I also like the Mazda 6 chassis. It's designed for smooth Japanese pavement so the ride is appalling over our horrific GTA roads, but over smooth pavement it rides like no entry-level sedan has a right to. The steering is keen and precise with sharp turn in and it actually transmits some feel! I can't think of any other 2015 model cars with actual steering feel.
What do you think of the f10? It's a very nice car for the street, but it's too soft and heavy for aggressive track use. The suspension is soft and the open differential is a real let-down during aggressive cornering, as with many other cars like Mazda. But regardless, as long as I keep the heavy chassis within its paces, I enjoy every second of driving the BMW.

I agree the Mazda 6 would be a great car if it didn't have such an anemic engine. 184 hp is pathetic, c'mon Mazda bring back the Mazdaspeed 6.
