If you want a sedan the ford is cheaper $13,995. For whatever reason the hatch is 2k more than it. $15,795. So the Mazda is cheaper (At least the hatch)

Maybe we get a Mazdaspeed or a GT version of sorts sometime down the road?

I think it's hideous. Geo Metro, welcome to 2010.

Of course it's hideous. It's a contemporary Mazda.

Why would you even bother to post this?

It's not like anyone here would actually BUY one.

*facepalm*

I was excited to see someone producing a light car selling less than $45k.

I have a 2010 3. I agree. Previous gen was cool, though.

If we can get Nissan to make a 2400-2500 pound car with the 200HP QR25DE motor we would have a winner.

I know I am dreaming.

The Altima 175 hp QR with CVT gear box at 3,300 pounds gets 33 MPG.

If Nissan made 2 models

1. with 150 Hp QR20DE with CVT in a 2500 pound Nissan and we are getting 40 MPG ( Old School Sentra 1.6 )

2. with 200 Hp and 180 Lb Ft Torque the QR25DE with 6 speed trans at 2500 pounds we would get a 33 MPG car running 14.3 @ 98 MPH ( 2010 Spec V @ 3,200 pounds runs 0-60 @ 6.7 sec and 14.9 @ 93 MPH )

We would have a high performance winner with a nice little gas sipper

If Nissan made the QR25DE with VVL tech the shit would hit the fan. Can we say QR25VEs @ 230 HP and 190 LB Ft Torque.
