| jakem_56's Full Review: 2004 Mazda Mazda6 |
I bought a mazda 6 2.3 liter 4 cylinder engine about eleven months ago and have loved it. I have wanted one since mazda came out with the new body style in 2003. The car has a sleek looking style and is very fun to drive. It is a peppy car for having a 4 cylinder engine. It drives very smooth. The other day my friend that is a mechanic was in the car with me and just commented on how smooth the ride was. On even the roughest roads it gives you a smooth ride.
Today with gas prices the way they are. It is a great car. I drive it a lot and have found out that it gets over 30 miles to the gallon. Which is great.

It's a roomy car and sits 5 people comfortable. I weigh over 270 pounds and I can still get in the back seat comfortable. I can throw all my junk in the trunk and can also fold down the rear seats to get even more stuff in there.
It handles well under my heavy driving conditions. It has about 60 thousand miles and it still feels new.
The greatest thing about it was the price. I paid 14000 dollars for it in April of 2006. It had a little over 30,000 miles. During this time I couldn't find anything that beat this price.
It has been a great car but also has some downfalls. The thing I hate the most about it are it's head rests. It leans forwards preventing you from sitting straight up. They say it is there to reduce whip lash but it bothers me. I have to lean my seat back so I can sit comfortable. Another thing is the interior. It is a light gray cloth and stains very easily.
