This is an A-spec version of the 6. I could find any info on it because I found it on a japanese site. Hopefully it comes out soon.

Good lord, I NEED one of those! Good work Mazda, and lets see that baby hit the North American market to kick the crap out of the EVO and WRX STi!

This car looks SWEET. There's always a chance this car could come to our shores as the Mazdaspeed 6. I least that's what I'm hoping.

Thumbs up

This is from an article on msn.com
http://carpoint.msn.com/advice/stand...021211&src=msn to be exact...


Mazda
While Mazda did not debut any models that are coming to the U.S. right away, there is hope that one of them will make it. A concept based on the Mazda6 (which does go on sale in America next spring replacing the 626), is called the MPS and it has some pretty impressive stats. Featuring what Mazda calls "Sophisticated High Performance", the Mazda6 MPS gives an example of what a top-of-the-range Mazda6 could be. The MPS sports a new version of Mazda's five-pointed grille, an enlarged front bumper, flared wheel arches and 18-inch Michelin Pilot Sport tires. Power comes from a 2.3-liter turbocharged engine producing 280 horsepower and is driven through a full-time all-wheel drive system.

280 hp is sweet!
Joe

Wrong!

The whole dame rest of the world get the better stuff than us.
For instant the Protege5, the Japan/Asia version gets HID headlamps, 4wheeldrive, 170hp engine, and even an optional turbo.

The style and outlook of this concept sure kick the *** of BMW M3 and Mit. Evo. VIII.
The big ait damp looks like it could stick a turbo with a huge intercooler there.

The yellow on shonw in the photo lower at the page looks very simular to an yellow color Audi A4, but meaner.

Just can't resist a nice car like this.
The Mazda6 already looks good, this concept one looks even better.
