I think it looks fantastic and looks like a more aggresive, manly Acura TSX. Very well done.

wow nice
front is a bit like a camry solara
rear is kinda like a chrysler sebring
it works though
but most of all, i love how the wagon looks

is this considered a cousin of the Ford Mondeo?

IMO the new Altima is horendous....I can't see how they approved that design.....Now this just gave some serious competition to the Accord and Camry.

I can admit it's better than it was, but something's just odd about the front, but I guess it's just me. But for the other cars competing in the class, it is the best.

I never thought I'd say this but the wagon is better looking than the sedan, what's up with that?!?

I love the exterior and the features list... the interior looks very cheap for a car that is undoubtedly going to cross the 30k threshold in loaded up form.

In fact for some reason it looks more like something I'd expect to see out of the class below the 6.

I think this car is a home run for Mazda. The Mazda3 is selling very well and it doesn't even look as good as the Mazda6.

The wagon is very stylish and will probably win over a lot of CUV types. Man, Mazda designer are really pushing ahead of the other Japanese mfgs.
