M6 engine (V6) is not made by Mazda, it's made by Ford. Everybody knows Ford owns Mazda 30%. How come spend so much money to buy a Ford.

What do ford and mazda have to do with the 2.4 liter engine used in the Acura TSX?:confused:

Answer: NOTHING

This is a TSX board. If you're going to discuss a MAZDA M6 then you specify "MAZDA." Otherwise people will think that you're talking about the 6 speed manual version of the TSX.

No, if they were talking about the manual tranny 6 speed it would be MT6. M6 is notorious on the web for meaning the Mazda6.

Go to:

www.ls1.com

And then you'll see that "M6 is notorious on the web" for meaning 6 speed manual.

The Mazda 6's motor in not in whole a Ford motor. Only the engine block is a Ford Duratec.

The Mazda 6 s gets the new 220-hp, 3.0-liter V-6 (an update of Ford's Duratec V-6).

"ONLY the block."

Please show me where the link you posted states that. I don't see it.:confused:

What about the crankshaft, connecting rods, pistons, exhaust manifolds, etc?
