Just rec'd my black 2009 Mazda6 GTi 6MT with MR/Bose, spoiler but no nav. a few issues so far (300 Miles) . Love ride, acceleration decent for 4cly. shifter is awesome!!!
1) at delivery (I live out of state from dealer) what appeared to be minor spot on hood in showroom looks in sunlight to be softball sized paint defect - have put dealer on notice must fix/replace ASAP.
2) drive window made "clunk" noise when it went down all the way a few times but working (flashback to 87 626Gt - I could reset/repair d/s window with blindfold!)
3) accelerator/throttle seems to be anticipating my move too quickly esp in light around town driving and gives sensation of hiccup/lunge - and makes it look like I don't know what I'm going with clutch except that it's between shifts. (plus 3x mazda manuals I have this down pat!!)
4)also have glove box issue.
UPDATE Sunday 11/8 - drove car to & from work on Friday. Moved it in and out of garage this afternoon. Went to go to my hockey game - opened trunk, opened drivers door to open garage door with opener and decided to start car while I got a few more things. CAr would not start. Dash etc lit up like Christmas tree, ext. lights came on and push button said on but car was not running. Shut of auto lights and tried 3x - not start. Move hockey stuff to wife van and locked up Mazda. Still had dashboard lights on but had to get to hockey, Came home two dashboard lights still on but interior and exterior lights off. Tried to start again nothing even with aux key. Now battery draining and would not lock with key & sounds coming from front of radiator almost like horn with dying battery but all lights still fairly strong. CAlled roadside for morning tow to dealer - 500 miles on car.
