Anyone else seen this?

I dunno if its just the angle it was taken but the front looks kinda like a fat kid. Headlights and grill are too small.

For some reason the Euro version looks a lot nicer to me.

Wow, that car is butt ugly. They ruined the Mazda 6. Seems like the trend lately, though. The Japanese are all realeasing ugly cars now and the Big 3 are starting to release nice cars.

Re: North American Mazda 6 -----> UGLY

Wow, I hate to be negative but yeah they definitely are making it worse. I find the current version a bit boring (sorry Mazda6 fans, please don't flame me, just my opinion!), but the new version is a tad homely.

The ass end is very nice lookin, but the front is horrible.

That's the other thing I meant to mention--the behind is fine.

I'm going to have to disagree. It's a sexy car. :goodjob:

Mazda just released pics on their website.

I think I change my stand on this car. I may check one out when my dealer gets one in.

Ya, I thought that was interesting. The 2008 3.0 L Mazda6 has a manual option.

Re: North American Mazda 6 -----> UGLY

A dealership in my area just got one in. I have to admit, I may go give the new 3.7 a drive. :koolaid:

Re: North American Mazda 6 -----> UGLY

I don't like the headlights or the tailights (by themselves - although I like the way the mirror the exhuast shape). I'm not a fan of the grill (reminds me of the Camry as do the tails) or the fog light area (Malibu?). However, I do like the fender flares (Altima) and I REALLY like the roofline (G37). It really does give the sedan a coupe look.

This is a great picture:

Have to say it looks GREAT in black and the wheels are sharp.

And what about that key?!!!??!!!!!!

I have a side job after work tonight to install a program on someones computer. But if I have time after that I may stop by the dealership. I've calculated my trade in and it looks possible.

Running it by the wife tonight is the big question! :lol:
