Faux wood is only used on the power window switch surrounds, center stack and lower console, which now incorporates a new larger armrest storage compartment capable of storing 10 CDs in organized fashion. It also houses an auxiliary power outlet for cellular phone, laptop or PDA hookup. Simple, functional but fairly small dual cupholders sit just forward on the lower console. More importantly the trunk is fairly large at 368 L (13.0 cu ft).

So, what will Mazda do to fill the flagship niche now that the Millenia's on its way to pasture? Nothing, at least directly. The 626 is currently being replaced by the new 6 that will now hold top-spot honors. That said, arigato Millenia, it's been truly nice to have known you.
