Replying to: mitchflorida (Jul 24, 2009 8:22 pm) But...the only warranty repair so far is I had a check engine light once, which was (I think) a purge valve that was replaced. They also updated the ECU one time, when I said it seemed like the automatic shifted too early under light acceleration and this change also seemed to fix a problem with the A/C cutting out at idle with the brakes on. |

For fun, I checked the price of a top of the line Hyundai Sonata with Leather, moonroof, Infiniti stereo, bluetooth, fully loaded V6 is selling now for $21,529, with rebates. The comparable Grand Touring V6 is at $26,483. And of course a 3 year warranty vs. a 5 year warranty. Mazda6 sales are down 50 percent from last year, and that was with the old model that was on its way out. Mazda will have to cut their prices I think to compete in this very competitve segment. The consumers have spoken.

Mazda6 s Grand Touring: $28,390 18" alloy wheels, P235/45 R18 W-rated a/s tires, Leather-trimmed seats, Heated front seats, Dual zone automatic climate control, Bose audio system, Welcome lighting system. The 2010 Mazda6 s will give you a choice of 17 or 18 inch wheels. I honestly think that that the 17 inch tires might give you a better less bumpy ride than the 18 inch version. It may not handle as well on the racetrack, but for day to day driving, the 17s might be more comfortable. That has been my experience, anyway. Some reviews have said that the 18 inch low-profile tires give too firm of a ride, feeling every road imperfection. .. |
