    This is good, but to achieve perfection Mazda must build:


    1) An MX-5 with a rotary.

    2) An AWD Mazdaspeed3.

    3) An RX-8 with the 2.3 turbo 4.

    @brandegee: Then it would be an MX-8, not an RX-8, the R standing for Rotary

    The front is edgy, but it definitely edges on adorable... in all the quarter, side, and rear views, though, it looks positively racy.


    Are they still doing a speed6? I'd be very, very interested in that--I've seen two or three new Mazda 6es around, and they look so very slick.

    Ugh, I just can't make myself like the front of that thing. That said I love the Mazdaspeed3 and my hope is that I can find a nice used 1st gen MS3 at a significant price reduction.


    On the other hand I'll be patiently waiting to see what aftermarket does with this one.

    It's a good thing I'm not in charge of brand names for Mazda. Instead of the Mazdaspeed3, this would be the Mazda 3 Bob Ross Edition.


    I am diggin' this car, though. I wish the hot hatch wasn't such a niche market in the US.

    The front grill might look better if it is color-matched to the rest of the car, but aside from that, I think this car looks great. I'm impressed.
