People live and work in Hiroshima? I'm no scientist, but shouldn't they all be dead from lingering radiation? I would think some of them have got to have mutant powers at least.

Anywho, this looks pretty sweet. I definitely like the color.

Hmm, speaking of radiation (hahah, I'm so off topic) look what I happened to come across on Slashdot. It's about bears living in the Chernobyl area. The mutant offspring is clearly going to strike back against humanity.

For once I wish mazda would actually make something about a special edition special.

Like a reworked intake and exhaust system, some blistein shocks, maybe different sways, a lower stance...I mean come on...something.

Oh boy...brown leather. Whats next? Chrome cupholders?

^^^

or a leather covered interior light ****!....

I agree Crossbow, It is about time Mazda NAO and Mazda Australia offered more to their buyers/customers.

Mazda Japan have ALL (well most) options available domestically with their Web Tune Factory, etc.

Its up to the DISTRIBUTORS of MAZDA in each country to request what specs they want...it can be done..

As the Executive Designer "Callum"says in the WHEELS article that Mazda Owners are and have become an enthusiast's brand, how about more real options...

Mazda are still a company that makes great cars, but, they are SOOOOO Conservative at times, they tippy toe around and don't listen to the people.
They were like that when I worked at Wholesale Distribution and Retail decades ago, before Ford got involve and there is still that conservative element there today, take a look at their world website's layout/design as an example, old looking and out of date.
