Ehhh...no. Maybe if the oppening was a little smaller vertically, and what's with the double foglight treatment in the corners? Not liking the 2 round lights at all with that oppening, maybe one sort of triangular shaped light, coupled with a slightly shorter oppening and it would be good.

Very good looking kit. A local independant shop up here in Edmonton, Alberta is now an official supplier for these, around a thousand loonies. I am extremely tempted. The best part is the shop would install it for me too, for reasonably cheap.

Wow. Pretty cool for sure, nice work!

Just wondering if any of my fellow Canadians have had one of these shipped north of the border, and what kind of hoops would I have to jump through to get one?

Just wondering if anyone that's had a "2" for awhile knows of any readily available mods? Have found a rally suspension from D2 Racing that looks interesting, and a co-worker found a body kit available at a local independent shop that looks pretty good. Mostly what I'm after is a little extra...

Yeah, Canadian dealers know enough to use low temp washer fluid. I would know, I've worked at a few.

In Canada we have a similar problem with the rear suspension, up here Mazda has a service bulletin on it, I found out when I went for my first oil change and they asked if I had the noise, yep. So they fixed it free of charge and the noise has not come back. Temperature wise we're hovering...

Heh, I love my home province of Alberta. Once a car hits 15 years old, if it changes owner it needs a basic inspection for insurance purposes, but that basically just checks that all the lights work, the brakes have life left and the seatbelts work.

A Mazdaspeed version would be awesome. Have only had my 2 for a month, logged just over 6500kms and am already wondering what I can do for upgrades. Great little car but I can never own anything for long before I crave more power/more speed etc. As for what it should have? Turbo for sure...

"Poly" Because I discovered it likes Nirvana. I don't normally name my cars but this one just popped. And, previously posted name "gizmo"...awesome. I had an old Ford EXP named that because it had "gremlins"
