i don't see any difference :confused: they even kept the ride-height pretty close. Add some bigger brakes, and change the production ready doorhandles, and you've got this:

well i like the concept grill better.... maybe its just the angle of the first shot... because i had never seen the concept in that angle.... the side profile looks smoother in the concept vs. that first pic... i guess its the angle.

Not a fan of the grill. Cars in this segment just dont excit me anymore.

I personally really like it. :)

Dayamn Mazda! You got it going on! First the 6, then the RX-8, and now the new 3. I'm pretty impressed that the final version is pretty true to the concept. I like the wagon, but where's the sedan???

Kazi, where did you get those images? Is there any official information on specs?

yianni64 Jun 26, 2003 02:35 PM

The 6, the RX-8 and this all share the family look very well, almost too you. From now on, youll know a mazda when you see one, before seeing the badge. Not many other companies pull off a family look so well, especially this low in the market.

Very nice for a hatch, but i still dont think it's nearly as nice as a sedan 6 or the coupe-like RX-8.

it's not that bad. i agree on the grill
