This guy has some serious calf muscles.
I have been following mazda6 2014 reviews and so far your review is more convincing and informative. Thanks for all the awesome reviews bro!
@Bart ten Thije, would you prefer my 'quiet' voice? In all seriousness, I was without my wireless microphones for this shoot and had to talk louder for the cameras internal microphone. Now you know but I'm sure you've watched my other reviews and have complimented me on my 'normal' voice, right? - Dave
Thanks appreciated! your video reviews are pretty neat and decent and i always watch your reviews so i can get have a better insight of the new cars.
Dave Erickson is the best automobile reviewer I've found in youtube, love this channel, keep posting videos like this, loved it!
I actually like the energy in his reviews :) Subscribed!
earned my sub, loved your Mazda3 review with the "oh blank" handles
Thank you so much :) was desperately waiting for it
Excellent review ! Very detailed , thanks.
@Barry Stacy, I hope so too, thanks for the suggestion and my thoughts are with you on those long commutes - Dave
Wonderful review! Wish to see you OnLY in next review, thanks Dave!
Great review as always. One of my top 5 review channels I go to when looking up cars. and to add to what everyone else has already said... check out dem legs!
Excellent review! I agree that losing the V6 option was a little disheartening. However, I love that Mazda is one of the few brands out there keeping the manual's going and even putting it in the mid trim level and not just the base model.
Regarding how to start the vehicle with a dead remote battery. You hold the fob up close to the start button and it will glow green (even w/o a battery). You can then start the vehicle. You need to read the "Smart Start" guide located in the glove box, Dave.
Solid review. You guys do a great job of being thorough with most of your reviews and I appreciate it when you give more than one perspective or opinion. I owned a 2007 Mazda6 and a co-worker of mine is currently leasing a 2011. Both of them, despite being different models have/had issues with the lower control arms. I love the way Mazda vehicles look, drive and feel...but I'm so hesitant to consider them now. Any familiarity with what I'm talking about?
Thanks for this review, Dave! This car definitely seems like the best choice in the mid-size market and is at the top of my list. I'm a little bummed that Alex wasn't a part of this review. I would have liked his opinion on the 6 as well since this seems to be a car he would be into.
Great review Dave. :)
Lol, it was an Exciting yell because I love all you guys Reviews, it's much needed info you provide in buying a car.
It looks even better on the road. Saw it and first thought it was a Jaguar.
very nice review : )
@senorgato70, that's why I added the graphic to clarify the difference between mid-size and full size. Did that graphic NOT show up? - Dave
@tim allen, that's not my grading system - Dave
Great review
@MrSrilesnar, thank YOU for your support - Dave
Dave! Great review, thanks. The Mazda6 is the best looking and best handling mid-size sedan in my opinion! Would love to hear more on your thoughts about it's handing, and the user-friendliness of the infotainment interface. - Now you guys gotta do a review of the 2014 Mazda3 2.0 i Touring, & the 2.5 s Grand Touring w/ tech pkg! like, asap! ;->
p.s. Your voice always sounds great, Dave! Perfect delivery! & wow, nice calves!
Excellent review
You can actually also start your "push to start" mazda with dead keyfob after using key to enter the car, you just need to place your fob infront of your start button and wait for the green led to light up - then you may push to start.
Good review as always Dave. The diesel will be a very hot seller here in Canada where diesel is priced 5-7% below regular gas rather than the way your diesel is priced stateside.
I love my 6 for many reasons. It looks good, has plenty of go power, gets great gas mileage, handles like it is on rails, and the safety features are very user friendly and helpful. And for the price l paid, with the additional options (MRCC & FOW), it beat the competition cold. If you are looking for a sporty, fun car, give the 6 a view.
Great review. A small suggestion: If you tend to have these cars for more than just a day, then it would be really cool if you would sort of "vlog" some discoveries, comments, gripes, joys that you experience during your time with the car. Sort of like "On my way to the supermarket, and check out this little feature I just noticed". I am not sure it would always fit your current format, but it may give it more of a "life with the car" feeling, and less "review/presentation of the car" feel.
@579093, I don't do the cruise control when I'm driving around town or on the highway - Dave
Excellent review.
Thanks to this video i decided to buy the mazda 6. Amazing car. Got the 2016 touring model.
That diesel sound when starting up... thats from the ultra high (13:1) compression ratio. Hearing it in person, the skyactive engine actually has a pretty decent growl for an inline 4.
@Dave Erickson, I really enjoyed both reviews you did of the 2013 Kia optima SX and the 2014 Mazda 6. I have driven both cars and I’m stuck. Which one would you recommend and why?
Alot of negative comments, i think it was an amazing review! Thank you Dave! :)
Hi Dave, So how was the overall ride and refinement on this car ? Did u feel that the roadnoise in the cabin was an issue ? How was the Grand touring equipped ?
I enjoyed the review. Thanks for doing this ! :-)
Love the car, nice review!
Dave Erickson looks like Lance Armstrong.
The same holds for this Mazda6. There's a circular cap next to the steering column that you can pop off using the key and behind it is a normal key slot.
@jonaswang79, I have these vehicles for a full week but I'm skeptical that my subscribers will sit through a VLOG when they expect a 'car review'. In the past I've received nasty comments about showing only 'driving footage'. I'd like to hear some feedback and more specific ideas on this topic from the Everyman Driver Nation - Dave
Also the fuel economy is 26/38 as mentioned in all automatic Mazda6s, if you go with the manual you get 25/37 and if you get the automatic with i-ELOOP Regenerative Braking, you get 26/40 which is a segment leader.
@mark williams, I have SO MUCH music, I'm not sure, sorry - Dave
Dave what is the start up music ? I love it
Very nice review, to bad they don't have the V6 option but it's a sexy car never the less and I would consider it if I was looking to buy a new car! How are their reliability factor? Are they good as Hondas?
Dave, planning on doing a head-to-head between this and the 2013 Accord?
@pauliu7even, great question! I would lean toward the Kia - Dave
I mean it has happened to me (specially when driving a stick shift), that they get stuck between the pedals, I end up taking the flops off and driving bare footed...
The FOB aux key is just for unlocking the doors. The engine can be started the same by placing the FOB next to the push-button start. Its called emergency start. I sell new Mazdas. Nice review Dave.
You are in superb physical condition. I've starting taking my fitness more seriously over the past year and my goal is to look like you ( balanced and not too big). What kind of exercise program and diet are you on?
Good review
There is a coolant light to the left of the speedometer (at least that is where it is in the CX-5) which is blue at start up to signify the engine is cold and it turns off when it is at operating temperature. If the engine overheats it lights up red.
Hey Dave I noticed Mazda did away with the coolant gauge. What did they replace it with?
Nice job. Please review 2013 VW Jetta GLI.
@S Walters, I'm on a swimming, cycling and running training program (triathlon training). My diet isn't one that you should follow... I'm not as discipline as I should be - Dave
The manual says that even if there is not enough juice in the remote to open the door and you need to use the key, you should have the key fob touch the start button and then press it and it should start.
@RacelineMatt, I probably won't be doing any head-to-head comparisons anytime soon. I'm focusing on doing one quality car review at a time. I appreciate the suggestion though - Dave
Dave, how do you like this Mazda compared to the Honda Accord Sport? Thanks.
When you drive the.cars for review and determine its fuel efficiency, do you use cruise control? I never meet the mixed driving average unless I baby it.
On the new mazda 3 and 6 when the fob battery is dead, u gain access with the key inside the fob then u rest the rear of the top of the fob over the push button and wait until the red light turns on then u can start the car
Oh, I wasn't picturing it as being a new standalone format, but an addition to the current. Perhaps during the part about the backseat space you cut to a small video that shows how last Tuesday you picked up three friends and perhaps their comment to how well the two in the back felt sitting in the seats. Or on trunk space you cut to some footage of you going for a bike ride, putting the bike in the trunk. Or you show a clip from a roadtrip you took and a shot of the milage from a gas station.
Hi Dave, hope you get to do a review of the diesel when it makes it's way to the States. Very interested in it. My commute is 110 mile each day with 90 of it straight highway. Thought of the Jetta but it seems chincy and the Passat is over priced for what you get.
I own a Mazda 6 touring with tech, If I remember right if the battery is dead on the 6 you wave the remote near the push button and you hold down the button and it will start. It's fun car, I hope though they bring a turbo version.
THANK YOU!
Dave, would you buy this mazda instead of the sonata?
@bmwmsport11, good to know, thank you for sharing the knowledge! - Dave
How is the road noise for 2014 Mazda 6 ? Thanks
Most keyless push button start cars have a physical key and a special spot to insert or hold the key fob to start the car even if the remote's battery is dead.
He more looks like a personal trainer for celebrities, but he is not bad at all for an automobile reviewer.
on the newer Mazda's push button start system. you just place the key fob to the push start button, press the button, and that will start the vehicle.
it depends on a lot of things i think. what is most important to you? style, driving dynamics, resell value, ownership cost etc. need to ask yourself those questions first.
How well is the Mazda6 selling? I have seen exactly one on the road and have not yet seen a Mazda3...
in a toyota if you run out of battery for the smart key, you just need to put the key on the push-button start or somewhere very close to it. then the car reads the key and it can start.
can you do a review of the 2013 Ford Fusion Titanium ?
@Metals-Camera is standard on all but the low volume entry iSport manual. Surpised he really didnt get into all the interior features that are standard. Also, in reference to the dead key fob issue he mentioned, you can still start the car. Just touch the fob to the start button and the car will start.
@Andres Salazar, why do you say that? What's the difference? - Dave
@mark williams, maybe you can do some research on this and share it with the Everyman Driver Nation - Dave
These are some awesome mpg numbers.
@senorgato70, it was a poor choice of words to call it 'comparable'. I will make the RLX public next week, thank you - Dave
that thing would be so badass. Styling looks good add some speed and it would give it that little edge it needs.
@jOel SiMon, I put a request in with my fleet services manager, thank you - Dave
I miss that 274hp turbo 4 cyl, Mazdaspeed, Mazda6, from back in the day
what happened to the buy it rent it or lease it?
Also...any word on whether or not they'll be offering a diesel option? I had heard rumors that they were. We own a 2012 Passat TDI and if the option is there, we'll be buying diesel whenever it's available.
Would you recommend this car to a collage or a graduate student?
2:22 "If you floor it from a standstill, it'll really *pull you forward* " 🤔
oh i forgot i believe is the month thing isn't. If so what your take on it.
Back up camera is standard in the mazda 6 automatic
If you want a sportier driving midsize sedan with great fuel economy the Mazda 6 is a great choice. The only negatives for me where that the infotainment/Navi screen was kind of small and looked a few years behind other brands but it was easy to use. The air vents in the center of the dash are placed kind of low. I wonder what the projected 5 years cost of ownership is compared with other cars in the class? (Accord, Altima, Optima, Fusion, Malibu, Sonata)
2014 mazda 6 vs 2013 accord? which is better? from the reviews ive gone through the accord is better in value and mazda is better drive. i can't quite decide on that -_-
@Charles2337, actually I don't lift weights. I swim, bike or run everyday :-) Dave
If this car came with a V6 then my car search would be over. BUT.. it doesn't so I'm kinda on the fence about getting one. I really can't stand a 4 banger. I had an 09 mazda 6 s touring that was nice and quick so I'm not sure why they cut the v6 motor from the lineup. I am very bummed out about that decision .
He sounded fine, sounding confident is important. I'm interested what his background is now because of his comment.
Is this your favorite midsize sedan?
cant wait for the Skyactive -D
@MakeLovNoBabiez, first of all, great screen name, secondly, are you aware of my background? Thirdly, I am relaxed :-) - Dave
Mazda does offer a 6 speed manual in the lower trim level.
Nice!
exterior looks good, I wish they would make a speed6 again though.
