I have an '08 Mazda 6 GT sports. Although it's not the same as the Wagon6, mine has the same 2.3 litre 4-cylinder engine as the Wagon. What year are you looking at? The '08 has 212hp for the V-6 (not sure of earlier years). For me, this car has been extremely reliable and it very good on gas. Not to sure about the V-6, but l would suspect that it's pretty good as well. The V-6 is a ford made engine, while the 4 is the Japanese MZR model.
The supension kit is nice and durable and really takes corners well. Mine has dual stabilizer bars in the front and back, although I do have the sport model so I am not 100% sure if they are the same on the Wagon. But I know the main suspension is. I agree with Nuje, everyone and there mother has a 3. But the 6 is where it's at. If you read reviews of it online, virtually every review mentions almost the same things good that I would have to say.
-Great look and drivability
-LOADS of truck space. Obviously the Wagon has a ton of room, but even my sport model has massive amounts of room. (Hatchback style). Regular sedan is still decent.
-Awesome on Gas. For my 4 cylinder I get aprx 650-850kms per tank (56ltr). THe V-6 I am not sure, but many reviews state it is pretty good.
-Great sporty look on all models. The headlights wrap around the side of the car and really give it an agressive, sporty look. Back lights have sporty look and wrap around the side as well.
-Tons of headroom, especially in the backseats. Not sure of the exact dimensions, but everyone who sits in the back of mine says good things.
-The drivers consol has a really nice, almost futuristic look to it. Everything is withing a good distance. The lights for the dials and consol are this almost neon red glow to it. Personally I think it looks great, especially at night.
If you have any more questions, let me know. I absolutely love my 6 (prefer it over the RX-8 actually) and have nothing but good things to say about it. Good luck with your search, let me know if you found anything.
