Default Mazda 6?

Im lookin at getting a mazda 6 for the "family" car.. Its a nice little car, charcoal grey, a cai, rims, tinted windows, two toned leather seats.. But anyone have one of these before? Common problems with them?

By the way, it has a little emblem on the back that says "MP5" I think, or something close to that.. It also has a little "MazdaSpeed" emblem that is painted the same color as the car.. I know its not a true mazdaspeed, b/c its not turboed and awd.. But the car is very sharp, and looks quick.. Its got a little snap to it, obviously its not really really fast.. But its a fun little car to drive..

The 6's are nice, but a litle small imo.
The 3 is a nicer car to me, and more moderatley priced.

The only thing I hate about the 6, is the oil filter is one of those internal cartridge types.
I just hate those for some reason.

is it the v6 or the 4 cyl?? my friend has a 6cyl w/ CAI, cat back, grounding kit, SAFCII and every suspension mod you can have. he's putting 196 down on a mustang dyno after being Tuned and is building a turbo kit now. on 8psi he's estimated to be at 320whp on the mustang dyno.

looks like it has the v6 spoiler. with intake, exhaust, and safcII you can have 195hp. those things also stick to the ground pretty well with some simple suspension mods.
