Never left me down.

Probably the best family car you can get out there. Saves gas. Plenty of room front and back seats and in the trunk.

Sporty Sedan for the family

I have enjoyed my '12 Maszda 6 for 3 yrs now. Overall I have been pleased as I have not had 1 issue with the car. The only complaints I would have is the Interior noise while driving and the 2.5L 4 cyl engine is noisier than most I have ever owned. If you are idling through a drive thru, it is quite irritating. When I purchased the vehicle I had read lots of reviews and the engine noise was really the only complaint. This would not deter me from purchasing again.

GREAT CAR

THE CAR IS GOOD ON GAS AND HAS PLENTY OF LEG AND TRUNK SPACE. ITS A UNIQUE LOOKING CAR. THE ONLY NEGATIVE IS THE PARTS ARE EXPENSIVE ESPECIALLY FROM THE DEALER. I USUALLY USE COUPONS TO OFFSET THE COST.

Perfect car I have owned

I was fortunate enough to stubble upon this car. I purchase it from a friend at 45k miles for $13 grand and its perfect car. It has all that i need, 2.5l engine is fast enough and the car is fun to drive.

Good pick up, bad site lines

The pick up, acceleration and handling were all better then good. Bad site lines for driver on turns and reversing. Poor radio.

2012 Mazda 6

I bought this car in 2012 brand new. It's fun to drive with a 6 speed manual transmission. The display is easy to read and everything is within my reach. My only complaint is it can be a tad uncomfortable on long trips.

It worth the money.

It is very comfortable and reliable. I really recommend it especially for students who don't want to spend lots of money on a car.

Thee best than the rest!

I am on my third Mazda product and this would be my second M6. Everything about this car I love. I've test drove the other brands and I was not impressed even with the reliability history. ANY car is reliable, it all depends on how you care for it and drive it. If you do your maintenance as scheduled, it'll be kind to you. The cabin space is HUGE and for people who are 6ft tall will find that it is very comfortable. The seats hug me when I'm in it and I feel safe. The ride is so joyful and controlled. In panic maneuvers, it responds so well. The car is big for it size and I'm surprised it's classified as midsize. The style of 09-13 models are beautiful. The 4cyl engine can be more powerful but its has more than adequate power. The V6 version is stronger but takes more gas. I get compliments everywhere I go. I am a proud owner. I will buy again from Mazda in the future.
