Poll: Mazda6 or Honda Accord?
The Mazda6 and Honda Accord are undoubtedly two of the best family sedans on the market today, but which one would YOU rather make monthly payments on?
The Zoom-Zoom Mazda in this poll features a 2.5-liter Skyactiv-G four-cylinder engine that puts out 184 horses and 185 lb-ft of torque. This is the only powerplant offered in this car, though it can be paired with either a manual or automatic transmission, both of which feature six ratios.
In comparison, the Honda is offered with either a base four-banger or an optional V6. The 2.4-liter entry-level engine puts out 185 horsepower (189 in Sport trim) and 181 lb-ft of twist. the Up-level six-shooter features a stable of 278 ponies. Depending on engine and trim, three gearboxes are available. There’s a proper manual with six speeds, a CVT automatic and a self-shifter with half-a-dozen gears.
Which of these class-leading sedans do YOU like more? Compare them tit for tat right here.

i dunno. Mazda6 can be had with LED Headlights, BOSE 11-speaker audio system, and Auto-Dimming Driver Mirror. -i like how Lumbar Adjust comes standard in all of them
Accord by a mile. V6 and coupe options are available with the Accord. With the 6, it's "You can have it any way you want, as long as it's a 2.5L sedan."
