That is how you roll with the Equus (but the stickers and "rope on the mirror) can go away. Maybe an inch up. Maybe.

i'm the opposite. I couldn't really find an angle on the exterior that i could like. It really is an ugly car.
The handling and interior aren't bad.
The 2011 that i had as a loaner was quick and it was too easy to speed. The speed came very quick and you don't realize how fast you are going sometimes. It handled well too.

The interior needed many improvements.

The automatic shifter is too close to the knob on the dash. You have to make a conscious effort to not hit the knob when putting it in park.

There are way too many buttons, way too many.

In any mode on the nav, not one could i find a setting where i could glance up and see the time. I had to look down and find it to see what time it was.
That took my eyes off the road too long.

I didn't like the hvac controls at all. They're located on each side of the stack of buttons.


I did like the tinted outside side mirrors, that was a nice touch. The seats felt real nice too.

the v8 does sound sexy at start up - friends dad has one too - pretty nice

I wish Mazda would make a new version of the Speed6. I had one when they first came out, then sold it. I still regret that decision. AWD, plenty of room, euro-comfortable interior, 6-speed, torque came on STRONG very early (274hp 280ft/lb turbo4 -- one of Ward's 10 best engines that year). Man, I miss that car.

I think Mazda took a bath on them though, so I wouldn't expect them to be back.

I had the chance to sit in three notable Hyundais this last weekend at the AZ Int'l Auto Show - a Genesis Coupe (V6), a Genesis R-Spec Sedan, and an Equus. I came away VERY impressed.
