Hey all,
I'm a current (well former since I just totaled it) '08 Honda Civic coupe owner looking to purchase a new car in the next 2-3 weeks once I close on a new house on the 17th (yea, a lot going on at once!). I've always been curious about Mazda and I have to say that I've pretty much fallen in love with the Mazda 6. It's a beautiful car and I'm really anxious to pick something up that's more fun to drive as I drive 80 miles round trip every day to and from work.
My main dillemna right now is the decision between buying a CPO 2014/2015 (Touring or GT) with 24-30k miles for roughly $17k or go new (Touring) for roughly $10k more. I'm usually the type to buy a CPO because I don't like paying the steep first/second year depreciation tax and I obviously have a lot of money flying out the bank at once right now. However, of course Mazda decided to refresh the interior/technology features of the Mazda6 in 2016 so I'd be missing out on a lot of those features going CPO.
Really just looking for feedback from other who own or know a lot more about the differences between the 2014/2015 and the 2016/2017's that can help sway me in one direction or another. From some of the threads I've been reading it seems like there's a really good community here that I'm anxious to become a part of.
