The Mazda 6 has a smooth sporty essence but it also says 4 door sedan that aunt Peg isn't going to be afraid to get into. Both from the front and back the look is appealing. You can easily fit five adults comfortably, or fold down the arm rest / cupholder in the back for four. The rear seat has car-seat tie downs that are easily accessible and the seat itself folds down if you need to load a large object into the trunk. I've had it since '05 and have had surprisingly little repairs other than scheduled maintenance. The cars a blast to drive, I have the manual transmission - If you want to give that Mustang next to you on the ramp a surprise this car fits the bill, Tight as a drum on cornering and a stiff suspension will have your passengers grabbing for the handle and looking at you like you're crazy. .

The car is sporty. It has automatic and manual mode so it can be driven according to the driver's preference. I prefer to drive it in automatic. I like that the car is spacious enough to transport 5 people without feeling too cramped. The trunk space is spacious and can carry two carry-ons and two large luggages to the airport just fine. It can also fit snowboarding gear just fine as well. In the years that I've owned this car, I've had no real problems.
