda-6, Passat, Legacy and Malibu plus the 2011 Camry and Sonata! Since my priority is sporty/aggressive exterior body style coupled with a comfortable ... Read More
Sonata is now the segment leader in every category. bow down to the king. My Mazda store is next to a Hyundai store, and on Saturday I had 2 people walk over after driving the new Sonata and were unimpressed. They said it drove very sloppy. The really funny thing is they both ended up buying a new Mazda6. I was very shocked at their impressions of the new Sonata, especially ... Read More
Who will come out with the next surprise? Hyundai? Mazda? Well, it won't be Mazda. The 6 was brand new for 2009, so it will be a long time before we see a new design. And the Mazda6 simply won't be able to reach the sales volumes of the Accord or Fulan. The Sonata, OTOH, is being redesigned for the 2011 MY, due out here next year. We already know it ... Read More
While I am a fellow Mazda employee, Master Certified I may add...I have to disagree with you about the FE in the CX-7. My father in law had to get rid his CX-7 because he could not get better then 21 highway, going 65mph. I will agree with the FE in the Mazda3 and Mazda6. Most everyone I talk to gets better then their EPA estimates. Oh, about that 2011 Mazdaspeed6...it's ... Read More
I've got to dispell a few things here that are just plain wrong and misguided. First, I'm a master certified Mazda Salesperson and inventory manager at my dealership. Been with Mazda for almost three years, had two first gen mazda 6's and wife has a cx-7. Okay, here we go... A. Fuel Economy. Mazda owners. Raise you hands. Okay, what's the 2009 standard EPA rating on your car? (I'm just gonna ... Read More
I am previous owner of a 2005 mazda6 i sport edition. I have read many reviews of the new 2009 Mazda6 and I think it will be a huge success. Mazda improved on all the areas the Mazda6 needed improvement. From size to power. Currently I drive a 2008 Honda Accord. My plan is to purchase the 2011 Mazda6. Forever lives ZOOM-ZOOM!
The pictures of the interior I saw from the up close spy photos, which looked identical to the JDM/euro Mazda6, with the exception of the steering wheel. The steering wheel seems to be taken from the CX-9. I have not seen official photos yet, however, I'm sure I will get them soon before the rest of you. As for no mtx in the V6, for MY2009, Mazda will not offer it. ... Read More
It amazes me that a person can see a couple of pictures and read a press release and instantly make a decision on what they are going to buy two years from now. The Mazda6 in 2011 could have 5 doors and/or wagon styles. It could have manual in the V6. It could still have great handling even though it is a couple inches bigger. If a company is constantly told ... Read More
