Bagong labas ng Mazda 6 2006! overall standing may laban daw!

 

 

yes sir! i just visited the showroom of mazda yesterday and saw the m6. ang laki ng change ng features from the previous m6. these include the following:

 

1. engine from 2.0 to 2.3L

2. transmission from the regular automatic to the sportronic type so pwede na mag manual shifting.

3. mags size from 16 ata to 17

4. sound system

5. interior styling is definitely good.

6. external appearance is also very appealing (parang volvo (s40 series) ang itsura, sporty talaga.

 

in my own opinion it is definitely better than then honda accord

Test driven both the Accord & Mazda6 2.3L.

 

In my opinion, the Mazda6 2.3L is a better car overall. Lots of goodies to play with (HID, sunroof, etc.). Ride is quite good for something with 17" low-profile tires. Handling is superb - almost at par with European sedans and way above other Japanese sedans.

dude you can't go wrong with the mazda 3. i should know, i got one! hehehe. seriously, imo best value for money yung 1.6l. Each car has its own advantages and down side depending on each owner's taste and your objective in getting the car. for me the downside is that the backseat is less romy than my mazda familia and it does not come in manual transmission because they offer the a/t with activematic.

 

go to your nearest mazda dealer, so you can have a better feel and then compare it with other cars. if it's to your liking then pa-reserve ka na! mahaba pa rin pila sa 1.6l model nila.

 

Don't let the 105ps rating fool you. the engine has a enough torque for a 1.6l and a great gear ratio. you get the horsepower from the engine torque. in short, even in a heavier body (compared to the altis, civic, lancer, sentra and optra) it can keep up with the competition and even surpass them in long highways kasi yung 1.6l di umaayaw yung makina basta tapakan mo lang ng tapakan accelerator. there are those who claimed to have taken their 1.6l up to 205 kph. my personal experience so far is only up to 180 kph (NLEX-slowed down coz may nakita akong highway patrol from afar). Sa arangkada medyo mabagal kasi matic e. iba talaga ang manual kung arangkadahan. that's why the m3 is not for drag race or short sprints. for short sprints palaban pa din naman, just keep your engine working at higher rev ranges. kung may manual na m3 dito ibang usapan yon.

 

good luck! :D

Regarding sa mazda 3. Wait muna kayo after two years to three years. Remember yung mga mazda dati konti na lng makikita mo sa kalsada. 323, 626, astina. ang ok lng yung miata.

 

Ang reklamo sa mazda yung makina nila. Ford na mayari ng mazda. The same with Ford. Ang mahal ng ford pag brand new pero mura pag

second hand.

 

So waiting game muna sa mazda kung ok tlga or maporma lng labas.

 

Kung atat na kayo bumili Mas ok sympre honda or toyota.

 

Pag toyota mag rav 4 kayo. kahit second hand mahal pa din. yung innova pang family. sa honda yung jazz.

 

Dont be blinded sa porma. Pag sa car yung name ng company check nyo. Kahit taxi wla na ako makita na mazda 323.

per se, hindi mas-ok ang toyota o honda sa mazda. actually, masgumanda nga ang mazda nung hinawak na sila ng ford. ang mazda3 ay naging top compact sa mga car mags at sites. ang mazda6 ang unang tumaob sa accord sa mid-size class sa ratings. problema kasi dito sa pinas ang akala ng mga tao toyota and honda lang ang mahusay na kotse. kung ganun, bakit ang takaw sa gasolina ang bagong cr-v? bakit walang bumili ng toyota echo?
