Congratulations and enjoy! Great looking car and love that color.
Start new thread. At the bottom click on "manage attachments" browse and select pics, then upload. I think it's explained better in the FAQ, and you can also link to a URL. Hope this helps.

Very nice. It's the gray right? Let us know how the sand leather holds up over time.
Yes, Meteor Gray and "almond" leather, even though it looks close to the "sand" cloth. Yes, I'm hopeful the light leather holds up, always had black leather in the past. I will update.

Congrats, man. The '6 is by far the best looking midsizer I have seen in a long time....maybe forever.
Meteor Gray, right?

Awesome, is that Stormy Blue Mica? It's not available in US.

This dark blue is very nice.
I saw the Reflex Blue in person on a cloudy day and was a bit underwhelmed. It would be nice to have either the stormy blue or the brighter sky blue on the CX-5.

Is yours a diesel? If so, how you like it?
Yes it is, and it's a big change for me as my last car was a Chrysler 300C 3.0 litre V6 Diesel remapped to 285bhp and 600Nm of torque. So I'm getting used to driving a "stick" again, the 6 is so easy to drive I forget to change gear!!! I also have to remember to put it neutral when stopped in traffic so the i-stop can work.
It goes really well, the handling is great. I've only done 800 gentle miles so far, around town and is returning 45 mpg. I've not been on long runs yet and have been told that there is a "step change" in economy at 1500 miles so I look forward to that.
A couple of weekends ago I went on a All New Mazda6 Experience and part of that was a go around the Longcross Proving Ground Test Track, where I had the chance to treat the test car a little less gently than I would my own, here's me going slowly and here's the Pro Driving Instructor showing how it should be done with my buddy Steve in the passenger seat.

If they offered the 6 in blue in the US, I'd be driving it now... Wake up MazdaUSA!
