Latest from Mazada dealers (US) is that the Mazdaspeed 6 is due in March. Turbo and AWD. Expected to generate 280hp.
That's not the Mazda6 coming to our shores. Yes it has those options in the Pacific rim countries, but it's not coming here right away.

I'm waiting for the ACURA TSX ( JDM ACCORD). I was reading import tuner and it's gonna hit the showrooms in 2004. The 03 JDM ACCORD looks so much better than our accords! I think the TSX is gonna compete w/ Mazda 6.

for synchros, http://www.howstuffworks.com/transmission2.htm go to the last or 2nd to last paragraph to start reading up. synchros are the reason why we don't have to double clutch anymore.

and i agree, looks like the 6 is going heads up with the accord or tsx. i'd rather say the accords cuz the tsx, being an Acura, doesn't seem in the same class... but oh well.

One more thing that cheeses me off about this campaign:

"More sports than sedan."

Now, if my understanding is right, a sedan is classified as a car with 4 doors. It's not a quanitity. So, how in the hell can it be more of one thing than something that HAS NO FREAKING QUANTITY! It either has four doors or it doesnt! That's like saying "more nacho than cheese," "more beer than light" or some ****. You get my point.
