Around June of this year, I got a new addition to the car family, the 2015 Mazda 6. Brand new, for ~$21,500 and a deep crystal blue pearl exterior.



























I love this car. Aside from the infotainment system, which can be slow and buggy at times, there are many things I love about the car, such as the ride and handling characteristics.


Let's jump to now:




I now have accumulated about 6,9xx miles and took it into service once so far. I'm sure this car will last me a good while, and I don't have any plans to replace it in the future.​
 
One of my cousins back east has an '11 Mazda 6. I believe it's an i Sport like yours; whatever the base model is, that's it. After driving it a couple times during my last visit, I found it to be a rather pleasant car. It didn't quite have that tank-like feel that I prefer, but the car didn't feel tinny and cheap either. If anything, it felt light on the road. All aspects of driving came easy in that car. The steering was very light but reasonably sharp, and the car cruised quite comfortably at highway speeds. The brakes were pretty linear for a non-sporting car, and the transmission was pretty good about maintaining the right gear for cruising. It wasn't a particularly remarkable car an any way, but I was surprised at how well-suited it was for regular driving. Your 6 is better-equipped than my cousin's, too. Hers was roughly $20k, but had wheel covers and lacked a screen on the inside. But yeah, nice cars these are. I especially like the tasteful interior design they're sporting now.
