Thinking about Mazda 6 5-speed 2.3i

I live in New Hampshire so I need Traction Control or TCS. I know the 2006's come with TCS standard what year was TCS avaliable on the Mazda 6 four with the manual tranny? Is this alignment thing oly efect early 6's or is it still a issue. Thanks!!

never heard of such problems and my 04 has tcs. TCS is over rated , learn how to drive in ice and snow. I disabled my TCS and do just fine without it in ice and snow.
