2004 Mazda 6 review from North America
"Better ride, handling, and performance then it's predecessor the 626"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
radio screen faded.
General comments?
Variable valve timing stretches the horsepower out through the rpm range making it a non-lunging;non-whiny 4 cylinder.
Mazda's have always have been reliable, but with their new suspensions, they are now a blast to drive.
