It should really fit unless the problem is that it doesn't fit vertically.

gear the Mazda2 for acceleration? Who cares about going fast in a Mazda2? How goofy. The car is just going to be slow no matter what they do, unless of course they turbo-charge it.
 
How about ghastly mileage being more of a concern? If I bought one I'd drive it hard if I wanted, putz around like a Grandpa in town if I wanted. I'd have a ball with the thing, gear-head bewazzled or not.
 
But a car like this should get at least 40 mpg, it's ridiculous that it doesn't. Oh well. Still my favorite Mazda by a long George Bush drive. Now watch this drive!
