The Mazda concept looks hawt. Damn.

I have to disagree with Jedi. I think the splitters really set the car off. I would totally trade in the RX8 for this.

Its a good time to steal some customers from Subaru when they're doing nothing to the legacy!

Too bad they aren't getting the Legacy STi.

Looks good, maybe not for the masses. I actually think it would look sleeker without the splitters as mention above. Gotta love Mazda's revival

Funny, this end of town, the Japanese (the Mazda 6 designer) have said no to a MazdaSpeed 6, there are NO plans..

I think the front looks crap...too heavy

Regardless, we've been able to source a couple of good photos of the concept and are hoping to have more information about all of Mazda's concepts bound for 2008 TAS soon.

Which is code for we have altered these from the new Mazda 6 Media Pics.

Unfortunately the MS6 was a poor sales performer, so do you think Mazda are going to burn more money...at least at the Mo.

Look at the front 'doctored' pic the front and side splitters have a ground shadows but the rear one does not?.

BTW this IS an observation.
