MAZDA 6 *pics*














------------------------------------------------------------

I think it looks good.. The rear aint that attractive though..
Honda's styling department is gonna have to wake its ass up.. Cause most of the other japs are starting to look real good.

That's interesting, and I actually like the way it looks. There's something sporty about it, though I agree that the rear end has something to be desired.

Thanks for posting those pics.

Not bad. But the specs on it could be better. 2.3L 176HP & a 3.0L 215HP

With that much displacement, you'd think the numbers would be higher.

a while after it's production, one of the leading body kit manufacturers (wings west, kaminari, etc.) will make somethin' to shape up that rear end. i suggest a rear vallance that's as aggressive as the front end, and side skirts to tie 'em together.

that would be in the same class with the accord doesn' it ? well look at the accords:

2.3l 150hp
3.0l 200hp

honda really needs to take their head from their asses and get some nice numbers from their engines.

it may look good but tsk tsk to mazda, i wouldn't say honda has to wake up. they have some of the best profromance to looks ratio as any car company out there! honda leads the way bro, best van, smallest most powerful engine in products (s2000), they make the nicest motor bikes, not to mention all their other amazing cars... honda rules! end of story no one touches honda!

mazda mp3 ? hmmm are you talking about mx3 thou ? Well let me tell you but mazda has some real nice engines. the only problem is that they have some problems with the auto tranny.

mt.biker.. THe mp3 is a very fine piece of work.. Good construcion and well designed.. Its performance aint good you say?? It runs 8.4 in the 0-60.. Not so good, ok.. But in the slalom it'll finish off the other cars in its category..

I think thats pretty decent.


Performance to look ratio.. Tell me, do you like the new civics? They aint that fast, 9.8 and 7.5(Si)... With a suspension that sucks beyond your imagination.. I'm not liking the exterior design either..

The Accords are cool. But they are starting to lack in the performance departement (lets only consider the V6). Obviously it aint a performance car.. But atleast to keep up with the competition.

Prelude.. terminated..

Odyssey.. They rule, probably the best miniV out there.

S2000. Very nice car. But is this model being sold in big volume?? Generating the greater portion of the profit for Honda sales.. I dont think so..

Honda IS going down the tubes.

I think the Mazda 6 is bad as hell.. Even tho the stock numbers are that impressive, all this dispacement will really help on FI applications Look out.. There maybe a new Mazda Rave starting.

I think he was talking about the Mazda MPV Van! Not the Protege MP3...

IMO Mazda's are ok but the older Honda's are better.
