| 2004 Mazda 3 |
| Project Leader | Bill Montgomery - President, Corona CA
Why this car...We started this project in May 2004. Having fond feelings for the Protege it replaces, we were pleased to see the Mazda 3's boldly sculpted face, which bears a strong resemblance to both the RX-8 and the 6. We were also pleased to note that a dimensional increase will allow back-seat passengers in the elegant four-door hatchback to breathe easier.
Those praying for a whiff of sport in the sub-$15,000 range should put the 3 on their shopping lists. A Mazdaspeed version is in the pipeline, but for now you can view our Project Mazda. |
