Yep, same here in OZ..

V8's are dead in the water (apart from enthusiast's) from a car sales point.
V6's are not much better, just surviving..

Apart from USA the average Joe Blow can not afford to operate V* engines....$6.00 a gallon here for fuel....what is it $8-10 in Europe?

GM, Ford and Toyota here are giving them away (apart from small enthusiast market) in AU.

Couldn't she have at least washed the bird crap off of the window before filming her thoughts? That's really obnoxious.

The 6 rivaling against 7 other cookie cutter mid-size sedans... Gets first place. Great breaking? No. A competitive mid-size sedan? Yes.

It's sad that they still can't compare a fully loaded Mazda 6 GT to fully loaded Accords, Passat's, etc. I mean, I get why they don't do it but still.

Ha! Watching it right now, but had to make a comment about the colors. All the other manufacturers sent dull colored cars, Mazda sent a Soul Red. Makes it stand out right from the beginning.
