No..Its not a new Mazdaspeed vehicle and no its also not the new Mx3. But what it is, i figured you guys would get a kick out of. We built it in my autoshop class this year. We simply call it "The Short Car" It among the other vehicles in the shop were donated from people fed up with their cars or donated from automakers(Honda gave my school one heck of a christmas present last year
) It was originally a Mazda Protege 4 door. We cut the roof off, basically removed the middle portion where the driver would normally sit, and welded the back end to the front end...if that makes any sense...lol
Enjoy..

lol oh yes, it is by far the ugliest thing around. Next year we are going to do the body work to actually make it look like it was built that way, give it a good paint job.

amusing that the sign on the wall says "Front End Service" when most of the work's been done on the REAR end

i took my hatch off the other day and it was so sweet and refreshin and looked sweet,but its just a pain to take it on and off,somebody should make a custom cover.
