2007 Mazda MAZDA6 Reviews, Pricing & Specs

Performance: What you would expect acceleration wise from a 4 cylinder car that weighs 3275 lbs. Brakes are near flawless and the chassis feels like its connected to your brain with every response Build quality: Could be better, but also could be much worse. its not gonna fall apart or anyhting, just some trim panels that could fit better and an occasional odd squeak or rattle from the suspension or interior. For the price you could do much worse. Appearance: Definetly on the aggressive side, but not to the point of boy racer. Elegant but styleish but not overdone. The interior is laid out very well with verry user firendly controls. Cost to own: Fuel economy is decent but nothing spectacular. Very reliable cars if you keep up on the maintenence. Costs are about the indistry average to maintain. Fun Factor: Its a Mazda, fun is what they build they're cars forDec 13, 2009

This is my latest purchase, Mazda6 GT V6 2007. This car comes fully loaded with BOSE system, 6 CD changer in dash, leather interior, heated seats / mirrors name it all, climatronic climate control,electronic tinted rear view mirror and more. The V6 is ok, far from being a quick V6 when you compare with the competition and quite a gas guzzler. Overall it's ok to drive, very smooth. I owned a 2006 Mazda3 GT just before and I got this 6 as an upgrade, also knowing that Mazda's are very reliable cars. They are fun to drive and they offer a lot of options for what you pay. Repair wise, aside from a cracked oil pan from being low ... can't say nothing. The added mods are as follow : Full TEIN basic coilover kit, CF eyelids, wingless, shaved door moldings, tinted windows, ORION sound system, 18 inch Enkei LS/5 with 215/40/18 akina ST-09 tires now changed, 6000K front HID with JDM yellow fog lights, brand new JDM front lip ( at the paint shop ) I also had clear sidemarkers, full Magnaflow dual catback but had to remove them cause of tickets and stupid MTL laws. That's about it for my 2LO Mazda6.Nov 21, 2009

It's a great sports sedan overall! Acceleration with the 4-cylinder model isn't brisk, but it is still more than adequate in traffic. Braking and handling are excellent. Although there are many great choices in this class, I still think the styling of the first-generation 6 holds its own against competitors. The build quality is solid overall, albeit with a few fit and finish concerns. Overall, it is a very fun-to-drive and economical sports sedan, and after two years of ownership, I'm still very happy with it!Oct 23, 2009

I bought the Mazda Sportwagon (it's a station wagon!) because I needed the space for an active family of four and didn't want a SUV or family van. the only choices was from Mazda or Volkwagen. I was replacing my VW passat which had died on me (timing belt snaped). I steered away from VW Passat wagon because I was tired of paying premium for parts (VW parts are significantly more money, but I’m not reviewing the Passat here). I have owned the Mazda for two years now (50km to date). The Sportwagon has all the space we need. We are an outdoors family, and the wagon combined with a Thule box provides plenty of room for our needs. Performance - This is my first automatic transmission car and I miss the immediate response of a stick, however the car does have good acceleration (it’s a Ford 3L V6), and it does have a manual mode (just don't forget it’s in manual mode or you might find yourself red lining on a highway on-ramp and the automatic engine kill engaging). Handling is acceptable, nothing exciting here. The GT package includeds 18” wheels which help with cornering, but also make for a rough ride. The car also has a tendency to follow ruts in the road. You need to be vigilant that it does not drift left or right. Build quality to date has been good. Some minor squeaks from the front dash in cold weather, but these go away once the car’s warmed up. The seatbelts sometimes squeak rubbing against the non-leather parts of the “leather surfaces” seats. The rear brake assembly was replaced (under warrantee) after the first year, and the horn shorted out after driving in heavy rain (again replaced under warrantee). Finally, the steering column was lubricated after complaints it was making knocking noises, which again was repaired under warrantee (A recall I was unaware of, or was this a secret warrantee). Cost of ownership has been all wear and tear items to date. Rear brakes and rotors were replaced at 48km. Appearance – The car looks great. I often get complements. Comfort – Seats are big and comfortable. There’s room for five without complaints. The center rear seat does not have a head rest, which is a concern, and we try to limit the use of the seat if possible (Mazda - Why not give equal safety to all seating positions?) Fun Factor – None to whoop about. The car’s a good family hauler, with some style and zip. Oct 02, 2009

kit wise it is great, it had HID with projector, sunroof, leather, nice spakers. handling is awesome. grip is very good coming from the stock re050s. steering feedback is pretty darn good for a mid size. power is a little weak coming from the 2.3L motor. wished i had a manual for it cuz the automatic isnt that willing to rev or downshift. but nonetheless its a great mid size. no regrets on buying it.Jul 02, 2009

The 2007 Mazda6i is an absolutely fantastic car. It gets good mileage, and the 154 hp I-4 is quick and peppy. The body design and the low- toned dual exhaust make the car scream "TRACK DAY!" The interior is loaded with features, including a 5-speed bumpstick automatic, available GPS, heated front seats, moon roof, wheel- mounted audio controls, and even a button to toggle the TCS (a good button for those track days the car screams about.) Overall, the 6i is a track- ready street car. Not track ready enough for your tastes? Don't worry, there are plenty of factory and aftermarket upgrades available to make this awesome car even cooler.Jan 04, 2009

I love this car! Speed and acceleration are pretty good. The handling is astonishing. I can throw this thing into turns extremely fast and have complete confidence in the car to bring me out the other side. It grips the road really well. Gas mileage is really good, I can drive the car as hard as I can and it still gets good mileage. The car is a blast to drive!Jan 01, 2009

I have a Mazda 6 and I absolutely love it. I have the more pricer version which includes scotch guarded seats, V6 engine, and many many more other features. This car has amazing performance. The body style is sleek and gorgeous. When you wax it, it makes it look smooth as a bullet. I would recommend this car to anyone who wants good quality, performance, and a gorgeous apperance.Jul 01, 2008

A practical car with enough character, handling and performance to make an enjoyable drive. In 2002 Mazda turned the corner, releasing the first iteration of their cohesive design language, the Mazda6. It was an instant success, marrying good looks with class leading handling and performance. Only now, after 5 years, is the current Mazda6 due for replacement, and from all reports Mazda has not messed with the original formula, but rather made the new 2008 Mazda6 better in every way.Dec 19, 2007
