I received this car to test drive. All opinions are my own.

2017 MAZDA6 I Grand Touring Review

A couple of weeks ago I was able to test drive the new Mazda6 I Grand Touring. I had a jaw drop reaction when I saw the car parked in my driveway. It belonged there. My first thought was “I want one of my own”. I believe that just like everyone I have a purpose.  And no matter what everyone’s specific purpose in life is, everyone deserves to have JOY be a part of that purpose.  Let me explain how to find and make JOY a part of your life by introducing you to the new 2017 MAZDA6 I GRAND TOURING.

While driving the Mazda6 for one week I found myself contemplating on how to describe the perfect vehicle for me, which obviously I fell in love with the Mazda6 and all of its features.  The word JOY kept coming to mind.  I found myself immersed and overwhelmed with JOY as I sat on the smooth and beautiful white parchment Nappa leather seats stitched to perfection.  Just when I thought the seat couldn’t get any better I noticed that it had a “seat memory” with capable 2 positions for instant adjustment to my gratification and I saw the ‘heated seat’ symbol.  And guess what I felt? … JOY!

As I drooled over the comfort of the seat I eyeballed the rest of the interior.  Since the word “joy” can only be somewhat descriptive, here are a few of the other features that brought me joy:  Auto dim rear-view mirror with homelink, 7.0 in. color touchscreen display, Bluetooth hands free phone audio (this feature was one of my favorite due to my continuous/always on the go work style and necessity to make and receive calls in a safe way while driving.), paddle shifters/commander switch, rearview camera(a must nowadays in my opinion for safety), advanced keyless entry system, electronic parking brake, navigation, bose stereo system, sunroof, etc. etc. too many interior features to list. And I bet you can guess what I was feeling…JOY!

And since I am also all about finding some room for saving some extra spending money, I will mention the incredible savings you will experience due to the MPG’s (miles per gallon) that this ride will get you.  With a SkyActiv-G 2.5L DOHC 4 cyl. 6spd sportmode 184 horsepower 185 lb.-ft torque front wheel drive Engine, you would expect to only get 17 mpg with all that power.  Drum Roll please………  Estimated at 27 city up to 35 on the highway, you will have further to go with extra dough in your wallet.  😉

Safety has always been #1 with me when choosing a vehicle, and guess what?  The 2017 Mazda6 nails the government 5 star safety rating, getting an overall 5. This car was very comfortable and perfect for me and my family. We loved all of the features, the style, and power. This is definitely a car that I loved driving and didn’t want to give it back after a week. Mazda made a car that reflects my unique taste, incredible style, gorgeous looks, and most of all, my attitude!  I think that anyone who drives this car will feel the same! You need to go to your local dealer and test drive the 2017 Mazda6.
