really not feeling those new rear lights, and the front look like it needs mouth braces to correct for an overbight. new model doesn't look a patch on the original

I just can NOT get used to that underbite. I think the silver and the white ones look very well rounded on the front. If I were shopping, I'd consider that trim first. Honestly, I wouldn't consider the underbite trim at all.

There are things I like, things I don't. 19x8 +50 = lame bicycle wheels tucked too far in (too bad, they are a nice design and a great color... if only they were 19x9 +40). Too much random plastic around the oil coolers. Love the new rear bumper and the Recaros. Great pics, thanks Wolverine!

Looks nice,...sort of....

"New and improved Joker products! With a new secret ingredient: SMILEX. Let's go to our blind taste test: Uh oh, he's not happy. He's been using Brand Xssssss! But with new Joker brand... I get a grin, again, and again!

That luscious tan, those ruby lips, and hair color, so natural, only your undertaker knows for sure. Aha ha ha ha ha ha, I know what you're saying, 'Where can I get these fine new items?' Well, that's the gag. Chances are, you've bought 'em already! Hah ha ha!

The wheels on the red one look cool... Hmmm I wish there were more changes. I guess we'll just have to wait on that.

Damn, looks hot.
I hope someone starts selling some of the R3 parts I would love to have the seats, even the gears.

I was looking at the Japanese Mazda site, and they already sell the new 19 inch wheels, RS bumpers, skirts, lights, etc. (http://www.mazda.co.jp/)

Me too, looks much smoother than the current model. And I'd prefer the kitschy rotor shaped ***** on the seat than on the front and rear bumper

Why wouldn't it? It's all mainly appearance changes, everything else is still the same as the earlier models.
