Here it is folks, the worst dissapointment ever for an MX-3 owner.
<p>The protege 5 looks better than that.<p>Its just a prototype, so We'll see how that goes.
Most of mazdas Protoypes look better than the actual thing usually (the Atenza prototype was better looking than Mazda 6, but I do like the 6), so Im awaitng big dissapointment with this one.

Use the Search feature. <p>Ive posted a few times about it, mazda is making 3 cars, the 3, the 6, and the 9, replacing the 323, 626, and 929.<p>http://www.goonish.com/atenza/read.php?TID=127<p>Thats not the concept of the 323, read that thread on the mazda forum, for all thats interested.<p>Just so those who havent read... know, its designed by Mazda/Volvo. Mazda and Ford will share this platform. Not sure what Volvo model will use it, but Its supposed to be the 2004 Ford Focus as well.<p>[ January 06, 2003: Message edited by: Custommx3 ]</p>

isn't it that car ??<p>http://www.brasilmotor.hpg.ig.com.br/n1314segredo.htm<p>Just asking

But they're not coming out with the 3 or the 9 in North America, are they?<p>one

the ford focus is the same car.<p>Nice link...
but wanna see something confusing <p>http://autoscoop2.topcities.com/mazda.htm<p>Maybe this is it....

Yea this is the same car..
http://www.dinside.no/php/art.php?id=33960<p>Since the 323 in Europe is a protege 5 in the states, my guess since mazda is replacing the 323 with a "Mazda 3", they would be using a wagon or a hatch.<p>The ford Focus will be sharing the same patform, as in the 350Z and the Infinity G35. They will be similar, but maybe different. Also as an example would be the Ford Rangers and Mazda B-series pickups.<p>http://autoscoop2.topcities.com/ford.htm
Heres a link to the new ford focus, same platform, maybe th same car. <p>

I consider 4 door hatchbacks to be wagons.

whatever the car is, it is major fugly!

ya i dounst look too good

c'mon guys,,,,
i am famous for dissin other cars,,, this car doesnt look that bad, first look it came to me that its the new AUDI A4,,,,
it looks pretty decent for a japanese car,,,
at least for a wagon its amazing guys,,

its cuz ford got their greedy little hands on mazdas sweet ideas and blew it all to sh*t.

Here ya go... thats the new mazda 3/Focus<p>Im not impressed.<p>Mazda 3

i dunno, i think it looks to much like the mazda 6 (as it says in the link). Not sure if i like it or not...guess i'll have to wait and see
