ALL 2010 Mazda3 Stuff Goes Here
- Thread starter Captain GJ
- Start date
lol
On autoweek.com starts around 2:30 http://www.autoweek.com/article/20090203/VIDEONEWS/902039991
Went to the DC auto show today and took a look at the 2010 sedan and hatch and I must say that they are definetly better looking in person than in the pictures. The dual exhaust is actually a muffler with one inlet and two outlets. The taillights stick out a lot from the body of the vehicle. There's definitely a lot of space in the engine bay at the rear of the motor.

Great Pictures but i still think Mazda Have ruined a great looking car, in my opinion this Mazda 3 or Mazdaspeed 3 is a complete mess, inside, outside and engine and technology wise since they are still using the same motor with same technolony and same HP. These Mazdas are a complete dissapointment Period !!!!!!
LOL @ the edits!
Hey...I would still rep i the car.
There's modifications for a reason.

The protege just didnt sell well enough to justiy keeping it alive. Has nothing to do with evolving. Look at the F-150 trucks and Mustangs... Those things has a long ass generation line up because they sold well. redesigns are them evolving.

Daniel what are you saying about the protege's didn't sold well ? are you serious man ? Protege have been for years and generation best sport compact cars world wide. for me is just BS they didn't sold well to keep them alive. Today the big car manufactures are just ******* every single car they come up with, Look at Toyota with the Supra, look at Mazda with the RX-7, etc etc etc they haven't come up with something better and most likely they never will and that's a huge mistake period.
no interior shots?

Mazda is changing all the engines in their cars by 2012, i think I heard that and since the engine in the speed3 also goes in the CX-7 i think maybe they are going to change all the engines at one time, minus the RX-8.
Except that the Astra has handsome styling while the new 3 is questionable.
Still, I would not kick an MS3 out of bed
happy and angry

You think a Mazda 3 is better than [CAR X] for some reason? Colour me surprised.
I chatted with the rep for about 15 min while I was at the auto show.. about the only information I could get out of him was that, "Mazda will only use Mazda engines in Mazdaspeed vehicles."
Other things I noted:
None of the 3's at the show had manual transmissions or push button start.
Controls for the new GPS system are on the steering wheel.
Power controls on the driver seat allow for a wide variety of seating positions vs. the seats in the current MS3.
Glovebox space is significantly reduced.
Armrest for the center console was wrapped in a material to match the seats and not some sort of rubber as it currently is.

The astra is one on the few cars that actually looks better in photos than in person...

I didn't mean it like that man. (hand) I meant it as in they didn't sell well enough to just redesign it and keep the current name. You know have liek 15 generations of protege's like they do the f series trucks, mustang, ect, ect
