Atenza

Isn't this car called the Mazda Atenza in Japan? Is this worth noting? ---> Yes, this car is called the Mazda Atenza in Japan. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Buhin (talk • contribs) 18:40, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Edited

It is very obvious in this article that only the American awards are noted. Therefore, I've included a British gong.

I also got rid of some of the 7 competitors listed. It now has an American rival, a budget rival, a European rival and a prestige rival. I removed the MKXlink aswell - rather irrelavent apart from the platform.

Gran Turismo

Forgive me, but is there really a need to have a link to the cars in a video game on this page? The fact that it is in Gran Turismo in different forms doesn't seem like a useful piece of information for an automobile page. I checked the Ford Mustang page, and it doesn't list anything, and both of these cars are built in the AutoAlliance International facility. Figgie123 18:30, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Naming

This should probably have stayed using the most common name, Mazda 6, versus the Atenza name, used only in one country. Friday (talk) 18:42, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Only Japan uses Mazda Atenza while this is the english version of wikipedia, I think we should move the page back to Mazda 6 opinions? Sox23 18:47, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

According to the edit summary, it was renamed per Wikipedia:WikiProject Automobiles/Proposed naming convention, but that's not a real guideline yet, and I don't see where it supports such a rename. Even if this were a guideline and it said we should use the home market name, I'd still disagree in this case since this very common car has a single name by which it's very widely known. There's no way a country-specific name should take precedence over a name commonly used throughout the world, in my opinion. Friday (talk) 18:54, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If the naming is going to stay, then quite a bit has to be re-edited as this article is written from the perspective of Mazda6. North wiki 02:46, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have moved the page back to Mazda 6 Sox23 04:47, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

But... the revision history of Mazda Atenza...

I am not agree with him. And I agree that Sox23 said, Atenza name used only in Jpn. -- 202.28.25.71 (talk) 07:10, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The model name outside of Japan is "Mazda6" as one word only not "Mazda 6" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.187.173.152 (talk) 06:13, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Talk Page

How can I go to the talk page of Mazda6? It looks this is the talk page of Atenza. North wiki 02:46, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Platform of 2nd Gen

From the specification of Euro version, it looks like it is more closely related to a Ford Fusion, i.e. still based on the CD-3 developed by Mazda, rather than the EUCD of Ford Europe. North wiki 02:46, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

The Mazdaspeed6 should be merged to this article, its only one variant of this car and it its now quite shortly article anyway

Absolutely. The proliferation of stubby articles on performance variants of regular cars is rather worrying. PrinceGloria (talk) 00:11, 30 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

For Thailand?

assembly: Rayong, Thailand (for Thailand)

What I know is Mazda 6 is not available in Thailand if who want the 6 are not import it from outside Thailand. --Love Krittaya (talk) 17:24, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
