looks like mazda is going to release the mazda2 here a little sooner. i think it's a good idea. the ford fiesta is getting all the shine and people are talking about the mazda2 as if it is based on the fiesta when it's the other way around. think by any chance we will get the 3 door?? i doubt it, but that would be nice. here's what insideline says:
"According to Takashi Yamanouchi, President and CEO, Mazda Motor Corporation, the on-sale date of the Mazda 2 hatchback has been moved up in anticipation of strong demand.
He wouldn't be any more specific, so it could be a week or maybe a couple of months earlier than the original July 2010 launch.
Either way, it's a sign that Mazda feels pretty confident about the emergence of the ultra-compact hatchback market. Or maybe, like us, Mazda is sick of hearing all about the Ford Fiesta."
