    Your thoughts on a 6 hatchback

    I have a sedan, I liked the lines a little better but in hindsight i wish I had got a hatch, trying to fit my saltwater fishing poles through the back of the car to the front seats is a pain. BTW Raynman I'm one of the 6's you see around you, seen your car a couple of times in the area.

    Falken Ziex tires or Kumho Ecsta AST tires

    I have the Falken ZE 912's on my 6S tire size 215/50 R17, I'm pleased with their performance, turn in off center is snappy and they really dig into the corners giving you good grip. I drove them in the snow and performance was just as good as any other tire I had used, if that's even a concern...

    Hopefully getting my first Mazda6 on Saturday. (Pointers??)

    Once you get the car I'd head out and get an oil change; it's always been something of an anal point with me. Also spend sometime flippin' through the manual, the maintenence schedule isn't to hard to keep up with so just be cognizant of any services coming due. Also inquire with the dealer to...

    2009 Mazda6 spy shots

    Barf, thoroughly disappointing. Looks like it should be going off roading and Mazda already has enough crossovers!

    Recommended All-season Tires

    Wintermute, I got the oppurtunity to try out my Falken 912's in the snow this past week, performance was just about as good as any other all season UHP tire that I had (I've used Dunlops, Bridgestones and Good Years in my time behind the wheel). I can't really say one disappointing...

    Recommended All-season Tires

    I got them at Edgeracing.com, they where running a special at the time and even still now in the same size they're running about the same price shipped to NJ. Once they got shipped it took about four days for them to make their way up.

    Recommended All-season Tires

    Over the weekend I had my Falken ZE-912's (215/50/R17) mounted up, first driving impressions are a very compliant tire, low noise and good tracking, turning off center was much improved. I'm impressed as I only paid 300 shipped to my house. I did drive home in quite a bit of rain and snow last...

    HVAC light burned out!

    Merry belated Christmas everyone, just need some info. This morning I fired on my 05 Mazda 6 and when I went to crank up the heat I realized that the light behind my Auto Climate control button/knob (far right) was burned out. Gone was the amber/red/orangish glow that had once back lit the...

    The Dealership Experience

    Appreciate the responses guys, here's a little bit of an update on what transpired last night. I had to go back down to the dealership to pick up my car and drop off their loaner. Prior to my arrival and loosening up some I had a discourse with the dealer to see if we could work out and...

    The Dealership Experience

    Back in April I picked up my 2005 Mazda 6s 5spd from a dealership near South Jersey/Philadelphia area, certified preowned the whole nine, got a good deal on it and all was good. I've racked up quite a few miles on the car since I first picked it up and last week I got a check engine light right...

    How long do MS6 Last?

    Oh it would have I'm sure, I should have mentioned the tranny blew on it and it didn't make sense for me to pay to have the tranny fixed. 7 years in the Pontiac was enough, the thing would sound like a bucket of bolts rolling over railroad tracks. I'm happy with my 6 but heed the advice gang...

    Exhaust for a mazda 6 i

    I have the racing beat mufflers and I like the sound, I can't really liken it to anything on the road though. I also like the fact that is doesn't look like two coffee cans are hanging off the back of my car.

    How long do MS6 Last?

    Just remember, modified cars modified problems. With regular oil changes I had a Pontiac Sunfire last 201K miles true story.

    Anyone with a 2005 Mazda6 V6 Sport....... I need your help.

    The fog lights are built into the head light assembly on the 2005 S. Looking at them you'll see four lenses, one is low beams, one is high beams, one is your blinker and the other are the fog lights, second one in from the center I believe. They cast shorter then all other beams are are pretty...
