Own Mazda 6 mps. Can\'t vouch for mazdaspeed6. But my car I love to drive want a drivers car you got it, want power you got it, want a confortable car and people thinking you got a common Mazda , with no power you got it. Press the accelerator you got it. If you don\'t have one of these cars time to at least test drive one. Make your own mind up. Have fun lol

This is a fair bit heavier than the mazda3, I thought it would a little slower than this.

i test drove a 3mps 2007 plate, it felt very quick however i felt that it coudnt handle the power through the front wheels over rougher road surfaces. I then test drove a 2006 mazda6 mps and it felt a lot more sure footed, stable and smooth over rougher road surfaces than the 3mps, so for that reason i bought the 6mps and have not regretted it since.....its speed is very deceptive!!

The track times are outstanding. I am so glad I own this car.
It really rocks. An everyday hero.

Just to clarify things, the 6MPS sells in asia/europe with 190kW (255hp). The Mazdaspeed6 is for North America with 270hp (201kW) as the yanks always need more power. Oddly the 380Nm/280lb-ft torque stays the same between the two models? As an owner, must say this is a great everyday car that can hassle highly focused sports cars, 70mph to stop in just 155 feet!

the Mazda 6 MPS is a slightly detuned version of the Mazdaspeed6 that was available in the US, so the power data is accurate.

The data is inaccurate. The 2006 Mazdaspeed 6 is 274 HP and most roadtests show it to be 0-60 in 5.2-5.4 seconds.
