Just picked up this 2005 Mazda6 S for $2,000 due to failed rear converter and timing chain tensioner. 127k from original owner with all the service records. Exterior and interior are in awesome condition with the exception of a crease in the rear, left door and quarter with collateral damage being a dettached sideskirt caused by a parking lot, ''hit and leave'' type accident. I usually start a build thread 1/2 way into it, but I decided I start this one off from the beginning. I don't have a lot of plans for this car really because it's the true grocery getter of my cars. The MSP and RX8 are my fun cars, but we have this one for the day to day stuff. I plan on replacing the 17's with my factory RX8 18's when I upgrade the 8s shoes.

The day we bought her:

Had it towed to my shop so I could start working on it:
