Mazda has unveiled the North American domestic market version of its new second generation Mazda 6. More details are to come later, but from the initial press release we know that the North American version has slightly different styling on the front and rear end, and the option for a large 3.7 litre V6 engine mated to a 6-speed auto as the flagship model. The other engine variant is the 2.5 litre inline-4 engine mated to a 5-speed auto. More details to come when Mazda issues a full press kit.

nice…nice….bt jap spec is nicer than this one…izit slightly bigger or still d same??
nice car..really
Heard is coming to Bolehland in Jun or July this year… Can’t wait to see it ZOOM ZOOM around KL…
agree with u raybrig85.. this one looks too american, kinda dodge to me.. thumbs up for jap spec..
i still like the european tight solid look, its too flare
good good…
Very sharp and sleek….. Nice!
European model looks way better than this elongated old camry
.. look alike
this is wat we call a nice car… i wonder y there are two different types of car designer in this world, one is smart n brilliant enough to create a car as nice as this Mazda 6, while some are as idiotic n foolish enough to create a car like the Mini Clubman… juz cant understand why…
Definitely see the Camry comparison at the front. Rear 3/4 profile looks quite like the GS or the new Jag XF. Nice looking car. They should lose the bling rear lights. Its like the ones on the last generation Scoob WRX. Ugly…..
The new 2008 Mazda 6 will be launched in Bolehland on 7/8 May 2008. Zoom…zoom…=)
mazda 6…
nice…….
what a car!
For those interested with this car, I found this from Berjaya-Mazda’s blog:
Latest final estimated price for Mazda6 2008 :-
Mazda 6 (2.0L) – 147,962.90 (OTR)
Mazda 6 (2.5L) – 171,516.20 (OTR)
first impression, mercs CLS
my god, another fat a$$.
the euro version is much more subtle and classy imo. This ver is waaay too flashy.
this car is nice, i saw a few in Singapore.
totally looks off the wall better than honda civic and dare i say the lancer.
it really looks one of a kind. i love it.
hmm… so now Mazda following trend of Honda and Toyota to have JDM, UDM and EU model… tho sometimes EU and JDM are same..
Bring it on BerMas !!! Mazda Forever !!!
Nah…i like da previous look better…this look a lil 2 sudtle 4 me..
paul

The rear seat door may be slightly lower for passenger to enter….but the design is sexy
I saw a white one yesterday at Jalan Ampang-Sultan Ismail intersection.
…with Malaysian plate, and slightly elegant grill (different from the ones shown above).
Awesome car.
great design, NICE !
Definitely something that I’m considering to get. The “poor” man CLS.hehe….I wanna get either this or the new accord. Paul, when can we can the test drive report?
