Exterior - What the Auto Press Says

Mazda has given its new midsize sedan one of the boldest looks available in a family car.  Pronounced fender flares, a swooping greenhouse -- even the exhaust tips are jauntily pointed affairs. So far, the press is in love with the look.

• "The styling isn't conservative and the manners aren't boring. But with its flowing roofline similar to oxymoronic four-door coupes and real coupes like the Audi TT, wraparound overhangs that appear shorter than they are, and sleeker lines overall, the Mazda6 comes across as a smaller, trimmer car than the relatively box-like Accord. front fenders are signature Mazda: the edgiest front-end in the mid-size market." -- New Car Test Drive
• "Marvelous. Not tortured, no gratuitous trim or sculpting. Clean flanks, tail and schnoz. Applause." -- USA Today
• "The exteriors [of all trims] were virtually identical, and strikingly handsome by the standards of midprice, midsize sedans... there's no mistaking the Mazda sedan 6 for generic Japanese-Korean suburb-mobiles. " -- New York Times
• "We think the new 6 manages to be tautly attractive, particularly from the front, despite its additional 6.1 inches of length and 2.3 inches of width." -- Edmunds
• "The look is all-Mazda from every angle except behind, where it bears a strong resemblance to a Toyota Camry." -- Detroit Free Press
