For a new model in its final development phase, Mazda sure did one helluva job keeping the near-production prototypes of its next '6' far away from the prying eyes of spy photographers over the last year.
But all that came to an end this week when our man with the long lens finally scooped the actual Mazda6 in station wagon form, which will likely join the four-door sedan model for its world premiere at the Paris Motor Show in September.
The two cars will share the same design language so what you see here sans the roofline and the shape of the rear-end can be applied to the saloon.
The black and white wrap can’t hide the fact that the next Mazda6 draws heavily on the sassy styling of the Takeri concept car displayed at last fall's Tokyo motor show, softened up, of course, for mainstream consumption.
