That Mazda looks nice! I would have also considered the 380 GT - mostly because it has 53kw more power than the Mazda 6, 130Nm more torque, is much roomier inside, has a 5 speed silky smooth Tiptronic Transmission instead of a 4 speed, and looks and drives beautifully - not to mention the 5 and 10 year warranty. Trust me I've had the pleasure to drive one of these (best friends with a dealer) and I can't say enough about them.
Having said that, Liberty's are overrated, I'm glad you at least went for the Mazda 6. Last edited by 380; 30-09-2005 at 11:24 PM. |

So is the Mazda mate. 380, I am waiting 6 weeks because it is a build to car. They have two in Australia in that colour, however one is a Manual, and the other is sold. I am happy to wait, because the car is what we want. I am going to drive a 380, however not to buy, but to appreciate. -Andrew

If the 380 is Jap, then the Falcon and Commodore must be American.
But if it must be mid size and Jap, then get a Maxima Last edited by chevypower; 01-10-2005 at 01:37 PM. |

Some people are really slow... his made his decision! A great one at that! I dont think you could have gone wrong with either of the 3 cars..... but its great you went with the Mazda6! I really like the new headlights and rear lights.... and the added bonus of now having a 5sp. The neighbours have had the series 1 Luxury Sports in yellow since it was released.... a great car and i love looking at it everytime i get home.
Great choice! Hope all goes well with it!
