First, I was pretty pumped when I read this portion regarding the taillamps:
...the twin horizontal bars in the bezel are imbedded with LED light strips.

That's a nice surprise and delight.

However, I was bummed when I read:

The climate control system for North America is a logic-control type; Europeans get a fully automatic system

It also mentions a bit about the weight of the 18" wheels:

Mazda says the 18-in. wheel is one of the lightest cast wheels.

I'm only on page 61, so there is a ton more to learn, but it's a great book, thus far!

Shit, did not know we would be tested later.;)

I thought the car pictures and initial driving articles were of great interest but after that I lost will power a bit but clearly it has been well researched and put together.
