Um, I tried going to the site. They don't have a pic of the Mazda6 Hatchback and the only pics I see are of the 4dr sedan.

It looks almost exactly like the sedan. I couldn't really tell the difference except for the tail is a little shorter.

Exactly. I think a lot of people hear hatchback and they're expecting something like a Protege5. It's basically just the sedan except they replaced the trunk and rear windshield with a hatch.

Does know one remember the "89 626 GT turbo? The back hatch was the same as the new 6.

Yes, I saw one the other day...Kind of cool, I didn't know they made a car like that.

I like the way the hatchback one looks compared to the sedan. Hmm I thought for a second I saw a taurus with a mazda badge when I saw the pictures of the blue sedan from the front...

Can't say I agree there - the Vibe (and Matrix) is TALL TALL TALL - like a mini-minivan.

The 6 is a nice low lean ride - like our Proteges.

favorable review of Mazda 6 by Edmunds!

best quote:

"Overall, driving the car is a blast. The Mazda 6 is more fun than most midsize sedans on the market. Plenty of the credit for this goes to its superior blend of steering, brakes, suspension and driver comfort. It's like a Protegé ES, pumped up a couple of sizes. Lots of fun, and we can't wait to sample the V6."
