If you're looking for a sedan, back away from the Accord-Camry mind meld and consider the Mazda 6. Here is a fun-to-drive and stylish challenger to the sedan crown, with sporty road manners, exciting styling and a great price. Granted, some think that the interior is a bit small, but all in all the Mazda 6 is an excellent choice. Through October 3, you can get a $1,000 to $2,000 rebate off the price of a 2005 model. Available as a four-door, five passenger family sedan, sports hatch, or station wagon, the Mazda 6 comes with two engine choices: A 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine that generates 160 horsepower and is rated at 23 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway, or a 220-horsepower 3.0-liter V6 engine rated at 20 mpg in the city and 27 mpg on the highway. Indeed, just why this vehicle continues to be offered with a rebate is surprising. Chances are, if the nameplate read “Toyota” instead of “Mazda,” there would be talk of boosting production and price – as opposed to cutting the MSRP.
