More importantly Mazda - bring us a Mazdaspeed2, as long as it looks like this:
Okay, maybe not in that particular color combo (I like it, but I don't think I'd want to drive it every day), but this would be one cool, practical, little daily driver with a 200 hp engine. Looks a lot sharper than the new Mazdspeed3!

It only goes to show when people can no longer discriminate on the grounds of race, religion, or sexual orientation, they can improvise and still find someone to hate. - Dave Moulton
Like it. A lot!

I'll just say it. I like the iridescent green wheels. Must be the fumes.

So is this thing a rebadged Ford Fiesta??
A bigger monitor is not the fix for the large images... even with a 24" monitor, not all people want to run browsers much wider than the typical layout. I typically run my browser window about 1050/1100 pixels wide at most. This gives the 'grid' some room to breathe.
That said, vBulletin can (with a little code help) control the max width of images posted with the IMG tag. There are a lot of implementations methods, some of which can be found on the official vB hack site.

On the subject of the car, yeah slick as hell and great looking even with the green wheels (orange would look hawt!). A US version of this would be neutered to some degree, and would have the boring glaze applied to the exterior. Market segmentation ruins cars. As a consumer I say, if a great car is going to cannibalize the sales of a mediocre car, then rethink/eliminate the mediocre car (or the 1400 'crossovers' in your lineup that are likely too close in specs anyway). But nobody builds cars for consumers, they build them for markets.
You are a product.

That looks a bit closer to general production than the photos I've seen thus far. Show me a true 'Speed2 at dealers and I'm in.

I was going to buy a Yaris, but I think I'll wait for this!
What's left of a '96 Miata with stock clutch.
My car exceeds my driving ability. That's the only possible explanation.
I like this but I'd still rather Toyota's new REAR wheel drive monster.
