wow man what an amazing car, so thats how rotary works! That site is wicked, I wonder how much they will cost when in production. Oh I said gt3, Gran Turismo 3, they have the rx-8 in that game as a mazda concept.

Huh!? What's this about v6's, the Mazda6 that we get comes out in a 2.0l 4, and a 2.3l,123Kw 4, no old Ford motors!

Are you sure about that, I didnt really understand the whole ford thing but i considered the source and figured it true. Anyways thats awesome if they arent using a ford engine since you'd have all these mazdas going into the shop with engines probs cause of those built ford tuff engines.

I think it is a good idea for the V6 as ford concentrated on lower end torque while you still get mazdas top end.

If only it were a 2 door. I really hate ppl fixing up 4 doors, they are bigger, heavier, and look like a family car or something. But thats just my opinion.

In the new sport compact magazine the mazdaspeed protege came in second right behind the new dodge neon srt-4. But there is one thing that sucks. I was talking with the dealer here in Hampton, VA and he was telling me that they will not release the mazdaspeed protege here in Virginia, but a friend of mine told me he saw a commerical saying that there the offical dealer of the new Mazdaspeed Protege and it happened to be the same dealership that told me they were not going to release it here in VA. So i'm gonna go and investigate.
