[Shotimes] Mazda 6 s, ME WANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Ron Nottingham]

Yeah, but considering the cost of admission now is 240+ hp, it looks like it
is really tame.  Now if MazdaSpeed would get ahold of it, and do something
like they did to the Protege...  Maybe they would have something.  280+hp
would be nice.  300hp and it could be considered Super High Output (just
thinking that the original 89 SHO had about 60+ hp over other V6 sedans of
the time)

The people who gave us the MTX-IV, by the way.
