#16146 of 17805 Great car... greater discussion by hboyd Feb 13, 2004 (4:24 pm)
Glad to see this board showing positive feelings about the 6. I have the same feelings toward my '01 Protege ES... three years ago and now! This why I am waiting for the debut of the 6 sport wagon [sigh]. Looks like a lot of R&D went into this vehicle.   Good to see a company standing behind their product and making things right. Sadly, mistakes were made by humans in the assembly stage and possibly some R&D.

I had 01 Protege ES 5sp before my 03 6i. That was a really nice car. I really like my 6, but I should've waited a little longer before I bought one.

I love my 6s MT. It's not quite a 330i -- my friend's car -- but IMO it's about as close as you can get with FWD under $30K . . . and rides better. It's been trouble-free, is a blast to drive, and still gets admiring glances over a year after the car debuted.

I've had to test drive numerous cars, and I myself dislike FWD cars, but this is definately the most neutral feeling, best handling, best responding FWD car I've driven. And it just begs to be thrown into curves, and quickly composes itself when doing so. If anything, someone might feel TOO confident with the vehicle.

I have a 6s MT and sound like a broken record while singing its praises. I've owned it for 8 months now. Aside from some "staining" in the right rear door sill, I have not had a single problem. The car is still tight as a vault, with zero squeaks or rattles. I don't even use the stereo, because I love to hear the engine rev. Mine is a non-sport version, and the ride/handling compromise is perfect for me. You'll find criticism on other forums about the Michelin Energy tires that come standard on the non-sport 6 and some other sedans. Well, they work just fine on this car -- makes me think the tires aren't the problem for the others!   I compared this car to the Passat and TSX. Both have nicer interiors than the 6 (especially the Passat), but neither is as engaging to drive IMHO. I recently had the chance to drive a friend's TSX while she drove my 6. I think we both came away satisfied that we had chosen the right car.   The 6 is not for everyone. But if you're looking for a practical sport sedan, it is an excellent choice.   CL
