love the fact that that you cant tell if it is hatch or sedan from the pic
 
Keep going we need more info. Anyone know of an expected relase date. Id love to see it in person. Or better yet test drive it.
 
Guys this is not a repost...nor is it missing pics...Look below the pic...There are all the proper links for more info! This is a site wide announcement! :)
 
i should print these pics and take them to my mazda dealer...

i went and test drove the 3 and asked if he knew when the mazdaspeed3 would be coming out and he told me that he knew 100% that it would never be made...what an ass
 
actually the grill on the first picture is a sedan grill. this has been discussed in the other thread. the grill is part of the bumber in the sedan, and part of the hood in the hatch.
so us sedan lovers still have hope.

clearly a hatch - the sedan's hood doesn't have the huge raised portion in the middle
 
the raised portion is hint of the same ducting done for the mzspeed6 to avoid the use of a hood scoop, but per pics on the other thread and other forums, its a girl!...i mean hatchback. fans of 4-door sedans are speculating a possible sedan version in the works but at the moment it is just wishful thinking.

not what I'm talking about - if you look at the standard sedan and hatch, the hoods are completely different - the hatch has a raised portion that goes from the grill to the windshield, the sedan's is nearly flat

see?

hatch - raised

sedan - flat

yes.. there is a slight additional articulation within the overall hatch hood, but that's basically the hatch hood

my point was just that it was obviously a hatch, just from the front view
 
wow that thing is gonna be pretty fast... too bad they couldnt do nething to make it un ugly
