The sedan stlye one looks nice, Im not so much for the station wagon, I think since Im used to p5 that just looks too long, of course thats one of the traits of a true station wagon. I like the push to start button hehe. The passenger side dash...needs something to take up all that empty space

it's a great looking car. now, i will make a comparison here, don't kill me, but the rear tail lights, in gesture and in form, are similar to the new Chrysler Sebring. now, the Sebring happens to be a hideous mass with, to paraphrase an author from the allpar (chrys, dodge, plym, eagle, jeep specific site), a "i brought the wrong trunk home from the junk yard" taillight look. the new Mazda6's lights have beautiful form and flow. now take that form language and give us an updated drop-dead gorgeous RX-7, Mazda!

the tail lights flow a little bit like the tails on the cx-9, mazda has been trying to form a more prominent "DNA" identity since the 2003 mazda6 and all in all its been slow and will take some getting used to. i like a little spice in life, so you can imagine that porsche's car designs arent exactly my idea of "variety" but mazda is trying to be a bit bolder than other manufacturers

Much like the Sebring, it looks like one team designed the front, and an entirely different team designed the rear.

Only the wagon rear looks good.

but oh well.. North America isn't getting this mazda 6
