well i was one of the lucky ones and got the chance to go to road atlanta to test drive the mazdaspeed 6.

all i can tell you people is this car is amazing and if i didnt just buy a house i would drop down 30k on a mazdaspeed 6 in a heartbeat. this car is wild , fast , handles like no other , and the fun factor is right up there with a high hp rx7. the turbo spools really fast, no lag, instant throttle responce, pulls to redline, and just throws you back in the seat. its very hard to tell you how this thing sounds , but ill try. it sounds like a jet taking off , i think alot of that has to do with the 15.6 psi of boost you see just off idle.



anyways i took a few pics.

 

the guy in the brown shirt is my dorkass

 

CONGRATS!

 

Holy **** are you a midget?!

 

im a 5'8" mental midget lol, the guy all the way to the left is like 6'4"

 

These are the cars that Mazda needs to keep up the momentum. The Mazdaspeed version of the RX-8 should be awesome.



Did I mention that the sales manager at the dealership where I bought my MPV assured me that the 7 was coming back? Is this old news?

 

I'm going to see if I can go have a look at one. I think we just got them here.

 

back to your 15.6psi comment... what do you mean "off idle" like its fully spooled around 2k rpms or what?



kevin.

 

imho.. myself wouldnt go as far as statin this..
