Notsogoodman 4th Gear April 5, 2011 Share April 5, 2011 saw that there are Mz6 2.0 S A and Mz6 2.0 sp can anyone enlighten me on the difference between these two models? saw that one model came with manual shift gear while the other is just a typical AT gear (pardon me.. been driving MT all my life) Sunburnsam is right, go for the SP (avail only very late 2005, nov/dec) so make sure u looking at the right model.... SP uses 5-speed auto vs 4-speed of SA... n if possible, go for the 2.3 (top of the spec, sunroof, memory seat, blackout meter, full bodykit etc).... in fact in terms of depreciation, 2.3 SP is almost the same as 2.0 SP; only prob is to find one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notsogoodman 4th Gear April 5, 2011 Share April 5, 2011 thinking of getting a 2005 car so i dun think i will re-sell.. probably just scrap it later on i m on a 2005 Mazda 6 2.3SP, couldn't resist the deal (n pressured by a certain "s^&b$%#s$m" to grab it before he beats me to it).... hahahhaaaa if u keen to try, maybe u can grab sunburnsam n me out to try a Heavily Modded 2.3SA (pre FL) n a STOCK 2.3SP (FL) to compare a few things u gotta be aware abt this car!!! 1. i think i m burning rubber fast (can't resist going round corners at speed) 2. ur light foot gotta be light (it's very very easy to Rev to 5-6k RPM) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostie Clutched April 5, 2011 Share April 5, 2011 Hello guys, Just got myself a used 08 2.0 Mazda6 today. So far, after using it for half a day, I really like the equipment on this car. The xenon is superb, the handling's great and the look's gorgeous yet sporty. I think it suits my image just right. I think I gotta be ready for is the higher FC because I upgraded from a 1.4 TCed car. Hopefully with all the great stuff, I will soon get over it. Will monitor and see what I am getting. Btw, besides this forum, is there another forum where the M6 folks go to? Any meet up? I wanna hear the poisons. Haha.. Cheerio and drive safe. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expertz 1st Gear April 5, 2011 Share April 5, 2011 Yes, <2yrs mz6 is going for 75-80k but they brought for 60-65k. it's means that they are driving for free all these time and even get some profit back I just can't bring myself to buy that, but that's just me. OMG serious? strange how there are so many picantos/qq/getz/swift/fit on the roads when a mz6 used to go for 60k i'd buy 2! i can't imagine how much do bmws cost then... can't imagine getting a bmw for 90k... haha makes anybody who buy a civic now look foolish Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dun think a brand new BMW ever got below 100k. It does sound ridicules to pay more than 100k for a 1.6 Civic, however the M6 is 130 k now and the 320i is 200k. My friend just paid 83k for his forte and he could have got the camry at the same price one year ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
