Has anyone else experienced a smell from the engine that is like something is melting sorta like a wax smell? It comes through the airvents when it is on.

Most new cars will have that smell for awhile, but it should eventually go away.

Quite normal.
If it happens still after first 5000 km, then start wondering more...

I still wonder about how well the engines take rpm's as new nowadays?

3 years ago the manual had warning about not to rev-up the engine over 4000 rpm's untill it has driven over 5000 km mark... Does Mazda6 manual have any comments on this for the new owners?

I have to correct myself... I meant A manual, from my previous car.

I've had that smell too. But after two months, it's lesser now.
