Very eager to see what Mazda can bring to the table

i doubt its going to be directly ripped out of a 3. im sure there will be differences. they havent mentioned anything either way so i dont know why youre calling them lazy. i dont think mazda cares about the twins. just like they didnt care about all the other competition. whether thats a good or bad thing boils down to opinion but i appreciate the fact that they have always built the car they want instead of responding to the market. thats how compromises happen and its why cars are heavy and have 400hp..
