Official 2009 USDM Mazda6 thread

The 6 needs the 3.5 TT that the MKZ and Fusion will be getting.

The next Speed 6 my friend

Koenig, I'm looking for the white and black leather interior you want to see but all I can find are black, gray, and beige. No two tone.

Yeah that's why I wanted to see pics, I wanted to see if it looks like the speed6 two tone leather....

I don't even own a cell phone. I just think it is a more desirable feature for the larger % of people than a mute button. I agree about the cell phone while driving, but this makes it a little less distracting until cell phone are finally outlawed while driving.

oh that's cool, i just wish there was a mute, or at least, ya know, if you don't choose the bluetooth option (which probably is extra knowing mazda) is there a mute button instead?

I was referring to the new 2.5L I4 with 170 HP. I fully understand everything you said. That's why I bought a Mazda 6 in 2004. The 6 needed an upgrade and the 3.7L 272 HP V6 is awesome.

OHHHH my mistake I read it wrong, I thought you were saying, regarding the older models you would pic the 2.3L i4 over the 3.0 V6.... lol Sorry.

The next Speed 6 my friend

One can only hope my friend.... one can only hope.... I know I am! (rockon)

I believe Mazda lists it as Gray leather, but its a very pale shade. It reminded me alot of the '02 Millenia special package with the ivory/black interior.

Also, if you haven't seen yet, they have the spec sheet up on the Mazda website. Link is here:

Just to prove that I did what I said, here's the proof:

Got a comet gray V6 all weekend...I'll see what I can do for more info.

 

[tunersteve]

thanks man, get some interior pics, I want some close ups of the dash, and close ups of the uh.... the shifter column, that shows the layout of the gears and where the sportronic shift area is, etc.

Thanks :-D

oh and if it has blue tooth take a pic of the steering wheel buttons? like a close up?

This one isn't as nice as the blue one was. No bluetooth, no bose, and no adv. keyless this time. Interior is still gray/black 2 tone, but cloth instead of leather. I would assume this is only a Touring model.

Even though it looks pretty nice in the pics and I'm loving the power hike, I can't help but like the looks of the last gen 6 better.

I wasn't a fan at first, but seeing it in person has totally made me a believer. This car is a night & day change from the outgoing model, but in a good way. It took all of the good points and made them better, and they addressed just about every issue in some way to make it the best they could. I'd seriously consider trading my MS6 in for a V6 GT in a year or so.

I sincerely hope that this wins MT's car of the year when they choose the next one.

Ok, here's some more stuff for you guys:

Took a look at the V6 Touring that is around, found some things:

• This car has the mute button on the steering wheel. I think if you have BT you really won't need a mute for much.
• This car didn't have the adv. keyless, heated seats, or Bose, so I don't have any info on that.

With that said, here's some stuff for you to enjoy.

More for you 6 lovers out there:

Nice leg.... lmfao.

I gotta say that 2 tone does look nice, but it looks like it'd get dirty easy, was it cloth or leather?

Also I'm kind of disappointed they got rid of the round AC vents (which you could point in ANY direction) and the storage compartment on the top of the dash

oh and what exactly is "BSM" from that last pic with the "BSM OFF" button?



Thanks for hooking it up with the pics brotha!! (thumb)

It was leather. The BSM is the blind spot monitoring system. And yes, I know my legs are sexy

That thing must have a extremely large blind spot for that feature.
