It really is a fantastic car. The engineering that has gone into it, is incredibly impressive.
The 2014 Mazda 6 is a finalist for the World Car Design of the Year, along with the Aston Martin Vanquish and the Jaguar F-Type. The latter two cars retail for a combined $350,000, compared to $22,000 for the Mazda. Pretty impressive for Mazda.

I'd buy one in a heartbeat if they would release a Mazdaspeed version. I love the design.

Don't know what the OP is whining about. I've driven the Lincoln MKX, which has the same V6 engine. Thing had plenty of power. Was a blast to drive, and that's all that matters.

Not the best picture but here's the battle wagon in all her glory. She turns eight this July. 2005 Honda Civic LX-G. We've been through a lot together.

Had a friend with an identical car, same color, same trim, same Si rims (Si in Canada for you Americans reading)

You aren't in London are you by chance? hah

The last nice Lincoln.

I remember when that gen first came out and Motor Trend (or some other magazine) did a write up on a completely customized one.....supercharged, body kit (not over the top), lowered...I fell in love with the LS

+1 Sadly, the Lincoln situation doesn't look to be improving. Next ride will most likely either be a Jag XJ or a CTS-V.

I dunno, have you ever went to a car wash and literally power washed a section of paint off? lol i lost about a 5" by 7" area of paint on my front bumper of the Civic. I could see then how thin their paint is, i dunno how they even managed to buff a shine on it at the factory without seeing primer.

Happened to me on an acura. Washed off the chrome paint on the grill a large section. Had to buy a new grill and replace it eventually
 
Man you guys have some sweet rides, awesome. I had a 2004 Aveo hatchback for about 5 years. It died last August on my way home from brother's wedding at like 4am, timing belt tensioner gave out while on the highway. It has what I understand to be an "interference" engine, and yeah, that happened. I didn't bother getting it fixed since I don't have the tools/ability to do it on the cheap and the vehicle really wasn't in great shape overall, not worth much. So now I have no car.

I don't need a car, but I would like to buy something fun as my next car whenever it may be.
 
1994 Acura Integra GSR, also have a 84 chev pickup 4x4 I use as an offroad toy on the weekends or when I need to tow anything.

Lol, nope, Milton. There's actually a ton of these around though most people have the steel wheels or they're the older 2001-2003 model which has a different grill.

I actually prefer the seventh gen Civic to the eighth gen. Dashboard is too chunky in the newer models. Sadly I noticed some rust on an area I had bodywork done a few years back. They've been putting an obscene amount of roadsalt down this winter. That's what killed my old car. I just washed and waxed her this weekend. Of course then it has to snow again. It's bloody April!

Swingers, great movie.

You are so money, baby, and you don't even know it.

The best scene is when they are playing NHLPA 93, haha. Some swearing:

Ron Livingston was my best guess for the one guy, and in my head, I literally said '...and some hispanic guy' (okay maybe I said 'mexican'...). I LOL'd when I scrolled down and saw who it was.

I'll have to watch that. It's like 17 years old, so it's probably on Showtime or something.
