Very nice!!!! How did you find the Mazda 6 paint?? Hard, soft, easy to correct etc Thinking about this one for my next car as it seems a nice compromise between performance and practicality.

Thanks Pwaug. To me, anything that correct with LC Orange w/ 205 on a PC 7424XP is soft paint. The PC is not a very "tough" machine and I was able to correct the few issues this car had in under an hour. The owner is actually my friend's mother and he picked out the car for her. He says it's a blast to drive, has decent MPG and performance. The cockpit is nicely set up too, so you're not struggling to find obvious things. This particular one had the Nav and I used it briefly, seems pretty streamline. All-in-all, nice car all around!
