This Turbo Mazda 3 will only be as good as the engine calibrations, suspension tuning(if any) and the tires. Hopefully, these items were done the right way!
And if it is just the AWD Mazda 3 with a 2.5T? Same tires, same suspension, same everything?

why can't they get rid of the self driving car crap? they're making already lazy people even more lazy and unsafe.
no handheld devices while driving...no... but let me go ahead and give you all the time you need to do it illegally anyways.
self parking, self driving. bah. gimme the "i'm driving this car, not the computers".

It's called "following the crowd" or "lemming syndrome". We see this happen all the time - giant grills, almost all touchscreen, fading paint, etc.
I will not trust any self-driving vehicle. The world obviously has plenty of guinea pigs who are dying.

Yes, I was just kidding about it being the 3. However, I'd still like to see it as an electric car.

I imagine reviewers would have a field day with the torque steer and the TCS

I think a lot of reviews are fairly satisfied with the 3's handling right now with one of the main complaints, if any, being the relatively sluggish straight-line speed and lack of power.
That said, I think there will be plenty who will be happy to drive a Mazda 3 that handles as well as it did before, but has more power and is faster. I know I would be. I thought the Mazda 3 loaner I had a while back was a ton of fun, but I admittedly don't know if my senses have been dulled from driving a CX-9 for so long now such that anything smaller and shorter would seem very responsive and capable in the handling department.
Torque steer and TCS are certainly worthy concerns though, but some consider the former to be even a charming character flaw. That's what I read in some of the comments at Jalopnik on the articles that discussed the new turbo Mazda 3 anyway, with many referring to the MazdaSpeed 3's torque steer.
I know I'll at least test drive the new turbo Mazda 3, but I wouldn't say I'm committed to getting one just yet when my CX-9 lease ends.

Then it will be an overpowered 3 that handles like crap! Let's hope some fine tuning was done!

Well, hopefully the AWD takes care of the torque steer!

Honestly, that price is pretty acceptable to me. The price per wheel thing has to be a mistake and I wish they had cooled seats but otherwise, a good overall package.

Lol, I wish it were a mistake. It's probably the correct pricing since they're made by BBS. Nice looking wheels and likely very well made, but just as pricey as any other BBS wheel.
