Replying to: aviboy97 (Apr 21, 2009 9:58 am)  Can you elborate on that for me Aviboy? I guess if i want a loaded Touring or Grand Touring with a stick shift I'd better act before all the 09s are gone...or else get an Accord b/c I don't want an Automatic GT and I'm not crazy about the cloth inside the Mazda6. |

Replying to: aviboy97 (Apr 21, 2009 9:58 am) What about the cloth/leather combination trim, is it a goner, too?

Replying to: maxamillion85 (Apr 24, 2009 6:50 pm) In all fairness, I'd be willing to bet that the '09 i Grand Touring had the lowest 'take' rate on the 6MT. It still surprises me that Honda offers the Accord EX-L with the 5MT. 2008 was the last year you could get a Ford Fusion SEL 4-cylinder with the 5MT, too. I just keep imagining how much fun a 6-speed manual would be with the 3.7L V6 in the MZ6 s models! I doubt I'll ever see that happen, though. While they're shaking everything up, I wonder if they might redesign the 17" alloy wheel pattern? Am I the only one that just really doesn't like it? Especially compared to the gorgeous 18" on the s Touring and Grand Touring! |

Replying to: igozoomzoom (Apr 25, 2009 8:03 am) I agree about the design. Those 18" alloys are beautiful!! However, if you read my post a little closer, you will see that the 18"s are now reserved for the s GT only...bummer... If the 17" design were the same as the 18", I would be thrilled....but....we are stuck with the "Snow Flake" ones...

Replying to: igozoomzoom (Apr 25, 2009 8:03 am) I'm not crazy about the 16s or 17s on the Mazda6. I'd be inclined to go aftermarket or see what kind of deal I could get on the 18s at the dealer.

Replying to: maxamillion85 (Apr 26, 2009 7:52 am) They introduced the MAZDASPEED6 with 6-speed manual at about the same time...hardly a coincidence! They didn't want the V6/manual to steal any SPEED6 sales! On new mid-size sedans, the Altima SE is the only major player offering a manual with V6! I'd love to see the 272hp 3.7L V6 in the '09 Mazda6 s offered with a 6-speed manual....it'll never happen, though... Honda really surprised me when they introduced the Accord EX V6 6MT Sedan in '06! I recently ran across an '07 with 20k miles for about $3k under TMV and it was tempting. |

Replying to: aviboy97 (Apr 21, 2009 9:58 am) So the S Sport model is gone? Only the S Touring Plus and S Grand Touring remain? The push-button start is not available on the S Touring Plus, and only with the Technology Package on the S GT? Moonroof is standard on both S models? Thanks. |
