The 6 is the sedan CX-5 but with better interior materials, better BOSE audio system (11 speaker system vs the 9), sharper handling, better ride, more features and of course much better MPG and imho better looks. I'm very satisfied with my 2014 Mazda6 despite it lacking V6 power (which, I would have opted for regardless of MPG). I started with the CX-7 which is still one of the most attractive SUV's on the road (pre-2010 uglification) and Mazda has come a LONG way. The 2014 6 has little compromise.
Really, the one thing that seems to be a common complaint about the new Mazdas is noise. I wonder if it's really that bad or if it's just that everything these days is overall quieter so it's more noticeable? I think James Riswick mentioned it in one of the early posts on the long term CX-5, but I don't recall anyone else bringing it up about that long termer since then.
