I can't believe it took me so long to get one

Mazda 6 GS-L (Canada). You will not regret buying this car! And I have regretted many others. I live in a smaller city where there is no Mazda dealer nearby, so I never really thought of any of their cars in a serious way. But I happened upon one that was being sold from our provincial insurance as a write-off due to hail. I bought it at an extremely low price for 100,000 km (60K mi). I only saw pictures, but went for it. Wow! I can't understand why there aren't more of these cars around, they are fantastic. I'm 6'2" and was worried I'd be too big and tall. Nope. Super comfy with the leather seats (and the seat warmer is perfect for the winter time, I even turn it off after a while because it warms up so nicely). Drives laser straight, better than any other car or truck I've owned. Manual tranny is good (although I've had better for smoothness). Power is just fine for me, because I'm a bit of a hypermiler anyway, but I can see how an extra 30-40 hp would be nicer for the sport of it all. The nav is good but I don't like the cost of updating, so I've updated it once (since it was never updated and there are new roads around here) and won't bother again. Other than those items, everything is perfect. The engine feels like it'll go forever. Buttons and stuff placed just where I want to reach for them. Handles great. Looks fantastic. Just wish I bought one earlier!

I'm loving it.

This car gets exceptional gas mileage for its size and also offers a lot of power. The GT also offers a lot of tech! I test drove the Touring, but just couldn't resist all of the tech in the Grand Touring. The LEDs are amazing!!

2014 Mazda 6 i-Sport Manual one fun efficient auto

With this being the base model, the car is ok feature wise, but a few added safety features would be nice even at this trim level. The car is incredibly good with fuel mileage and the manual transmission is Top Shelf. Drove it for just under 170 K with zero problems other than standard wear items such as brakes/tires/filters/oil changes.

One of the best driving experience.

The car was an excellent car to own. It was fun to drive, comfortable, reliable and had a great design. The interior is very spacious and comfortable.

Awesome Car

I bought this car brand new. It drives and handles great. I have the manual transmission. The short-throw shifter is very smooth. The Skyactiv engine is very responsive for a four-cylinder though it doesn't have much power from a stop but once it gets wound up, it takes off. The infotainment system could use a lot of improvement. When using a USB to play music, the system takes several minutes to read the drive and it always starts over on the first song. It doesn't pick up from the last song you were listening to. However, the voice command does a good job. It's not perfect but it gets it right most of the time. The car has a lot of blind spots. I think this is because the federal government requires the sheet metal part of the door to be higher which reduces the amount of window height. The blind spot monitor helps me avoid hitting other cars when I change lanes because sometimes I just can't see them.

Great value for money

Excellent mileage and comfort to drive. Been on many roadtrips and felt perfectly comfortable. The many features were above the usual standard for a vehicle at this price point when I bought it. I drove every vehicle in the class and felt that this was the best one.

My first new(er) car

I absolutely love the brand Mazda. We have owned Mazdas since I was a kid and I love this car. It's beautiful, roomy, and makes me feel safe with my baby in it.

Awesome Car

I saw the vehicle online and was immediately drawn to its sleek outter appearance. I sent your dealership and email on Thursday evening. I was contacted first thing on Friday morning. Came in to test drive the vechicle and walked out with a purchased vehicle!!
