Mazda’s high-performance sedan, the Mazdaspeed6, will not continue as a 2008 model. The wagon version of the Mazda6 is another casualty of Mazda’s thinning 2008 lineup. Both were popular among a small niche of fans but didn’t find a wide audience. Mazda is also trimming the current Mazda6 lineup because the model will be significantly redesigned for 2009. The 2008 Mazda6 sedan and hatchback will get a tire pressure monitoring system standard for 2008, but little else has changed. A Bose stereo system is standard in the Touring trim level, 17-inch wheels are standard on the i Sport trim and there’s a standard alarm system on the Sport VE and Touring trims. |

Sad to hear the loss of the wagon. It was crippled from the start with only a large engine that used too much gas (same as my Sienna minivan). It would have been my first choice (by a wide margin) if it had an efficient 4-cyl engine. Funny how companies will sell a limited model and then wind up cutting it because of no intrest. Like a self fulfilling prophecy. I do enjoy my Accord, but sure would like to have a wagon. I can get 40 mpg with the Accord (best for a 500+ mile trip is 43.8) and I am not willing to consider a V-6 that would bring that number way down. |

That is a nice looking wagon. So sad they are dropping it just as wagons are gaining traction here. Maybe they need to glue on some plastic and call it a (fill in the blank)UV. I wish they would put a diesel in the wagon and call it an EUV (economy utility vehicle).
