Would be nice if they decided to bring the 6-Wagon to the states, looks really nice.
Would be a little competition for the TSX Wagon. Better if it could be had with a manual, even without the diesel.

Edit: Just looked through the netcarshow images. This would jump high on my TL replacement list if available here with a 6MT.

Meko, funny that you post the Sportcross. Im seriously considering one as my next daily:



I just need to do some more research to see how difficult it is to do a MT swap since they only came with the 5AT.

My aunt had an IS300 with a 5MT, really fun car (she sold it & bought a '12 MDX Tech ). Never driven the wagon, the rear always looked to me.

Yea, the rear is a love it or hate it thing. Most people hate it. Its actually grown on me. I just really want a wagon too. Im buying used, so anything German is out, which doesn't leave much of a selection.

In that case, yeah, you're left with the IS300, TSX or Impreza/Legacy/Outback.

I wouldn't mind a W123 turbo diesel Benz wagon though.



My first car was an '82 W123 240D. So I have a soft spot for '80s Benz.

My '82 240D & '82 300SD both had over 300k on them. The 240 I got rear-ended in: totalled. The 300 we sold when I left for college.

I didn't know that..
I don't remember seeing how Sportcross sits on the road but I LOVE sedan one.
Always wanted it.

Keep seeing a black b6 s4 wagon with stock rims and lowered + tint in my neighbourhood and hate it

Please don't be a Subaru guy
Subaru wagons needs too much moding to make you look like a motor head...or different
I don't know may be we have so many stock subaru wagons in Boston, that's why I just skip them but...

Sportcross wouldn't be like that...rare
and if you could do MT swap

That's what you need
I don't like the pointy rear end...that's why fan of Audi wagons...
but since we talkin about Supercross, not a Subaru...deal
if you stay away from German...
but but why not a b5

But I like the sedan one...because that's what I had a ride with all the time when I was a kid..

Still remember that diesel engine sounding like a boiling water haha

IS300 Sportcross

Why not "be a Subaru guy"? I love the way Outbacks look lowered. They have a wider stance than the Legacy wagons.

To them, best one is impreza STI
Last thing I would want is to get into subie club... I am not a fan of something that's usual
Can't explain how many Hatch WRX I see around me everyday

Last one looks amazing though...right Morgan
Rear end looks smilar to Audi b7...b6 is much straight down which I like more

Yep, mine would shake the whole car at a stop with the A/C on. A whole 68hp.
It wasn't a fast, or even quick car & topped out at about 80mph, but mine was immaculate. Off-white with navy interior.

Mine was a 4AT. The first one we looked at was a 4MT, but needed A/C work. Should've bought that one though, the '82 we got ended up loosing reverse & had the heater core go out.

TSX and Legacy wagon I love, but theyre expensive and the Subie gets bad gas mileage.

i really want to try hard to make whatever i can do make Mazda bring wagon and diesel to US

please help it awesome looking car

http://streetkaa.kinja.com/mazda-6-w...-usa-500773156


Call To request your wagon from Mazda directly: USA 1-800-222-5500. Mexico 01-800-016-2932 Canada 1-800-263-4680 THE RECORD EVERY REQUEST! Like, and share this link.
Repost from one of our member's: called mazda and asked again about the Wagon, The girl said "i know the US has 1 so it will probably come out there but canada for the moment won't" "she did say that my call was recorded and they logg every wagon request so she said the more people call them the better as they are observing how many people are asking for a wagon.
Number is 1-800-263-4680 and its customer relations you need to talk to.
so if you want a wagon please call and ask them if they will release one in canada!
i am making promise that if they bring it i am first person in line to get it

That looks really good! The chances of Mazda bring it to the US are between slim and none, since most Americans won't buy wagons.

Yes I agree with all^^^
and it really really looks good...much cooler design than TSX
Side view reminds me of an Alfa 156, especially rear window and how the rear roof lowers down..

I'd be very interested if the wagon came over here, though likely with the gas engine, but that opinion could change if I like how the diesel drives.
As long as it'll be in Touring or higher trim with the 6MT.
