Rods, I got a RElaiable source at MAzdaspeed NA. and said to me at SEMA. "No more 4 door veichles are slated to be released by Mazdaspeed in the US."
Damn, so I guess it'll only come in a hatch version. Oh well, Ill keep you guys posted

haha you guys are funny. The truth is, unless you work for MS NA you really don't have any clue. I bet these "sources" are just saying stuff because you believe them! but anyway, that is not a "mazdaspeed" as we would have here in the US. As someone has said already, MAZDA makes body parts and performance parts for almost every car they make. even the Demio gets some cool stuff. since both mazdaspeeds are totally different companies, we will have to wait and see what gets released here in the US. Since everyone is playing along though, I will too.....I think they chose the hatch version to go head to head with Hondas Si, and possibly go after SUBARU...also on a side note...I know for sure MAZDA is on these boards. I remember when the Sportif concept came out, I did a photochop of it and made it have a "mazdaspeed kit" its funny how much of those ideas that were in my design, ended up in the final design....yup
Never noticed that they were different, but now that you point it out, I agree 100%. No 3 hatch for me!vodapas77 said:I just don't understand why they elevated the hood line and swept it into the A-pilar on the hatch. I'm not a huge fan of either 3 but the sedan gets my vote out of the two because of the smooth hoodline.
None for me either. It's cute and all, but even if they make the 3 into the speed....sorry, guess I'll go back to Honda

Not even if it came with this:
"By early 2005, performance junkies can expect a turbocharged Mazdaspeed 3 sports compact that should pump out at least 200 horsepower (or up to 240, if Mazda decides to offer an all-wheel-drive version). The hotted-up 3 should be followed by Mazdaspeed's take on the mid-size 6." from money.cnn.

All this comes from a friend that works at mazda.
