Ditto! Please, that thing needs some style!!!
I don't like it ... period.
but I've got my new P5 to love. I'm actually glad I don't like it. Don't you hate it when you go out and buy something and see it on sale the next day, or your friend buys one a month down the road and his/her's is cooler than yours? I do.
And whats even better is that there are only two years of my P5 to see on the road, add that to the fact that I have yet to see another Laser Blue one, and my car (to me at least) feels like one of a kind.
Anyway, the styling queues are too much like Honda. The fenders look like an S2000, someone already mentioned the si. And they had a good thing going with the over sized fog lamps. When we asked the question "is it a hatchback or a wagon" about the P5, they decided to make sure the Mazda3 was a pronounced hatchback to clear up any confusion....i like having a wagon.

from the Mazda3 website;
Much more than the sum of its parts
Think youve figured out what compact cars are all about? Think again. The MAZDA3 is about more than the typical things you get from a compact, like efficient transportation, versatility and good gas mileage. A whole lot more.
Its about getting a ride completely unlike the typical compact car and more like what youd expect from the engineers who just got finished designing the new Mazda RX-8. The MAZDA3s suspension is engineered to provide the sort of curve-hugging, road-gripping, quick-steering response you get from a European sport sedan. The engines are designed to provide plenty of oomph to power you out of a tight curve.
Its about getting far more than youve been led to believe is possible in a compact car. Like standard 4-wheel disc brakes and available 17-inch alloy wheels. Like a choice of 2.0- or 2.3-liter engines -- the sort youd expect to find in bigger and more expensive cars.
And of course, theres plenty of cargo room, passenger room and flexibility to get you, your friends and your gear wherever you need to go. Youll just have a lot more fun doing it than with any other compact car.
The all-new MAZDA3. Coming soon.
Ummm, where would I find a more expensive or bigger car with a 2.0 liter engine? Unless they mean a late model 626

of course it's slapped together...it's a development car, not a production model.
the reality is that the 3 and focus will share a platform (along w/ the volvo S40). the reality also is that ford has made huge strides in the quality control dept, and that mazda was in the toilet until ford stepped in...
People once said that my parents (now my sister's) 1990 Chevy Lumina MPV minivan (also the Pontiac Transport and Olds Sillouette) looked like a 'dust buster on wheels' because the hood and windshield were at the same degree angle. If so, the Honda si looks like a pocket sized dust buster. . .at least from that angle.
