What is the lowest any of you have gotten an M6i Touring for or Grand Touring recently? I need to buy one within the next week or so and I've been researching like crazy, and I wanted to see if getting the i Touring w/ Moon & Bose system / Auto Tranny for $20,000 is doable?

Replying to: mazda6s (Jan 16, 2003 10:47 am) I have had my RX-8 since it was new in October of 2005 and have had no problems and great dealership service, but it's not practical, even with the quad doors, because it's a manual, and space is tight given everything that I have to pack in my car when I have 'baby duty.' I love Mazda because their cars have so much more personality and sporty flavor than camcords. The new 6 is much more spacious, and I think the interior looks fantastic compared to the last gen. The fuel economy is pretty good on the 4 banger, especially given the weight of the vehicle, and the fender flares kind of grow on you, especially if you are coming from a car like the RX-8. I was wondering if anyone has seen pricing near the 16k mark for the base i automatic, not including TTL? I don't really need leather, nav, auto climate control, and the base i is actually pretty well loaded. I'm not prepared to pay up for a lot of extras given the state of the economy and given that the 6 has never had quite the resale value of the Camry or Accord. Thanks in advance for any replies.

I qualify for S-Plan, Tier 1 Supplier Discount, plus Mazda loyalty. I was hoping to get an automatic value edition i for around 16k that has an MSRP of $18,465. I am tempted to upgrade the cloth seats with aftermarket leather through a fantastic local shop I know, as the Mazda leather has not exactly received rave reviews. Does anyone know if or when they're planning on releasing a Speed6 version?

Replying to: mikemartin (Apr 18, 2009 12:12 am) Like I said, I don't know where you are located or if you are willing to travel but the dealership is Rick Case Mazda in Duluth, Georgia and it was an internet special back when I was looking at vehicles last month. Larry Russell is the contact person for internet sales. You should be able to find the necessary contact info online. You mentioned concerns about Mazda leather. This is my first experience with Mazda. I'd love to hear more about the problems people have had with it. Please elaborate.

Replying to: ambrosia (Apr 18, 2009 9:41 am) Thanks for the responses. Yes, I'm willing to travel, especially if I can work a purchase into a vacation or business trip. I've seen some dealers in Maryland and Texas with the base i automatic for an eyelash over 16k, and like I said, Mazda packed even the base 6 with so many features standard, the base car really is a value proposition in its class. I happened to notice that Toyota is aggressively discounting the Camry lately, and I'll bet Honda will follow suit soon if they haven't already with the Accord. A competitive sector seemed to get a lot more competitive with the arrival of the new Mazda 6, the Altima, the Sonata and the Chevy Malibu an Ford Fusion. I think the Fusion and the Mazda6 are by far the sportiest of the bunch. |

Replying to: mz6greyghost (Apr 18, 2009 11:48 am) Sad but true. I think the "Speed6" is actually now the "Fusion Sport." The Fusion sport has a 3.5 vs the slightly smaller V6 in the Mazda and regular Fusion. I think it also has goofy paddle shifters and a slushbox. From an earlier comment...why does transmission type play into available space? The Mazda6 is one of a handful of mid-size sedans available with a manual.

Replying to: lilengineerboy (Apr 19, 2009 4:01 am) Don't think that was meant. Believe the poster was just listing the different (unrelated) reasons for a trade to more "family friendly" vehicle. You can still row with a family but it does free up a hand for other duties. Also, isn't the V-6 in the 09 Mazda6 3.7L vs. the 3.5L in the Fusion Sport?
