Mazda6 2008 review

Mazda's midsize front-wheel-drive sedan benefits from a sportier nature than some of its competitors. Either a four-cylinder or a V-6 can be installed in the Mazda6. Both a manual and an automatic transmission are offered, and a hatchback body style is also available. Both the wagon and the high-performance Mazdaspeed6 have been dropped for 2008. New standard features for 2008 include 17-inch wheels and a tire pressure monitoring system. Competitors include the Honda Accord and Toyota Camry.
