European reviews are starting to come out....

http://www.quattroruote.it/news/prim...ne_video_.html


First translations:

- 1.5 is the preferred engine according to Mazda
- 7500 rpm redline
- this is a prototype, production cars available in August
- electrical steering is a bit 'light' around the center
- car weighs 997kg only 30kg more than the first NA
- 1.5 has 131hp
- price (for the 1.5) will be similar to NC

997kg is just under 2,200 lbs, but I believe someone translated that as dry weight, not curb weight.

Reminder, this is for the European ND and not the American 2.0L version
