The 2006 Mazda 6 for buyers
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2006 Mazda 6 for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Buying the 2006 Mazda 6 is a big decision; here is the information we have.
What to check on the 6
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.
The numbers in plain words
It runs the 2.3L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Its combined rating is 9.8 L/100 km, which means roughly 29 litres for 300 km. In energy, every 100 km costs about $15.19 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,800 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Who rents the 6
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
How big it is
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. Luggage space is 623 litres, enough for bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Rent it for a week first
Rent the 6 for a week and see how it fits your life. A test week in the 6 tells you more than any review. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.
Picking a year and a trim
Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
What it costs to run
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $15.19 in fuel. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.
