We have added this antenna to our 6's and have had no issues with reception in our area.

Love the color of your 6 perro del sol(dog of the sun?)....sweet.....I wanted one at one time....hatch in that color! Good choice...antenna looks good!!
 
Ok,
So first i bought one of those 'dummy antennas' off ebay for $20. Didn't fit. So i bought the Visual Garage antenna for $60 and it looks awesome.
(Sorry about the small pics.. Just quick cell phone shots, i'll post more soon)

You are correct, the hatch is the wife's car and the wagon is mine. We love the CX-7, if they only had a MTX we would add it to our Mazda garage.
 
Correct me if I am wrong but don't frequencies travel in wave lines?
#2 Wouldn't the higher the antenna the more line of sight it has for reception?

I am just basing this from a communications class I took.
I like the idea of the shark fin antenna but I would not do it simply because it will result in lower reception you would have to be in areas relatively closser to the am/fm transceiver I think the car looks good with it's basic antenna
