MAZDA 6

That's why stating FC figure and average trip speed provide better picture than stating xx:yy city:highway

 

Think its main due to more city drive, and city drive is always jam can have big impact versus rather smooth city drive but not as free flowing on highway...as FC is a measure of distance covered by unit fuel, any 0 distance with fuel consumption kills FC....so duration of that has great impact, regardless of how modern the engine maybe (just more or less impact)

 

my 2 cents

I suspect the wife might not describe the acceleration as "awesome" hahaha

 

You should've "psycho-ed" your wife to get the Stinger. Tell her with Stinger the tail is pretty much the same as the Mazda 6 wagon, with added electric tailgate function, and much much more power to boot.

 

You can then surprise her with the awesome acceleration when you merge onto the highway...

Having abit of buyers regret for not getting the executive.. Any idea if standard 2.0 FL can install keyless entry?

Well, I tried but she did not even want to visit the showroom because of the badge. I must also mention that she drove an E200k and now a NX200T, so she does not think much about Korean cars. I have also used up my "I paid deposit" card when I bought my Alfa last time, so now all the cars are under her name :(

I thought of installing as well and did some research- from their Facebook page, JDM Autocare does such installations.

 

In the end I did not install cos wife wasn’t keen on it but u can check them out?

I have the exec version. Before signing on the dotted line, another couple at showroom were deciding between std and exec. Asked me what was the main reason to opt for exec. I quoted two: keyless entry and memory seats.

Try JDM auto. Was quoted 650 for mazda 3 last time. Might be slightly different for mz6

I had that same dilemma.. standard does come with memory seats.. just leaves keyless entry.. wasn’t that sold on the other features either.. found it hard to justify the difference in price.. the SE wasn’t much help either.

Standard has memory seat also. To me the executive selling points:

- keyless

- HUD

- blind spot detection

- bose

 

Too bad... I got standard only.

Main deal breaker should be the halogen drl. It reminds me of jetta drl for the standard version.

I had keyless and memory seats on my previous car, so I kind of must get these features. HUD and blind spot are very very useful features as well.

if I may say, Mz6 also seems a bit below your league man haha

I use to buy used and now I buy new but budget still the same. I have to say I really like my M6 wagon, drives well and the soul red paint pops under light.

Can easily change to LED DRL.

the soul red is a custom color and in order to have that mfg in malaysia, the setup cost is 20 million ringette.

 

So soul red is actually a heavily discounted car from that point of view

Even the tail light design is different when lighted up between standard and executive. I believe even the sales don't know about it.

Memory seat is a requirement for me as I often switch drivers. But if only one driver, I think memory set is not needed.

- keyless

- HUD

- blind spot detection

- bose

All these features are nice to have but not need to have so if you can save the money it is good.

The yellow DRL is fine to me. Personally I feel yellow DRL mix with LED head lamps is unique. Maybe I have weird taste.
