More like a harmless cartoon Joker. Before this design, I liked the Mazda 3. Good on gas, decent size and it looked good. Title: Re: New Mazada 3?

You know of all the Japanese makes, I always hold out hope that Mazda will come out with something beautiful and distinctly Japanese. I hope they will make another RX-7 Mk III, only better. Excepting the the new Lexus ISes (which are still unapologetically Euro-influenced), that is as good as Japan gets in my book. Not this time, I guess. Title: Re: New Mazada 3?

Pretty much sums it up from a girl's POV... Title: Re: New Mazada 3? Post by: DesmoDiva on February 18, 2009, 05:22:51 PM I'm hoping the 2011 Speed3 will look better. It is will not be produced for the 2010 model year.
