Mazda6 is out today, I saw the 2.5L car in Penang this morning and it look gorgeous!

Can anybody share their test drive experience of the Mazda6 and Accord, whether Mazda6 really offers better driving experience than Accord? (reviews in UK think Mazda6 is comparable to BMW 3 series!) rclxms.gif

Can elaborate more on this?
Do you mean Mazda6 is more comfortable inside in terms of riding, NVH (quietness), and handling than Accord?

How expensive is Mazda's maintenance compared to H and T? I think after sales service and total cost of ownership is buyers' major concern with Mazda Malaysia.

Please convince us that we will have trouble free car maintenance after Berjaya takes over -- no close shop after 3 years we purchase!

Hi All !

I test drove both the Mazda 6 2.5L and Accord 2.4L back-to-back on Sunday. Spent 1.5 hours in each showroom smile.gif

Instead of writing a lengthy review, I'll encourage questions from you guys instead  smile.gif

Cheers smile.gif

Eh friend, come on la, give some first impression feedback first!

1. Engine performance?
2. Ride comfort? performance over bumps?
3. NVH level?
