Mazda Minagi Concept

http://wot.motortrend.com/2011-genev...agi-35583.html

I don't know about everyone else but I love the look of the pre-smiley face mazdas. I have a 2005 mazda 6 and its been awesome! Ive driven a miata, CX9 and a 3 and they all handle quite well and are fun to drive.

Im hoping with the new Kodo design cues all their cars will return to their original glory. As well as their new sky active technologies. Super high compression gas and diesel engines for the united states and more efficient transmissions.

I cant wait! Might have to buy a mazda for a family hauler in a few years.

the new nose is much better. Mazda's glorious return is at hand!

The 2012 mazda 3 is getting one of the sky-G engines and sky active transmissions. Supposedly there should be a 10%-15% gain in FE. So it'll still be slightly behind the new focus, cruze, elantra, etc. but I bet it'll drive much better than all those. Ill take that over a couple MPGs anyday
