2009 - 2013 Mazda6 S Grand Touring, with the 3.7 V6. 272 HP. I've always thought these were so sexy.

The only obstacle is how rare these things are. Almost all second gen 6s were four-cylinders. Of course, I love the 2014+ (third gen) 6s with the SkyActiv, but those are out of my price range for the foreseeable future.

Oh well. My current car will be sticking around for a long-ish while, since I'm currently unemployed. At least I don't have a car payment!

Only found 1 v6 near me. Wow it's clean though.

I don't even think we got the V6's down here in Australia. but I followed a Mazda 6 mps for about 5 hours the other day on a long trip down to Melbourne and wondered how much more comfortable they were than me.

We looked at several CX-9s before buying our CX-5. I loved the CX-9 but we decided it was too big since we don't even have any kids lol

I remember a 2009 V6 mazda6 was used in the movie "Premium Rush" as a corrupt detective's car. It made for an interesting car choice, and definitely made me appreciate these mazdas!
