I had a seriously hard time figuring out why everyone doesnt like this style... Until I saw what it looks like from the front... That smiley face front does look stupid. Other than that, it doesn't even look any different to me.
The new Speed3 isn't out yet, but people have said that their regular Mazda3 manual transmission cars have rattled. That's to be expected from the first year release of a car which is why it's recommended not to buy a first year model.
I'm talking about the Mazda speed 3 rattling, not the mazda 3. Anyway, $25,000 cars shouldn't be rattling in the dash and windshield. The 2008 editions of the Mazda Speed 3 are notorious for rattling. Read the hundreds of entries on the blogs, of people spending their time trying to dampen the rattles. I was very closng to buying one, but not now.
I take it you're talking about the grille? A lot of it is just black paint and the "big nose" is non-existent if you get the car in black. Mazda chose to make that style of grille to make sure the engine gets enough air while being very aerodynamic, and I believe they've done that. This car has the lowest amount of drag then any other car in it's class because of the new "nose". Cars of the present and future cant keep looking like ones from the past, we have to innovate and move forward.
its a nice ride, i really dont like the front end but back looks sweet, and there will be a 2.5 engine instead of a 2.3 engine bc i have an 06 hatchback and everyones says its a sweet ride for the money, this new 3 not so much
Wow I really really like this Peugeot Design!!!

I would suggest getting a 2008.5 model or higher for the MS3. I haven't heard any issues from those ones.
