I noticed the pricing for the 2009 Mazda6 is up at Edmunds.com. The SV with 6 speed and standard ESC starts at just $19,220, invoice about $1000 under that. Once the rebates hit (and they will eventually due to the competitiveness of the mid-sized market), one should be able to get one for around $17k + T&L, maybe less.  Anyone seen or driven a 2009 Mazda6 yet?

Replying to: backy (Jul 13, 2008 4:03 pm) Also, I don't know if this has been mentioned or not, but I remember reading somewhere than the SV model is pretty much like the Altima 2.5BASE (not the S) in that it will be stick shift only, special order only and it won't have the trip computer, remote keyless entry or cruise control standard. I'm guessing the SV model will be difficult to find. Most will probably stock the Sport (which I don't think will be a huge seller either) Tourings and Grand Tourings. Aviboy, any idea how the product mix for the new 6 will turn out? Which trim is projected to sell the best? I'm willing to bet its the Touring models. I'm waiting for it to debut since it's basically on my list of family sedans to consider. I'm more interested in the i Touring and Grand Touring sedans though.

Replying to: backy (Jul 13, 2008 6:09 pm) I'm wondering what Nissan is gonna do with the Altima. If Nissan follows tradition, we'll be seeing the facelifted Altima at Chicago in Feb. There are already rumors about the changes expected to take place on the 2010 Camry (LED's at the rear, available factory XM, wider variety of push button start, revised interior with better materials and facelifted front and rear) so I'm eager to see what Nissan does to the Altima. Hopefully it'll get LEDs, revised better wheels and Stability control standard, along with some adjustable rear headrest too. I can't believe Nissan still doesn't utilize adjustable rear headrest on the Altima.

Replying to: backy (Jul 14, 2008 7:56 am) AWD can increase safety in inclement weather - I guess the other mfrs just don't care enough about safety to put that in their midsize sedans. |
