#11 of 2744 That's what I thought. by mazdafun Feb 11, 2003 (8:55 am)
Mazda has new 1.8 (?), 2.0 and 2.3L I4 engines. The smaller ones and some diesels are already offered in Mazda6 outside of NA.

#15 of 2744 Hi etea- "lot more going on there.." by revka Feb 14, 2003 (2:43 pm)
I believe that discussion is linked to both the Sedans and Future Vehicles board, so it's getting a little more exposure. If people want this one linked up, they can send the Future Board host (Kirstie) an email. Thanks again for the information. Talk later.   Revka Hatchbacks & Wagons Host
#16 of 2744 official concept release by etea Feb 18, 2003 (2:35 am)
http://www.mazda.com/publicity/public/200302/0217ae.html   enjoy!
#17 of 2744 Vibe-esque by bpwpr5 Feb 18, 2003 (12:26 pm)
This latest "official concept" image goes along with the info I've heard/read about the car. I saw the same guy from Mazda (the mid-south regional corporate rep) at a dealer yesterday who reiterated the intent of the car to be a cross between a 6 and a Vibe. That makes the back windows/C-pillars in this image about right. Although they're not my favorite (why would you want to copy a Pontiac, even if it is a Toyota), the overall stance is tough. Our "sportif" version, as this official release calls it, should get the larger 2.4 I-4 to differentiate it from the normal 3. Let's hope. Still targeted for Nov 03 US launch--anything new on that front?
#18 of 2744 release... by etea Feb 18, 2003 (4:54 pm)
So far, it looks like January, from what I've read.. But I hope your dealer is right!   Can you check the two pics I posted above? Is the rear accurate? I can't stand the hatch... it is too european to my taste..!   Etea
#19 of 2744 Love the HB's looks, hate the sedan's raised stance by dinu01 Feb 18, 2003 (5:35 pm)
Let's wait until we get a 360 of both cars before we pass serious judgements.   Dinu

The two silver AutoBild pictures look extremeley photoshopped--esp on the hood and hatch--hence the REALLY BIG Mazda logos. Notice BOTH wheel styles from the 6 are shown here--are there really TWO entirely different prototypes out there being "photographed"? Doubt it. Although it looks a little airbrushed, too, I would trust the official release more than those more photoshopped ones.   We WILL have to wait to pass final judgement. I like the "official" one except for the back window, but I could live with it.
