I had to snicker when I saw the category the Mazda6 was listed under, but compared to other 4-door "family" sedans, it made sense.

Why did the Mazda6 make the sporty car class?

Also for the first time in years, Honda's Accord was not rated a Best Buy.

As I mentioned before with the 6, if you check out the cars they call "sporty", and compare them individually with the other in their class (say a Mazda6 versus an Accord, Camry, Malibu, etc.), I'll agree that the cars they chose are "sportier" than the others.

The car is a good buy, if its used. It depreciates so much in value.
