I'm gonna have to find a nice '08 or '09, because they don't make bags big enough to fit over that face, and there's too much crap in my garage to find the car with the light off
I could tell you it was the coolest video you haven't seen but it wasn't. It was 30 seconds of my life I will never get back and I am excited about the new Mazdaspeed3.
Sweet sassy molassy but does that car have a serious case of butterface. It's made all the worse too by the fact that from every other angle it looks better than the old one. Kinda like walking up behind the best-looking pair of yoga-pants you've ever seen and then she turns around and it's a Klingon crossed with Pumba crossed with A Clearasil "before" picture.
I hope you weren't planning on weaselling out of any tickets if you buy one of these because every cop will tell you the same thing: "U-G-L-Y, You ain't got no alibi."
There is absolutely zero likelihood that I will buy any of these new Mazdas as long as they have that assinine smiling grille on them. Poor aesthetics can ruin a car.
i like the car, nice performance and GREAT price (the current one).. but this new one is SO not under the radar, the thing i loved most about the old one was that it's a sleeper.
@c0de: Yeah, the loss of sleeper status hurts this one. On the old one, I think the biggest giveaway were the wheels, and even those were pretty subtle.
The Mazda3 in general has a bit of an immature, boy-racerish look to it...the redesign doesn't help. I imagine myself buying this now at it would seem okay. But I'd feel weird driving it at age 40. Sort of like how Celine Dion's husband must feel.
@Ash78: I suppose that's true. At least we have some way to rationalize it.
Just last week one of the writers for our school paper wrote that a nearby restaurant had a "sheikh, urban feel," and it made it through copy editing to the print version.
Sigh. I guess I'm just a snob about things like that.

I want one, and I don't give a crap what the front end looks like; I can't see it from behind the steering wheel anyway.

That, sir, is what paper bags and "car bras" are for.
