Lovely car to drive, keep it under 2000 rpm and it can be very docile, love the AWD very easy to launch when required, extremely quick through the first 2 gears, will beat most cars to 80kmh. Did i mention the AWD? this thing is amazing in the wet, though I tend to leave the traction control on because once she goes she's gone.

The first day I had it I took it out semi bush, switched the traction control to off, bearing in mind my previous car was a Falcon Wagon so I was well versed in oversteer. I took off from a T intersection, the front wheels gripped, the rear wheels danced over the loose gravel - and i did an uncontrolled U-turn on the spot, scared the shyte out of me.

Might potentially do some turbo and exhaust work if i keep it a while but no plans as yet.

Love the relative anonymity of the package which is why I bought it, my first preference was definitely not red though.
 
Looks like a neat little car you have got there mate also with a bit of go in it as well.

Nice little package :)
 
AWD is amazing technology, I love it. Nice car you've got mate. :)

How much better is the second series Mazda 6's from the first?

Very nice quick car, especially stock. How much did you originally pay for it and have you modified it since?

Paid 40k

traded it in for a Passat Diesel. Not exactly rock and roll.
