Good it needs to tackle that Altima. It needs to stay in production and outsell Subaru and show Subaru who's boss. Come on Mazda I know that new CX-5 will tackle that Forester. That Legacy ain't s**t. Now give me my negative points. Mazda I love that car manufacturer. That new Mazda 3 is going to tackle that over rated Civic and Sentra too. So come on Nissan and Honda bring it on. The Mazda 6 ain't going no where. Now what now what?!!!

I think the 6 should be price slightly less and should compete just under the Altima/Camry/Accord/Sonata etc... I think it should be in the category the Altima started in. Just above and Civic and below an accord.

Mazda 6 just has no appeal. The MX5 is Mazda's savior.

Bummer. I was really hoping that they would ditch the US specific version and give us the same one the rest of the world gets. Oh well...

Perhaps on the next generation they won't make a US spec because this one didn't work out that well.
