A garage located in Ontario landed a 2009 Mazda6 and one keen individual busted out the camera phone to show the world. The chitter chatter on the VWVortex message boards, where the shots originally surfaced, suggests it's a press car being readied for what we could assume is a press event or a review. That means it should be in the shop at least 12 more times this month. If you still need more eye candy, check out more Mazda 6 interior and exterior photos of the 2009 Mazda6. More »

Though now we're waiting for info on the European 2010 Mazda6 MPS, we've still been waiting for more pics of the North American 2009 Mazda6. Thankfully, the Canadians were nice enough to post them to their Mazda site. Thanks Canada. As you'll remember, the North American Mazda6 gets the 2.5-liter inline four-cylinder available in Europe, as well as a version of the 3.7-liter V6 found in the CX-9. More »

Mazda today released the first photos of the 2009 Mazda6. Clearly embracing Ford's kinetic design, this new generation sedan looks more like the Ford Mondeo than the previous generation's Mazda6. According to the company, this vehicle will go on sale at the end of summer 2008. How does our version differ from the European Mazda6? First, the North American model is slightly larger than the other version with handing and comfort designed for American road conditions (whatever that means). In addition to the base 2.5-liter inline four-cylinder available in Europe, Americans will be getting a version of the 3.7-liter V6 found in the CX-9. The fourbanger gets a six-speed manual transmission or five-speed automatic while the V6 gets only the six-speed automatic with manual shift. Unfortunately, the press release says that the "North American Mazda6 will be available only as a four-door sedan." Let's hope that doesn't stick. Press release below the jump. More »
