I have not been able to find a dedicated forum on the web that is specific to the mazda6 s (3.7 liter engine) owners. Has anybody had success?
Obviously there is a big difference between the 4 cylinder and the V6. There should be a dedicated forum specific to those individuals that did not even consider test driving cars other than 6 cylinder or more, you know what I mean. It seems most people purchased the 4 based on what I have read on the web.
I test drove the S because we have a CX-9 and I was looking forward to seeing how the car would perform with the same engine. First test drive and I had a smile on my face!
I purchase a GT with bose and moonroof-metallic silver. Will order rear spoiler and splash guards. I was pretty much stuck with purchasing a sedan based on family constraints. Test drove Acura TL, Lincoln MKS, Maxima SV, Fords, and the Camry. The bottomline is that the performance / cost ratio of the M6-S was the highest. The Maxima, out the door was $8K more and was slightly better in the "fun factor". The Lincoln MKS with the same engine as the S but was much more expensive out the door (but is was a nice car). Fords were not good at all. Camry...I guess I had to test drive...what was I thinking? and finally the TL which was disappointing, I cannot really say why because this was my original car of choice from a long term quality standpoint.
Stupid stuff-During the test drive I stomped on the gas and burned rubber through several gears (wider tires in my future?) ! Going to work yesterday got up to 110 MPH and was still accelerating at a good clip. Did not want to max because the car is new.
