2007 Mazda MAZDA6 User Reviews

More About The 2lo 6 — 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.

Good Family Hauler — 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.

Stylish And Comfortable At The Same Time — This car was just what my wife was looking for. It's stylish and comfortable, with all of the amenities we like in a car. The price was right and she's happy with the vehicle. I kinda like it too. Especially the warantee.

Best Handling Budget Mid Size Sedan :) — 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.

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

Mazda6i — 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.
