When I took delivery of the car on 23 March I said I will write a review about it in my blog. It took ages as the site has been inactive ( I stop blogging on the day I booked my Mazda6). But here it is, the summary of my feeling about Mazda6 2.0 accumulated for almost a month and 5000km.

http://www.malaysia-motoring-news.com/2013...ve-out.html?m=0

In essence - stylish, spacious cabin, uninspiring dashboard, good pliant ride, good handling, so-so noise suppresion, small boot, relaxed cruiser and addictive to drive.

Nice write up!

Actually i very disappointed on this, because.. another main reason for me to top up additional 30k is the Bose sound system (im a typical audiophile). And i very enjoy listening to those classical, more quiet music. Now... the wind noise... ruin my entire mood.... cry.gif I cant just drive 100km/h on highway right?

It's not a big issue. After market audio system are usually superior to any default audio system, in this case, you just have to spend a little more - You can probably get a fairly decent system complete with some soundproofing at around RM6,000 or so. There should be cheaper solutions available as well that would probably sound just as good, all you need to do is just look around for it.

There is no paint protection system in the world that can 100% protect your car against stone chips. It is only effective against small dirt/sand particles, or similar sizing debris but that also probably depends on the speed at which you're driving.

Keying, scratch, or intentional scratch marks all the more no need to say, not possible to protect against that

The effective solutions against stone chips, keying are:

Hood cover
3M Clear Bra
Ventura shield
Car color wrap

Alternatively, don't trail behind a lorry if you can help it and avoid dirt roads when possible.

That said, all this car paint protection coating does make washing/cleaning your car easier because less effort is required in removing dirt.

What? That's almost the price for a pair of headlight.

Yep, all the while is like that. I don't know if its cause they jack the price up because there isn't many other quality choices around or what. But as far as a proper HID goes, the Phillips kit is the one to get.

Yea bro, so far mine is excellent, no problem. Considering to plug and play racechip, so can smoke those GTI~

Sure or not? Golf GTI is 6.9s default, if they stage 1 ABT....
Golf R all the more no need to say, 0 to 100 in 5.7s

But even Golf R would have problems against the Mazda 3 MPS, LOL!
