Points of interest from the brochure

Well I thought they were interesting, anyway. They've all been debated in other threads at some point:
  • Curb weight with popular options: 3053(4AT) / 3029 (6MT)
  • Center console DOES include a 12-volt outlet
  • The Spare tire kit includes a tire if you get it as an option, but somes without one if you buy it later as an accessory!

Huh? How is it a spare tire accessory if there is no spare tire?

It's called a spare tire mounting kit and comes with the hardware and a spare wheel but no spare tire (!).

What are the "Night lights" listed underneath the accessories? Are these the lights underneath the mirrors that light up the ground when the car gets unlocked, or are they some other interior lights?

I also see that the "Polished Aluminum fender strakes" are listed, but I thought that we could not get those in the US. Does anybody know for sure?

An aldehyde filter is the technical name for a cabin filter. Go here for the Mazda press release on aldehyde filter's.
