Hey guys, I found the Japanese website for the Mazda 3, or the Axela as it will be known in Japan. It has more exterior pics as well as a spec sheet which I can't read. Hopefully someone can translate for us. There's also interior shots - 99% unchanged from the concept as far as I can see. This car looks like its going to be a winner.
