2006 MazdaSpeed 6 AWD Turbo

Here is my info and take on the car first:
Very low production # of a factory built Hi Performance Sedan.
Im helping a good friend sell his well maintained, almost anal retentive
to the point 2006 MazdaSpeed 6. Adult owned and driven this car has
not been beat on or raced on a regular basis. The car has never been in
the snow and because Az gets about 12" of rain a YEAR, its hardly ever
been driven in the rain.
The owner is actually more of a 4x4 guy, but wanted something cool
fast and different, so about a yr or so ago this was the answer to
the vehicle he was looking for instead of driving his lifted 4x4 everyday.

If you are looking at the auction you may already know a little bit
about how rare these cars and and how well designed these cars are
out of the box from the factory. Built to take on other AWD cars in its
class, STi , Evo etc and Mazda did it very well and under the radar.

DRIVETRAIN: Turbo AWD 2.3L w a 6 spd // All dealer maintained

INTERIOR: Super clean and well kept leather is in better shape
then you may expect. Even for a 7 yr old car, its in great condition.

Dont expect NEW, but check out the pics.
Owner is a Non smoker too. Tinted windows normal for AZ

SUSPENSION: All stock original down to the OE alloy rims
Rides and drives great. A few of the rims do have some road
rash, but its all cosmetic.

BODY: All original body panels and paint .
Shown in the last few pics near the bottom youll see
the pics of the obvious damage.
Door ding / scuff on the lower front bumper / and small
split in the lower front air dam bumper area.

Keep in mind its a 7 yr old car.

The owners name is Jordan and you can email him directly
at (jordan@thetechkeys.com)
or email us thru ebay if you want. Scammers dont bother haha.

Now here is the info supplied to me by the owner for the ad:

I am sad to sell my 2006 Mazdaspeed6 but I am moving to LA and will be buying a different, more appropriate car for the Ca surroundings

The car has 94,889 miles on it and is in near perfect condition. The body has a few small dings but that is about it. All work performed on this car was done here in Tucson at the Jim Click Mazda dealer on auto mall. I have very thorough records of all work -scanned as PDF's that I can provide digitally, printed, or both. The work includes very expensive wear items like the rear differential, AWD coupler, timing belt, valve job, and emissions system update - all already done professionally. On top of that I have had every single small detail fixed at the dealer and will continue to do so till the car sells. All oil changes done on schedule at dealer as well.

2014 Mazda CX-5 with 2.5-liter Skyactiv engine

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Back in October, we compared the relative merits of two new and very good small crossovers: the 2013 Ford Escape and 2013 Mazda CX-5. The CX-5 we tested then had Mazda's 2.0-liter Skyactiv-G engine under its hood, and it managed to just edge out the EcoBoosted Ford despite being down by some 23 horsepower and 34 pound-feet of torque. Had it been available, the 2.5-liter Skyactiv engine that we recently had the opportunity to try out in the 2014 Mazda CX-5, it may have made that comparison even easier to call in the Japanese CUV's favor.
Clearly, if you're in the market for a reasonably sized crossover, the CX-5 should, at the very least, be on your test-drive list. The new engine offering will let buyers opt for a stronger powerplant, with 184 hp and 185 lb-ft on tap. On our second day in Austin's Hill Country - the first was spent quick-spinning the 2014 Mazda6 i Sport, you'll recall - we covered a couple of hundred miles and put the new CX-5 through its paces; here's what we turned up.
Driving Notes

Tow truck driver hilariously bad at righting a flipped Mazda

Wed, 30 Oct 2013

Can rolling your car get any worse? The correct answer is yes, as this poor soul found out when he rolled his Mazda3 onto its side. Calling a tow truck might be a logical, post-rollover move, but in this case, it kind of made the situation worse.
We don't want to give away just what happened, so you'll need to scroll down and watch the video. A fair warning, though, it does contain a moment of colorful language towards the end, so watching it at work, with the volume up, might not be wise. Have a look below for the full video.

Masamichi Kogai new Mazda president and CEO

Fri, 10 May 2013

There's some executive rearranging going on in the top suite at Mazda Motor Corporation in Japan, with current CEO Takashi Yamanouchi telling reporters there "I'd like to hand over the work to younger people" now that the company has returned to profitability. Yamanouchi became CEO on November 19, 2008 of an independent Mazda that had to fight for its future in the immediate aftermath of the global financial crisis. What followed was four years of losses before finally getting back to black last year.
Masamichi Kogai (pictured) will be appointed the new president and CEO on June 25, pending approval at the company's annual general shareholders' meeting. Kogai assisted Seita Kanai with the production-efficiency initiative that Mazda called Mono Tsukuri Innovation, which worked to give export-dependent Mazda the best chance at profitability in spite of a rising yen. Kogai, lately in charge of production and purchasing, has been with the company since 1977 and worked in areas from R&D to logistics.
Kanai, who headed the Mono Tsukuri effort and was among the leadership on Skyactiv, will be promoted from executive vice president to vice chairman. Akira Marumoto will become executive VP of Mazda and assistant to new president Kogai. Yamanouchi will remain Chairman of the Board. There's a short press release below to make it official.
