Man, Mazda’s are so underrated... what’s wrong with people? Look at how gorgeous their entire lineups of vehicles are. Not only that but they’re reliable, and perform very well.
Much like volkswagen, people think others are better, reliable and others aren't. It's imprinted since they knew cars exist. The new 3 series are good looking but lack engine options, like the turbos etc
As an owner of a Mazda6 I can say why I didn't think of buying it earlier. I thought Mazda to be more luxurious, more expensive cars, so really impractical. If not for my wife asking "And what about Mazda?" and me then looking into their actual prices, taking a test drive and so on - I would probably have bought a Kia or even some basic Audi, thinking Mazda to be too cool for me.
Mazda’s like the Volvo of the mass market - the smaller automaker doing their own thing, punching above their weight, and not running in circles chasing the competition. Beautiful, unique, luxurious, and tailored for a special kind of buyer looking for something different. Love what they’re about.
A RUclips Channel with no name Eh, they’re different flavors. Volvos are for people who want an amazing understated luxury car, and Mazdas are for people who want beautiful design and driving characteristics for the price. Volvo’s are more luxurious and better put together than Mazdas are, but you definitely pay for it. I would definitely agree that Mazdas are a better bang for your buck deal than Volvos are, but one isn’t necessarily much better than the other as a whole.
i absolutely love the fact that you do sound system reviews and even have a section for it! You're one of my favourite car review channels! Thanks for your work. Keep it up !
If Im not mistaken Mazda uses real wood it’s called Abachi. Most people probably don’t expect non luxury brands to actually put real wood but in Mazda’s case it is especially on their Signature trim
Interesting seeing this review vs your 2018 review and seeing how your opinion changed after living with it, as my opinion also changed after living with it for awhile
I've owned a 2016 Touring MT since November 2016, and it never stops being a joy to drive. Stack on top of that being able to row your own gears in that vehicle makes for some fun twisty back road drives.
Great video! We've been a Mazda owner since '98 (626, B-3000, 2 Tributes) and just got my wife a '21 CX-5. When we got my wife's 626, I was not a Mazda fan until I drove that car. Then she couldn't keep me out of it. I leased the B-3000 truck for 3 years and it was okay, but then she bought a 2001 Tribute. We argued over who was going to drive that one, so I bought one in 2002 when my truck lease was up. We still have both Tributes and her '01 is just starting to have some mechanical issues, but it is 20 years old. Not bad and I think we definitely got our money's worth out of it. I absolutely love the cars. While we were looking at her CX-5, I nosed around the lot until I found the Mazda6. That will possibly be my next car in a couple of years.
I have a 2018 and I love it! It’s great for long drives. I put an amp and subwoofer in, and the system really rocks now! Put it in sport mode on windy roads, lots of fun!
I own a 2017 Mazda 6, its great , not gonna burn up the road, but adequate. Very reliable in terms of maintenance. Mileage is suprising good 35mpg hwy. And by the way the video using a gopro is superior, what a great vantage point.
Just got my Mazda6 Signature. Love this car for sure. Everything is so smooth. The Bose is super crisp and clear, not very much in the way of bass but if thats the trade off for clarity, I'll gladly take it.
had a 2019 mazda 3 and it was the best thing ever, sadly was hit and totaled while parked so shopping again and every other brand i’ve taken for a test drive just can’t measure up.
I think you have me convinced. I was thinking Camry but I may have to go with the Mazda 6. I just got rid of my 2010 Mazda 3 and it was an excellent little car so I have no doubt this would be a solid car.
If you want a premium vehicle from a premium brand for a bit more money, go for this.. if you’d rather spend less and have more reliability go for a Camry or corolla
I own a signature mazda 6 and for some reason, it is just addictive. You will never feel bored from how it drives and responds with you. The car's look will also won't get your head down in the streets.
How is the ride quality/comfort with the 19" wheels ? Is there any annoying vibrations at highway speeds ? I own a 17' Civic Nd there is constant tiny vibrations in the cabin/seats at highway which is annoying
@@4gamerll_4gamer54 Well if you haven't experienced any means the car is very good ! Above 140 I guess its pretty normal to have audible wind noise. I can live with that but not annoying vibrations at speed. Mazda really out did themselves with NVH in the 6
I bought my 2018 Mazda 6 two years ago. This is one of those cars where it truly does indeed transcend the spec sheets, its more than the sum of its parts, all those cliche' phrases. The engine doesn't rev much, but it also doesn't need to. It's always very responsive feels way more like a V6 than other turbo 4s that I've driven. I love looking at cars and still watch Topher a lot, but my Mazda has never left me wanting for more, even after I came from a manual 2012 Buick Regal GS tuned to 300+ hp when I bought it.
Yet another great video. Mazda really are nailing it, and we can all pretty much smell the coming RWD platforms which will just complete it. I just hope they don't price it to the moon.
LOL....there is a potato in the back. Good review! I love that white interior! Signature is on my short list later this year. Hoping for some serious deals on the '21 as they move them out and get ready to launch the next gen.
This awful high praise for a 8 year old platform. But I love mine and it really took time for me to pick up all the generous considerations made to the driver. Breakaway pedals for safety, all 4 window controls are automatic, the display placement to help keep your eyes on the road, media controls you don't need to look at, and paint you don't get tired of looking at. I hope they get the recognition they deserve.
Everything about this car is new. The chassis, engine, re-tuned trans, interior, double glass pane, more intimate driving experience... etc.... what the hell are u talking about
Great car... When it comes to the flip side of the cameras... glad mazda isn't wasting money on something that isn't necessary.. you can see what u need to just fine :) Zoom Zoom.. Love my CX-3 :)
This car is a competitor to Volvo’s S60, Acura’s TLX, Lincoln’s MKZ, BMW’s 330i, and so many more.. I’m pretty sure Mazdas are reliable but I don’t know about their engines.. I just like the aesthetics and details of these cars. Mazda is at the top for me, compared to a lot of the other brands. Beautiful and performance oriented
Yes, Mazda's are so underrated! I have owned three: 2008 3s GT, 2016 6i GT and currently picked up my 2020 CX 5 Signature. Best cars for the money, hands down. Always look forward to your reviews, thorough, honest and focused.
Great and truly helpful review! I have a Mazda 5 and wanted to go for a different brand, but TheTopher was the first to remind me how great a brand Mazda is and how gorgeous the 6 is! Never mind an Audi or any other German lux sedan. This is just as good of a car, more reliable, and far less expensive. I have test driven myself and I will say this car is swwwweeeet!
I have owned the 2010 Mazda 6, drove it till I had an accident, got bought out of the car. Got me a 2018 Mazda 6, drives amazing. I love the design, the reliability, the underrated nature of the brand. the driving is so good. I wish they made an AWD system for this car for people living in the cold winters.
I've got to say, if I'm looking to get into something, I go here. You seem to hit all of the important points for daily use. Doug Demuro may know all the quirks but this great.
I have this same exact car. Same color, everything. I LOVE IT!! I have 36k miles and zero issues. I just put new Falken Azenis F/K 460 tires on her and wow! She holds her own in a street fight. BTW.. TIP: you can use mid-grade gas and get the same high performance, and it seems to last longer. Strange but true.
I had a 2003 Mazda Tribute ES V6 AWD as my first car and it was kinda a sleeper, they might be ugly but wow it was fast, Mazda won me over when I got that, I want a Mazda 6 but I don’t need a new car payment yet
Just a quick correction, it's real wood, not faux. I have the 2018 and agree with everything you said. Haven't had the reflection issues you mentioned, maybe seat position? I'm a few inches shorter than you.
Wow! In addition to this being a fantastic driver's car, the Bose sound system sounds fantastic on my home theater system! It's as if I'm playing the music.
I think this is one of the least talked about gens in the used car market. It's more stylish and luxurious than Toyota and Honda but much cheaper than Lexus and Acura alternatives.
I just watched the BMW 3 series review and now this. Tbh I did not get any feeling that I switched from luxury to a mainstream car. I still felt like I was watching a luxury car review. Mazda just needs to catch up on technology and a panoramic sunroofs in the cars
@TheTropher, top notch presentation. I have a question for you, today I test drove an Accord Ex-L. I like everything with it except the driver and passenger seats, the seats are very low(guess Honda make them for sporty sitting) but I feel difficult to get out of an Accord driver seat and the same with passenger seat and even when I am getting inside. I test drove 20 Camry-SE and It was easy for me and didn't feel same way. How does the Mazda feel of seats like getting out/in of car? I am planning to test drive a Mazda 6 coming this weekend.
I love this car. My only complaint is the highway gearing and fuel economy. 6th gear is far too short to the point that the car struggles to consistently get even 32 mpg on the highway. Considering my Corvette with a v8 gets the same highway fuel economy I'm not sure why Mazda didnt provide a 7th gear.
I Got the same car, at 110 km/h on the highway, with 4 adult, the boot full, front ventilated seat max out and medium A/C my fuel consomption was 38 MPG

My biggest problem with them, is that while yes, it is a "quick" sedan and sportier..I wished it revved higher. Maybe it's just me but it sounds like it wants to rev out more and just..shifts early
@@bassandtrebleclef Almost exactly what comes to mind when I hear it wind out. I love everything else about it but that's a pretty big part so...probably a pass from me, just not my preference
@@Nadbull49 That'd make sense, a bit disappointing (for me, who likes them revs); but I'm sure it's still enjoyable and reliable, hopefully the rumors of the i6 are true, but I haven't looked into that
The one and only thing I don't like about Mazda is the new key fob. Overly large and hollow and the buttons are way too small. The old fob was alot better tbh. Will probably buy the upcoming turbo Mazda 3 as soon as it's available though!
They changed it because they realized the buttons were easily damaged because it was on the face of the fob, although it looked better it wasn’t practical. Now the buttons on the side are more protected on drops and will ultimately last longer. They’re smart for changing it, who looks at your fob anyways as long as it works
My 2016 Mazda 6 has 70k miles and has gone through 4 OEM batteries, valve cover gasket is leaking, hydronic belt tensioner is leaking, had a misfire and had to replace a leaking fuel injector, brakes wear out fast and front rotors warp extremely quick. I wouldn't call that great reliability so far.
Mine isn't the turbo model.@@minimat098 When I was driving 400+ miles a week to school (interstate miles) I had my MPG anywhere from 33-35. Now I don't do much highway driving and it's around 28mpg. Car has 53k miles on it, bought it with 46k.
thinking about a Mazda 6 for my first car, would that be a safe bet for a new driver? if not, please suggest other starter cars for me to look at! thanks
I was impressed with the natural induction noise in your drive in the turbocharged 2018. This newer 2020 sounds far worse with fake electronic noises coming through the speakers. Mazda, you got it right the first time. Don’t mess with a good thing.
It also appears to be tuned less aggressively with a weaker top end. It seems odd that they dropped output from 250 to 227. Is that what customers wanted? I don’t think so 😂
just and FYI all Mazda signatures models have real wood it is not fake wood. Mazda6 CX9 and CX5 all have real wood. Great videos keep up the good work.
Sound system demos are really appreciated and nobody else does it.
Because other cars cant match it

My biggest problem with them, is that while yes, it is a "quick" sedan and sportier..I wished it revved higher. Maybe it's just me but it sounds like it wants to rev out more and just..shifts early
Agreed. Another reviewer described the engine as diesel like. Gotta agree and it doesn't sound all that great either.
I read somewhere that they make it like that intentionally sp it'd be more reliable
@@bassandtrebleclef Almost exactly what comes to mind when I hear it wind out. I love everything else about it but that's a pretty big part so...probably a pass from me, just not my preference
@@Nadbull49 That'd make sense, a bit disappointing (for me, who likes them revs); but I'm sure it's still enjoyable and reliable, hopefully the rumors of the i6 are true, but I haven't looked into that
Yep. Mazda desperately needs to update their trans/powertrains. Not to mention the infotainment.
Taking a moment to appreciate the faint sound of Pink Floyd's "Another brick in the wall" playing somewhere at a distance.

Mazdas and the color red goes hand in hand
You sure do love that mazda 6
The one and only thing I don't like about Mazda is the new key fob. Overly large and hollow and the buttons are way too small. The old fob was alot better tbh. Will probably buy the upcoming turbo Mazda 3 as soon as it's available though!
They changed it because they realized the buttons were easily damaged because it was on the face of the fob, although it looked better it wasn’t practical. Now the buttons on the side are more protected on drops and will ultimately last longer. They’re smart for changing it, who looks at your fob anyways as long as it works
HeyZeus M AGREED! I will never understand people who cry over a key fob...
2:00, there's a spare tire!!!!
I prefer the accord interior but have a lot of respect for the Mazda. Great cars.
My 2016 Mazda 6 has 70k miles and has gone through 4 OEM batteries, valve cover gasket is leaking, hydronic belt tensioner is
leaking, had a misfire and had to replace a leaking fuel injector, brakes wear out fast and front rotors warp extremely quick. I
wouldn't call that great reliability so far.
I wish Mazda would bring the Skyactiv X to the United States. Excellent review. Thanks
All car reviews lack something and that is the horn test! maybe you can be the pioneer in this field!
I just wish they had all-wheel drive as an option. Also the wood is not faux, in the Signature it's real wood, sen wood. :)
Great review. I think I'd go for the Honda Accord Sport, though, just because it has the manual stick shift option.
I adore my 2019 Mazda 6 Touring.
how many mile you got with the 2.5t ?
Mine isn't the turbo model.@@minimat098 When I was driving 400+ miles a week to school (interstate miles) I had my MPG anywhere from 33-35. Now I don't do much highway driving and it's around 28mpg. Car has 53k miles on it, bought it with 46k.
thinking about a Mazda 6 for my first car, would that be a safe bet for a new driver? if not, please suggest other starter cars for me to look at! thanks
Probs too late, but yeah it would be a solid first car. They’re good cars that are nice and drive nice and will be pretty reliable.
The Topher with his voice would be succesful in a movie trailer industry. 😀
I was impressed with the natural induction noise in your drive in the turbocharged 2018. This newer 2020 sounds far worse with fake electronic noises coming through the speakers. Mazda, you got it right the first time. Don’t mess with a good thing.
It also appears to be tuned less aggressively with a weaker top end. It seems odd that they dropped output from 250 to 227. Is that what customers wanted? I don’t think so 😂
I drove this car and it was great, but those hard bumps on the road were awful and came right through the cabin. Smooth rodes, car was amazing.
It's real wood by the way
227 HP 310 Torque that's pretty nice
just and FYI all Mazda signatures models have real wood it is not fake wood. Mazda6 CX9 and CX5 all have real wood. Great videos keep up the good work.
Also I wish Mazda would go with light grey instead of white leather because white leather is nearly impossible to keep clean.
Put some good zebra seat covers over the seats.
@@Krzrrazrrokr Or just get black seats lol
