I like it overall...the rear 3/4 view reminds me of Lexus GS/IS, which IMO is not a bad thing. If there was something I'd send back for a re-do, it'd be that Camry Solara grille. I'm VERY anxious to see the MS6 if they do one.
 
I like it, when's the new MS6 coming out???

Word is that it will not be until mid to late 2008. I had heard that it will be a 2009 model, but the article suggests that it is a 2008.

I still have not heard any concrete info on whether it will get the 3.5 or 3.7 V6, anyone confirm one way or the other? Good to hear though that it will be lighter than the outgoing model.

I see a lot of Nissan Altima in the side profile, but not bad company to be in.
 
Well, the Mazda 6 bowed in 2003 and the MS6 didn't come along until 2006. If they do one, I suspect we have a while to think about it and speculate what it's packin. :-)
 
wow, very handsome, cohesive designs

if I were in the market for a car in that segment, the new 6 would be an obvious choice
 
Not crazy about the grill, it looks too much like the ugly-ass new WRX.

Otherwise, I really like 'em, especially the wagon! I hope they bring stick wagons to the states, they killed off the manual in '06, and the entire wagon in '07, so I sort of doubt we'll see '08 manual wagons, but I can hope!
 
Wow I really like it. Might have to find a way to trade up when the new MS6 comes out.
 
Well, I have to take back my other comments from the prior thread. I do really like the looks of the new 6. I am also happy they are returning to covers over the cupholders.
 
I really like it (thumb)

I don't know why, but it didn't look too good on the pictures from the other thread.

Well... still nothing concrete but Car and Driver had mentioned they heard it would be the 3.5l, twin turbo, for 09 on the speed 6. Its what they are going to use on the new MKS or whatever the heck its called. Thats all I've heard so far.
