Mazda 6 MPS

Got these photos off the Paris Motor Show. Dissapointed with the power output, so much for the 300bhp that Mazda initially stated. It looks like it will be more around the 255 - 260bhp mark, unless Mazda is overstating it's engine capacities as it has in the past. As far as the shape, back end looks humungous and the front looks bulbous. For a car thats meant to be "sporty", it looks like a big fat
4-door American sedan. The Subaru Liberty GT is much more appealling in all aspects.

Forgot to mention the wheels YUCK.

Cheers
Michael

I don't mind the look of it too much.
Looks like a hybrid of a 3 and a 6 even though it's based on the 6.

260hp should still be adequate for the audience that it's targetted at (i.e. Liberty GT, Audi A4T, etc).

Seems alot of Jap manufacturers are going AWD.
I read an article today stating that the next Honda Legend (Yes! LEGEND) will have a 300hp 3.5L N/A V6 with AWD.
