What is it? How do you get it? |

The Auto Show discount is being offered by a bunch of auto makers. I think they have certain quotas they try to make while the show is in a particular area. They in return get discounts on the price they pay for the cars in the first place. These discounts or how ever they work it out must be significant enough for them to offer the consumer the $500 extra to get the sale, and still bank a larger profit for the dealer. You do not have to go to the show to get this. But there is a time limit on the offer. Being cheesehead6,are you from the Milw. area? (NO cheesehead jokes please! WE have heard them all!). I still have not gotten over that 4th and 26. The show ends this weekend. Don't know were it will be moving next. I know the discounts will get better at the end of the year but I want to enjoy the car this summer. If I kept waiting for the best deal I probably never would buy the damn car. Good luck if your in the market ! Be sure to get a recent build date !!! |

Thanks for this. Don't remind me of what happened to the Packers this year... They should have gone further. But I have to be honest: after watching Brady and the Pats, the Packers could never have won the S. Bowl even if they had gotten there. Is it a coupon that you pick up at the show? Or do you just ask the dealer? I live about 65 miles from Milwaukee. Maybe too far from the city for the discounts to apply? Gonna try to make the show this weekend anyway just to look around. |

You are probably right. But with Brett at the helm we had a chance. The Pack was hot. You never know ! Oh well, At least the Eagles got their butts kicked !!! I think you are O.K. I don't think it matters where you live. But I think you need to buy from one of the dealers in the area here. Ask at the show if you go, or make a few calls. Remember it does not matter where you buy your car. Any warranty work can be done at a dealer closer to you. Enjoy the show. Get a look at the 2005 Ford Mustang. WOW !!! If I didn't need 4 doors the 6 never would have stood a chance ! |

I moved from a Suburban to a 6, so I can relate to your situation. I am a foot taller than you, but I have had no significant problems with rear visibility with the spoiler - it just took a little time to get used to seeing it there. The option packaging has been a source of irritation for many - you will see lots of complaints on the Mazda 6 boards. I didn't mind, since I wanted all the options. I would have hated it if I had preferred being selective about options. I think Mazda should at least offer safety options individually. With respect to leather, I have leather seats and I like them - no complaints from any passengers. The heated seats are a plus with leather in the winter! I read lots of complaints early on about the quality control on the cloth seats - Mazda may have corrected those problems by now. I love my 6 - I think it's one of the best cars available ay a very reasonable price. Good luck with your shopping. |

I'm curious...how did you go from a Suburban to a MZ6?? That is a switch we don't see to often |
|
| Here is something I don't think anyone has talked about. Mazda is planning a Mazda6 based SUV to be bigger than the Tribute but smaller than an Explorer that will be priced in the $30-40K range. I suspect it will be a variant of the Lincoln SUV that is going to be built off the MZ6 platform. It is expected to appear for the 2006 model year. | |
| Yes, Ford will also be getting a version of this vehicle as well. Look for 3 row seating, FWD/AWD with Duratec35 (3.5L DOHC V6) engine. Consider it a Highlander/Pilot target. | |
| that sound like the Ford Freestyle? | |
