2019 Lexus ES 350 F Sport Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh The Lexus ES has never been a favorite of driving enthusiasts. The first few generations were soggily tuned to deliver the soft ride desired by the traditional luxury car buyer. The 2013 was the first ES to deliver something resembling decent handling. With the 2019, though, Lexus finally developed... Comparison vehicle: 2018 Mazda Mazda6 |

2018 Mazda6 Signature Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh Last year handling probably would have topped the reasons to buy a Mazda6. That it no longer does says more about the improved interior than chassis shortcomings. Still, if your goal is the sportiest handling in a mainstream midsize sedan, the Honda Accord Sport could be the way to go.... Comparison vehicle: 2019 Honda Accord |

2017 Mazda Mazda6 Pros and Cons Member5080 This is where the car is brilliant. Handling, steering, braking, etc. It does as good as my Mazda3 in curves. For a huge car this is just amazing. The steering turns with precision not seen an many other cars. Brake pedal feel is excellent (notice Honda). Clutch weight is supreme... |

Well done, good and faithful servant 2004 Mazda Mazda6 Pros and Cons mdhasty With fat 17" tires it took corners very aggressively and responded well to sharp turning. |

2015 Volkswagen Passat 1.8T Sport Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh Technically, the Passat Sport handles well, with modest lean and decent grip in turns. The linear, precise steering feels lifeless in casual driving, but wakes up enough to provide some confidence-inspiring feedback when the car is pushed. In general, though, the Mazda has livelier responses and tends to be more... Comparison vehicle: 2014 Mazda Mazda6 |

My 2015 Mazda6 is amazing. 2015 Mazda Mazda6 Pros and Cons Member3621 The handling is what really sets this sedan apart from VW, Honda, and especially Toyota, Hynudai, or Kia. It handles like my friend's BMW 5 series, but with a level of sensitivity and lightness that the 5 lacks. And I know this is about handling, but Oh My GOD,... |

2007 Mazda Mazda6 Pros and Cons Member5934 Car handles well on dry payment, especially for a wagon. |

2014 Mazda6 Sport Review (manual transmission) Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh Earlier I wondered whether I might come to better appreciate the new Mazda6's handling with more time in the seat. Well, after a week with the car my impression's were much the same as earlier: Compared to the Fusion, the Mazda6 feels much lighter and smaller. This is... Comparison vehicle: 2013 Ford Fusion |

2014 Mazda Mazda6 Pros and Cons Member5854 For a family sedan it handles fantastic. Ride is very nice and can still carve the twisty's with relative ease. |

4 years of MazdaSpeed 6 ownership 2007 Mazda Mazda6 Pros and Cons Member2974 Handling of the Speed6 is very good. In 37 years of driving probably the best handling car I have driven and certainly owned. The whole car really comes alive when you start to give it some stick. Pottering around and commuting, while totally doable is a bit of a... |

2013 Hyundai Sonata SE Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh The 2013 Hyundai Sonata SE's suspension is 20 percent stiffer than those in the GLS and Limited. Consequently, it rolls less in turns and generally feels a little more athletic, but it also soaks up bumps less well. The suspension in the Mazda6 better controls body motions, to the benefit...

Mazda 6 - Capable, Comfortable, Affordable 2006 Mazda Mazda6 Pros and Cons Member5761 Short of buying a sports car, Mazda consistently has the best handling across their product line.<br /> <br /> The handling in this car may have saved my life last summer. It helped me avoid being crushed between two semis on a difficult stretch of highway in a torrential downpour.... |

The best car nobody knows about 2013 Mazda Mazda6 Pros and Cons Member4411 I think there's something to the zoom-zoom catchphrase. The 6 has direct, accurate steering, with great turn-in, a well damped ride and little body roll. It has the demeanor of a European sedan. |

2014 Mazda6 Grand Touring Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh As a clean sheet "SKYACTIV" car, the 2014 Mazda6 should deliver agile, engaging handling. It does readily out-handle competitors--except for the Ford, where the outcome is mixed. Compared to the Fusion, the Mazda6 feels much lighter and smaller. This is partly because it is a couple hundred pounds lighter, but also... Comparison vehicle: 2013 Ford Fusion |

Mazdaspeed 6 Review 2006 Mazda Mazda6 Pros and Cons Member906 The Speed6 handles very well, with the AWD providing great performance in the wet and snow. |
|
Surprising and often overlooked 2009 Mazda Mazda6 Pros and Cons Member4755 This four door drives like a sports car. The slogan should be Zip Zip instead of zoom zoom. I haven't had this much fun in years carving curves and pulling hard out of them. Car even drifts beautifully! |

2006 Mazda Mazda6 Pros and Cons Member4753 Composed in the corners, understeers at the limit from the factory, but aftermarket sport lowering springs really bring it to life further. |
|
2006 Mazda Mazda6 Pros and Cons Member4753 Little body roll but does tend to understeer quite heavily when pushed hard. Switching to performance springs (H&R sport), made a night and day difference. With sport springs it is much more crisp handling car and more willing to rotate around a corner. |
|
2009 Mazda Mazda6 Pros and Cons Member3987 Relatively firm suspension. Balanced handling. Responsive but not darty. Low body roll when cornering |
|
2005 Mazda Mazda6 Pros and Cons Member3903 Great steering, feels very responsive. |
|
2009 Mazda Mazda6 Pros and Cons Member3762 European steering feel. Little too much body roll than I wanted but responsive to input. Tracks well on center w/o input. |
