sandman_kar · 07-10-2008, 10:33 AM

Hey has everyone seen the latest impression of the all new model mazda 3 due out next year? i rekon it looks awesum! Im thinkin gettin one, probably the sp25.

FOX33N · 07-10-2008, 10:40 AM

looks like the astra!

70NYD · 07-10-2008, 11:55 AM

ye ur right foxeen it does

sandman_kar · 07-10-2008, 12:39 PM

lol id get one of these over an astra any day! i hate the current model astra and i doubt the new one will b much different. The front of this 3 looks a lot like the cx-7. I really like it

70NYD · 07-10-2008, 12:52 PM

ye ur right it does look like a CX7.
talking bout crossovers
have a look at this brand new X6

its sex on wheels

i love it cus the 1st time i saw one when i draw past a bmw dealership i thought it was a scaled up BA

DavoAust · 07-10-2008, 12:55 PM

New 3 = astra meets CX-7, the love child you never saw coming.

it does look better than the current 3 though. atm they make me think of a chubby baby for some weird reason

marcs_sp20 · 07-10-2008, 01:08 PM

Looks to be a mix of Maz 6 hatch, Astra, Hyundai i30 & BMW 1 series... Looks ok, but i'd rather a Mazda 6 in comparison...

70NYD · 07-10-2008, 01:19 PM

how ugly is the new rx8 but

looks way to much like american muscle for my taste anyway

sandman_kar · 07-10-2008, 02:09 PM

haha yer the 3 has put on sum baby fat. i love that whole chunky look.

haha and i do love that new bmw. The design is not like a traditional 4wd. Thats kinda like who the dodge calibre is designed to be a hatch but looks like a 4wd.

I loved the series one rx-8 but yer i not much of a fan of the new model. It hasnt evolved enough and i dont particularly like any of the exterior changes they have made from the series 1. If i was buyin one i would def got 4 a series 1. They look hot in blue with a bodykit and sunroof.

mussing · 07-10-2008, 05:05 PM

Looks like an astra / peugeot 307 / etc.

Kinda disappointing that the styles are merging more.

And the Hyundai i30 looks suspiciously like a Subaru Impreza from certain angles.

02-KQ-LASR · 07-10-2008, 05:18 PM

new mazda 6 for the win.

IMO they're finally making it look like a sports car

2009 RX-8

project.r.racing · 07-10-2008, 06:55 PM

i like it... just looks like the current mazda 6. hopefully the tail-lights wont be copied from the 6.

70NYD · 07-10-2008, 11:32 PM

okay so it looks better from that angle than from the angle i saw it. the only pic i saw it in was the add they have next to the airport. it was a disapointment so i didnt bother looking on the net

rodhog · 07-10-2008, 11:53 PM

Looks like another bit of plastic puss to me.

YES PLASTIC PUSS.

Just wait til lthe pistons are plastic. rest of the motor almost is.

Ah X6- Are you feeling alright. it's not a SUV or even cross over. The owners would get scared it would scratch something climbing over a meadian strip. THe painted type.

I still hate the over advertised flying wing badge up front.

ye but thats how it is with most "4wd" these days. long gone are the days when people took their landrovers out to the bush... sh!t they are 120000 when they were new i wouldnt want to scratch that either. n as for the new cross overs they just offer a less robust option for bigger families that need the room to drive around in, but dont wanna drive around a tank

at lest the bmw is 5k cheaper

bourbon · 08-10-2008, 10:11 AM

hhahahah a true 4wd is either a little ****y tin box like the sierras & vitaras... then also the hummers

H2 and H3...

Rupewrecht · 09-10-2008, 11:48 AM

X6 is lame.

This apparently is an official shot of the new 3 Sedan.

mussing · 09-10-2008, 12:45 PM

Do want!

Putonyourshoes · 09-10-2008, 01:16 PM
