2006 Mazda 6 MPS

I've always like the 6 MPS, and they're starting to get quite affordable. Around 200kw of power and AWD system, you basically have a Group A era rally car in the form of a sensible family sedan. I think these will always hold a bit of value, and good things are said about the cars' reliability. This is the first one on classic register - spotted for sale online in mid 2025, asking $15,000 - and it's not the cheapest one out there. 

The seller made the following comments in the original advertisement: Immaculate paint and body Immaculate interior Apple CarPlay Headunit with JBL Speakers 169,000km Full service book Just had major service engine, spark-plugs, gearbox and transfer case 185psi compression all 4 cylinders Brand new K04 Factory MPS Turbo Reconditioned Transfer case Genuine Mazda Dealer installed timing chain VVT Kit.

These things seem to hold up well! 0-100 in between 6 and 6.5 seconds is not bad!
