I can’t for the life of me figure out what family-sedan shopper wouldn’t be tempted by the Mazda6. The ride is extremely comfortable, there’s plenty of power, it looks great and it packs a ton of features at a price that beats the competition.

The 2011 Mazda6 is like that nice guy who wins your heart after you’ve finished dating bad boys. It’s an affordable, good-looking midsize sedan that could easily win over car shoppers if only given a chance.

Jason Udy Jason Udy Score Pending 2012 Mazda 6 Sedan

The Mazda6 i Sport remains a solid choice in the midsize segment for a family of five that doesn’t want or need an SUV, has a budget of less than $22,000, and isn’t worried about waiting for the new model.

Mazda has earned a reputation as a purveyor of driver-oriented vehicles, and the 6 more or less stays true to that. However, Mazda needs to step up its game a bit in terms of fuel economy.

The Mazda 6 is an acceptable car if you’re looking at cars as a transportation appliance, but for those who demand more out of their $25,000 car purchase, there must be a dozen vehicles that are more attractive.
