Thanks...good info. I wonder how the 2nd row AC vents with fan will be set up? I imagine they'll be in the back of the front center console, although it would be better to have them in the ceiling or high up on the sides. With AC vents from the back of the center console you usually just end up with cold knees versus cooling the upper part of your body that's in the sun (cold air goes down and heat rises). Also, if they're up higher, then the 3rd row could benefit too.
But I do like the rest of the changes listed.

Yeah, whatever they do with the 2nd row vents should be very creative. I like your ceiling vents idea. For the Japanese market they managed to get the front passenger armrest, but it seems that they sacrificed the center console somehow, so it will be interesting to see how it will be offered by the other markets
Check the image, first picture. This is the 2008 JDM Mazda Premacy configuration:

Not sure if that information is correct as it does not specify AT or MT. If there are improvements on the MZR engine plus the 5AT for 2008, I would expect better numbers.
Check 2007 values from the Mazda USA Web Site:
EPA Mileage, City/Highway (mpg) - M/T 22/27
EPA Mileage, City/Highway (mpg) - A/T 21/26
The values map the M/T EPA mileage...

Hi Kivo! I think it's going to be in November, 2007. That's when the dealerships usually start bringing in the 2008 makes. I'll ask my Mazda dealer and get back to you.
