2014 Mazda6



Quote:
Visually, the Mazda6 is the company's latest expression of their Kodo ("Soul of Motion") design language and draws heavily from the company's well-received 2011 Takeri showcar. A widened, stretched version of Mazda's five-point grille is employed and it's perhaps the most attractive version of that design element to date. The grille is connected to the LED headlights via shiny bits, a design tactic reminiscent of the new BMW 3 Series.
Mazda6 Unveiled

I'm liking how the new Mazda6 looks. If this is their new corporate look, I'm liking it very much. I can't wait to see how their new Miata might look. And a possible Mazdaspeed6, maybe?

I like the look. It's not very special in any way, but it's better than the honda and toyota sedans, IMO. I really wish Mazda would try to push the envelope a bit like they did with the RX8's styling.

Great looking front end and interior - but the unibrow rear end ruins it for me. I'll have to see it in person before I can pass final judgement.

Fenders look like they came off a Charger. Not a horrible thing, but odd on this car. The Uni Brow KILLS it from behind.

The RX8 looked great compared to the rest of the nonsense Mazda builds, so did the non-smiley Miatas. This doesn't look bad, but the grille is too big imo.

I actually like the grille and entire front end. If i were to voice a complaint, it would have to do with the taillights or accent chrome on the tail lights. But you know, anything is better than the damn smiles that have been on the Mazdas lately.
