Sounds pretty good:
Mazda could have been much more conservative with this new 3 and we'd still be calling it a Motive favorite. Heck, they could have let the old car run for another model year and we'd continue recommending it to friends. Instead, the new Mazda3 makes a big move forward in design and a smaller, yet still noticeable, jump in dynamics. A hatchback version will surface soon at a European show and both cars will go on sale in the first quarter of 2009 at prices yet-to-be-announced. Mazda is mum on a new Mazdaspeed variant, but we've already seen spy photos that confirm it'll come soon enough. (We can't wait.) Thanks Mazda, for taking one of our favorite small cars and making it that much better. Thanks, too, for not messing it up.
