prolly early january. the dealership called me last night and said they are getting 4 in this december but all for are orange, so i guess im gonna have to wait. plus if i get the second batch, all the kinks and other stuff will be worked out a little better. the reason they dont have em in stock right now is because of our port issues. so they are still at sea, waiting to get off the boat. the salesman also said 2600 produced and 1200 are gonna be orange for sales in US and Canada[/quote]

I would suspect the new Mazda 6 is in the same port, they should have been in dealers by now.[/quote]

yup, i already have a test drive set up for both cars once they get on the lot. i know i wont buy the first one i test drive cause im gonna see if t he salesperson will let me push it a little. what do you think of the 6 anyways?

I have seen it in person, the car is very very nice. The Protege is still a protege, I would opt for the 6, you can get it with a 215hp V6 as well.

For the wife/GF, or even for yourself, you should at least give the car a look, it looks so much better in person then in pics. We are deciding on either a MINI Cooper S or a Mazda 6 for our next car. The 6 seems more realistic though.

 

yeah my wife last night is having sencond thoughts on the mazdaspeed, she said ill have too much fun with it and really doesnt wanna drive stick with kids and just herself. (WHICH I DONT UNDERSTAND) she suggested the 6, i guess thats y im gonna test drive both and see which one comes out better in the long run for my family. hopefully i can still get the mazdaspeed for myself though until i get the 510 running

 

TURBO II- sometimes you have to think rationally. Especially with a wife and kids involved. The 6 is a very nice car, looks really nice and upscale compared to the old 626, and much better then the 929.

 

yeah i know thats why im looking at the website for the 6 right now.

 

That didn't work. i was trying to get some pix posted here.

 

i'll turn on pic uploads... gimme a sec!

 

done....
