    Mazda 6 (3rd gen) 2012-

    That's a superbly good looking 4 door family saloon.

    And it has a distinct Japanese styling. It's not trying to look European. And that's a good point. I like it.

    Don't like it at all but it fits squarely into the boring sedan class.

    Much better than the current 6 version the US gets. Any info on dimensions?

    Who cares about all of that? All I care for is- will there be a crazy ass MazdaSpeed version?

    There isn't a Mazdaspeed of the current 6 and I doubt there will be of this one although there's suppose to be a diesel version.

    The previous Mazdaspeed 6 did not sell well.

    Wish it was a bit more like the concepts.

    It looks plain next to those two. But I suppose that's to be expected, it does a pretty good job of looking like them.

    Supposedly there is some partial regen through super cap to power the electrical system to take load off the alternator....

    I wonder if this car will be quick, so far all the comments for these Skyativ Mazda is that the engine is nice, good mileage, but slow....

    I don't think they are that slow, just not turbocharged and performance isn't as lazy as on those engines.

    It has a kerb weight of just 1340 kg, that's not bad

    Not bad indeed, especially for a car of this size.

    It also retains normally aspirated engines.

    And looks this good.

    Seems like it may be a great car.
