Changed my -03 to a face lift - Mazda 6 Forums : Mazda 6 / Mazda Atenza Forum

Today I signed the contract for a new face lifted version.
But I still think that the old looked better.

Wee

I looked at it at a dealer. Not to bad. The new wheels and stuff look rather nice. Only cons are the lame front and that they don't come with the rear wing!

The new OEM body kit doesn't look bad. A bit edgier, but nice.

I like the new dark cherry colour on the facelifted 6. What colour did you get? What colour was the 03 you traded in?

I changed a pacific blue to a silver contrail.
And I paid 600€ to get that rear wing.

The new body kit is very nice but a bit expensive.

Must add, yes the new front is lame!

I was at the IAA in Frankfurt too. The new bodykit looks good. Less 'flashy'. I will post some pics soon too

Congrats with your buy. I also like the first one more but the new Mazda6 is much better. Less noicy, more comfortable and the 6-speed manual is very smooth. Too bad of the frontbumper, the gauges behind the steeringwheel and the bling-bling dashboard.. hideous..

Are the cloth seats the same in the '03 to the '06 or did they change those too?

OK... 600€ for the rear wing... Damn Mazda Sweden! I'm amazed now that we got 17" wheels on the 2.3. Who knows maybe that could have been charged extra for as well!

Well.. looks loke they ditched it for the whole Europe (wing).
And for the price ...
The model I choosed costs 29000€ in Germany and I will pay 27000€ in Sweden.
I got 16500€ for my car, three years and 55000km, rather good because I bought it for 22000€.
