(the stance would appear to be a little wider in the photo above)
A little!!.lol

Wheel/tyres are almost outside the fenders!

I'm stoked to see it. I would guess that it will be not many months to see the production version at an auto show.

Build the Shinari, throw in the SkyActive diesel, call it the Mazda 6 coupe and be done with it.

its so large...

Looks okay. Anyway, the only good looking Mazda 6's are the ones made from 04-05. The rest are okay, but it doesn't look sportier than the ones that are made on those years.

What? Are you referring to this picture? This a test mule. That means it has the new chassis, suspension and powertrain, but the sheet metal is slapped on from the current model.

This is what it should look like... the Mazda Takeri concept is the new Mazda 6.

So, let's compare to the '05... ya, that's what I thought.

New MPS? (mazdaspeed)...i don't think.....too few sales.....

Here in EU many magazines speaks about a Paris auto show launch of production version (october 2012).

definitive design of production car surfaces in this patent application

date of filling is 2/16/2012

http://www.freepatentsonline.com/D660754.pdf

definetly a slight tuned-down Takeri

next step (2-3 months away) is the first teaser...Paris Auto Show starts at the end of September

Looks a little stubby in those pics.

Front end kept most of the Takeri styling though

usnidc 05-29-2012 02:34 PM

I think it is just a patent for the front detail:


The portion shown by broken lines is for illustrative purposes
only and forms no part of the claimed design.

ASH8 05-29-2012 04:04 PM

Good grief, how you get anything from a lined drawing is beyond me..:)

We all know the new 6 will be like the Takeri, like the CX-5 is the Minagi.

CarAndDriver 05-29-2012 08:42 PM

Hopefully we don't get stuck with a US supersized version.

ASH8 05-29-2012 08:49 PM

Me too..
