Setting a new standard is the Mazda 6, our Best Sport Sedan. A youthful replacement for the aging 626, it delivers an energy and dynamic driving feel long missing from Mazda sedans. A new double-wishbone suspension and instant steering response make the 6 an absolute blast to drive!

The fast-and-furious styling also fits perfectly with the brand's ''Zoom-Zoom'' marketing, with the 6's energy in motion best provided by an available 3.0-liter V6 engine. It pumps out 220 horsepower. Yet the 6 still carries a base price of only $21,620!

The 6 not only sets a new performance standard for Mazda, but for all affordable front- wheel drive sport sedans.
