Replying to: aviboy97 (Jan 08, 2009 2:30 pm) So Mazda guessed high on the sedan volume and low on the hatch volume last year, or the hatch just sold better in the current economic conditions. Replies to this message: aviboy97 (Jan 09, 2009 10:30 am) tgassett (Jan 09, 2009 8:06 pm)

Replying to: biker4 (Jan 09, 2009 8:46 am) Here in North America, the sedan is a far better seller then the 5-door. Mazda ships about 70% sedans to about 30% 5-doors over here. Right now, there are not that many 5-doors left in dealer inventory and by the time the 2010's get here, they will basically be gone. They have made an assessment about the sedans and decided to offer aggressive incentives on the remaining 09's (5-doors too) to clear them out. I suspect next month they will begin to produce sedans for North America. It has nothing to do with what sells better. The sedan sells much more then the 5-door.

Replying to: aviboy97 (Jan 09, 2009 10:30 am) So even though the hatchback was supposed to come after the sedan, now it be on dealer lots before the sedan?? That is a very quick change to the original plans. But the sedan will still be at dealers in March correct? I certainly hope so. How well are the incentives working so far?

Replying to: aviboy97 (Jan 08, 2009 8:33 pm) I've been reading some misleading information online. The new 2.0 and 2.5 engines are in fact NOT direct injections motors. This is a bit of a bummer for me. DAve in VA Replies to this message: aviboy97 (Jan 13, 2009 9:56 am)

Replying to: dc_dave (Jan 13, 2009 8:15 am) Where have you read that they are? Mazda's official press release never stated they were DI engines. Europe get's a couple DI engines, if I'm not mistaken.

#142 of 653 misc by ANGMania Jan 19, 2009 (1:56 pm)
aviboy97...in regards to what sells better in the USA the sedan vs. hatch, I'm sure your figures are in line. But those numbers are misleading, considering the hatch comes in "s" form only vs. the sedan can be had at the more affordable "i" version or premium "s" version. btw - I've seen the hatch in "i" form over in Europe...not as pretty and does not do it justice...no spoilers, no skirts, & econo wheels changing gears...pics show the hatch finally having a rear key inlet...dead center, half way between the mazda icon and the bottom lip...has this been confirmed? other notes...rear wiper " rest position" has changed from passenger to driver; belt line crease, from tail lights to front quarter panels, isn't symmetrical with the door handles (or vice-versa) nor is it as fluid as it could be with the crease coming off the front quarter panel Replies to this message: exit123 (Jan 19, 2009 2:16 pm) smallcar (Jan 19, 2009 4:45 pm) mz6greyghost (Jan 20, 2009 5:11 am) and 15 more... smallcar (Jan 19, 2009 4:38 pm) aviboy97 (Jan 20, 2009 8:00 am)

Replying to: ANGMania (Jan 19, 2009 1:56 pm) Regarding the 'i' hatch - I spotted one in the Philippines about 2 years ago. Replies to this message: smallcar (Jan 19, 2009 4:45 pm) mz6greyghost (Jan 20, 2009 5:11 am) aviboy97 (Jan 20, 2009 8:07 am) and 13 more... exit123 (Jan 20, 2009 11:38 am)
