in ******* love.

don't go rushing in now...you don't want to say it first...play it cool!
wait what?

if the hood scoop can be more efficient than our current ducting in getting air where it needs to be then i like it...if not then it is BAD in my book...

So we're all going to dance around the possibility that the scoop might not be functional at all?
(peep)

 

[protojason]

But, my question is...

Is there still a 'mazda mustache' hidden under all that camouflage. . .?

 

[boosthead]

2010 speed3

I dig it. I think it has the potential to be really cool. Can't wait to see it with no camo.

 

[nate0123]

I get the sense that there may be furai/grinch-inspired evil grimace lurking under that camo

 

[coolmazda5]

Cool, new MAZDASPEED3 = Winner

I like....wonder if the R3 wheels will come stock.

Doubt it, those rotary cue wheels are awesome, but the MS3 <> rotary

I like the idea of a MS3 diesel

Europe maybe, NA, no way. One of the threads around mentions that the new Mazda 2.2L Diesel has better numbers than the current 2.3L DISI Turbo

 

[dmitrik4]

i think (hope?) we'll start seeing more diesels in NA soon. this would be a good start.

 

[Renzokuken]

I will totaly buy this car ONLY IF they

-Keep the hood scoop.
-give it AWD
-lose the ghey smiley face
-give it the 2.5

If either one of these factors are missing, I will not buy it cause the current car is the sex. Knowing how Mazda is, and has been, I will probably be disappointed.

 

[neox.286]

dude the hood scoop is the sex!!!!

 

[stockms3]

assholes!!!!.................why o why???...........Im not really happy about the fact that they are making it, I thought the speed3 was going to be made for only 2 years and that was a huge factor in my decision.

 

[altspace]

^why?

Get over it.

 

[magnumP5]

Oh noes, something faster has come out now all the MS3 guys get butt-hurt. How dare Mazda make something faster/better than the holy MS3?!

So how many trade-ins do you think will happen when the new MS3 is released? I will admit, this is a new move for Mazda which, as has already been mentioned, typically only releases Mazdaspeed cars during the last few years of that particular model.

 

[neox.286]

hmm, you bring up an excellent point magnum....

maybe I'll cop an 'original' speed3 after the new one comes out since the market will become saturated with used 07-09s (flash) (friday)

 

[daonly1around]

i will start to show interest when they actually show a US version....

 

[RODSCALIP5]

New MS3 FTW!! Can't wait.

 

[altspace]

Guys it's not an all new version, simply refreshed.

 

[nate0123]

I thought the '10 Mazda3 was an all new version, so why would the speed be any different?

 

[Olestra]

Thinking you bought an "exclusive" car in the $20-25k range is laughable. If you wanted exclusive, you should have bought a ferrarri.
