2006 Mazda 6 S Sport Hatchback

GENERAL INFORMATION
You are bidding on a 2006 Mazda 6 S Sport Hatchback 5-door, 3.0L 6cyl automatic transmission. Standard options are included and listed in the details above and below this section. The color is a silver-bluish. I am listing this auction for a neighbor and will do my best to answer any questions regarding this particular vehicle.

As reported in the vehicle history report, this vehicle was ORIGINALLY (first owner) used as a rental vehicle. It has since changed hands through several college students/dealers. All of this information is fully disclosed in the report, so READ IT. The AutoCheck score is within range of similar vehicles. Any post-purchase claims regarding information which is freely provided in the vehicle history report will be ignored. The title is CLEAN with NO ACCIDENTS, NO CLAIMS, and NO LOSSES.

Current owner purchased this vehicle from Fairfield Auto Group in Pennsylvania last year as a leased vehicle for $12,000. The car is currently on loan with the title held by a local credit union. Once payment clears and the loan is paid off, the title will be obtained from the lender and sent to the buyer. This could take up to a week depending on payment processing time.

This vehicle is sold as-is with no warranty express or implied. That said, the car is in great condition and passed PA inspection in May with no problems or advisories reported. The oil was last changed in May and the vehicle has been driven very little since (~1,000 miles).

THE RESERVE PRICE IS CURRENTLY SET AT THE AMOUNT STILL OWED ON THE LOAN. Please do not ask what the reserve price is; in the interest of a fair auction, it will not be disclosed. This item is also listed for sale locally. I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

Acceptable methods of payment include cash, Paypal (for deposit), and/or CERTIFIED bank check. The vehicle will ONLY be disbursed to buyer's possession ONCE PAYMENT HAS CLEARED IN FULL.

Buyer is responsible for shipping or pickup! If you're not willing to travel to pick up the vehicle, I recommend using uShip. If you've never used uShip before, it works as a reverse bidding process. You place an "auction" for the item you want to ship, and various transportation contractors put in a bid for how much they estimate it will cost them to pick up and deliver the vehicle to you. Contractors place competing bids at lower and lower prices until you find a satisfactory price which you are willing to pay. For example, Contractor A may place a bid to deliver the car for $500. Contractor B may have to travel a shorter distance for pickup and may place a bid for $435. Contractor C has little overhead and offers the best available price, $365, and you think this is agreeable and accept the contract. It's that simple!

Thanks for your interest in this vehicle. If you have any questions, PLEASE do not hesitate to contact me and I will get back to you within a few hours!
Happy Bidding!

Mazda CX-6: How a wagon could sell better than the Mazda6

Tue, Mar 6 2018

There is no Mazda CX-6. It doesn't exist, nor have we talked to anyone at Mazda about its existence. However, let me now say that there SHOULD be a Mazda CX-6, or to put it another way, a Mazda6 Wagon that's been Allroad-ified with a modestly raised suspension, plastic body cladding and all-wheel drive. You know, the way Americans prefer their wagons. During the Regal TourX launch, Buick's product planning folks pointed out that such a crossover wagon (let's go with that term for now) filled a market niche that's really not being satisfied. One that's more stylish and luxurious than a Subaru Outback, but more functional and less expensive than an Audi Allroad. It would cater to people who seek something different from the norm, both in terms of brand and body style. Sure, it's certainly not a big market niche, but it is seemingly growing. Well, if Buick is indeed onto something and that growth continues, then Mazda could most definitely go after that same market niche. Sure, it's a small niche, but all three Mazda6 generations have sold in such minuscule numbers (33,402 in 2017), why not try something completely different? I could easily see a CX-6 outselling its sedan sibling. Such a Mazda crossover wagon would only have a Buick and Subaru as competition, as opposed to trying to draw customers away from the Honda Accord, Toyota Camry and every other midsize sedan at a time when the entire segment is hemorrhaging sales. It would also nicely complement a lineup of crossovers that includes the CX-3, CX-5 and CX-9, providing yet another alternative to entice customers. View 30 Photos Let me also say that, having driven both the Regal TourX and a Mazda6, that the two could be cross-shopped. I'd argue the Mazda actually has a more luxurious cabin than the supposedly "premium" Regal, while Mazda's new turbocharged 2.5-liter (250 horsepower, 310 pound-feet of torque) outdoes the Buick's potent 2.0-liter. Meanwhile, the Mazda6's standard, naturally aspirated 2.5-liter (184 hp, 185 lb-ft) should offer comparable fuel economy as the Subaru Outback (28 mpg combined) without making you suffer through a CVT. Now, as for adding all-wheel drive, the Japanese market version of both the sedan and wagon (known as the Atenza) can apparently be had with it. Can it be packaged with the turbocharged engine? That's another question, but all the other pieces are seemingly in place to bring the Mazda6 wagon to the United States.

Mazda goes on engineer hiring binge as recovery picks up speed

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

Japan's larger automakers - companies like Toyota, Honda and Nissan - have tremendous engineering talent at their disposal. That's largely because, selling as many cars as they do, they've got more revenues to tap into. Logic might dictate, then, that smaller automakers like Mazda, which no longer has the deep pockets afforded to it by its former partnership with Ford, might have less of a budget and workforce for engineering. But Mazda has been raking in record profits, and it plans on cashing those revenues in by hiring a substantial new pool of engineers.
According to Automotive News, Mazda is preparing to hire as many as 185 new engineers over the next two years - almost four times as many as the 50 engineers it previously targeted. Many of those engineers will be put to work developing the second-generation, Skyactiv 2 technologies that are on the drawing board while the first round of Skyactiv features are still being rolled out.
The boost in recruitment is enabled by a positive fiscal year that ended last March, marking the first profits Mazda had logged in four years. Sources anticipate that the fiscal year culminating at the end of this month will mark the company's most profitable yet, netting over a billion dollars to eclipse the fiscal year that ended in 2008 when it recorded $872.5 million in profits.

Mazda-Toyota partnership has us dreaming of a rotary hybrid

Mon, Aug 7 2017

As you may have seen, Mazda and Toyota are going to be working a little more closely with each other. In their announcement, the two companies said they'd be building an American assembly plant together, and working on electric vehicle technology. But one of the companies' goals got our mental gears turning: It's listed as "Expand complementary products," and it's left very open-ended. The companies say they "will further explore the possibilities of other complementary products on a global level." These are in addition to Mazda providing the Mazda2 to Toyota as the Yaris iA, and Toyota providing Mazda a commercial van to sell in Japan. So what could these future complementary products be? We have a couple of ideas, one that's ludicrous but awesome (and, sadly, probably won't ever happen), and the other grounded in reality. Let's start with the fun one. What's the one thing Mazda fan has been wanting for years? A rotary sports car, of course! And while Mazda has repeatedly said that it has a small band of engineers plugging away at the spinning triangle problem, the odds of Mazda putting it into production have been slim. The inherent thirst of the rotary would make it tough to introduce when fuel economy regulations have been tightening. Plus, Mazda is a small company that needs to stretch every dollar, and having a one-off engine not based on anything else would be expensive. How could Mazda get around these obstacles? This is where the partnership with Toyota comes in, in our long-shot fantasy. Aside from having deep pockets, Toyota has a wealth of knowledge in the realm of hybrids. Thus, why not a rotary hybrid? Electrifying their oddball motor would fix two issues. One is obviously the fuel economy, since the gas engine wouldn't have to run all the time. The other is in providing torque. Rotaries infamously have little torque, especially down low, so adding an electric motor would allow this hypothetical rotary sports car to have a grunty low end, while still providing the Everest-high redline rotary fans like. The idea would be sweetened with the solid-state batteries that Toyota is developing, which could provide lots of electricity without weighing a ton. The rotary-electric mashup notion isn't totally alien to Mazda, either, since the company created an electric Mazda2 with a rotary engine for a range extender — albeit for different reasons. The company even filed a patent for the rotary range extender recently.
