Well, the front view looks cool, but I'll with hold any sort of real judgement untill I see the rest of the car and it's specs.

Not that thrilled with it....the "mean" look I've come to love is long gone, along with its svelt figure. Introducing the 2008 Mazda Camzera.

...They turned it into an 'old person car' [:@]It looks too much like a Honda or Toyota to me *sigh* Ah well, I still love my '05, and it's gonna be a long while before I can or will get another car, so it's whatever.

Wow!! I always seem to be in the minority with things. Most of the comments seem to be negative. I think the new Mazda6 looks like the Mercedes CLS550 which I think is one of the most gorgeous 4-dr sedans on the planet. I was wondering what Mazda would do to improve the Mazda6 which I think is the best looking mid-size car there is. I think they have outdone themselves. The car is gorgeous.

I think it looks far more like the love child of a Camry and a Hyundai Azera. Hopefully that's not the actual grill it'll be getting. That chrome mustache is played out.

Doesn't look bad, but it's not as exciting to look at as the current versions.

Hey All,

I'm new to this forum so go easy on me!

I am the engineer responsible for the design of the front and rear suspension springs on the new Mazda6. I agree with most of you that the car looks too much like a Camry or Accord. The power is up (275hp, 305 lb-ft for the V6).

Also, the car will debut in Fall 08 as a 2009MY, not 2008...sorry!
