Question Rear windows???

Hey guys
I was wondering if the rear door window opens with power or manual operation?

I believe it's manual operation (of the rear windows) ...this is per the Mazda dudes at the Toronto Autoshow (and per inspection on the inside)....

On the pre-production models they were manual, hinged at the front, with a pivoting latch at the rear. Enclosed I think is a pic... I guess not.

Why have they not shown us any pictures of them open, are they going to look ugly when so?

Normally little tilt windows look great!

Somewhere I saw a pic of it with the window open, but I can't remember where. At the LA Auto show the model on display had operable rear windows. It looks like you would imagine it to. Functionally I imagine it wouldn't do much for ventilation for the folks in the rear, but the flow-through for us in the front should be good.

The BMW 3 Series has that window type thing as well, but to my understanding it is automatic. I think it looks wonderful with it open and could not imagine it looking bad at all when the window is open... not to mention all the extra air flow that will be going when i have the sunroof/front windows/rear vents open... ooohh baby... I get all excited just thinking about it-
