And it still doesnt show where the rear lap belts will go. I don't think the metal trim on the transmission tunnel will make it into production. It would get too hot and scratch easily as an armrest.

Also the instruments still have that yellow cover... which isn't (Apparently) going to make it into the final version..
I think this is still the yellow concept version. Also, somone from Mazda UK said at s motor show that the start button would NOT feature in the production version.

I still appreciate the new pics. More eye candy is just fine with me. The one shot of the rear seat makes it look very narrow. But who cares about that anyway?
I am hoping we will get to see the pre-production model at the next big car show. Isn't the Paris show next month? That would be the place to show a pre-production version of a spring release.

Cards
Speaking of cards, remember back in '99 when the Evolv concept first hit the newstand and evey car mag. had an article or some tid-bit about it? Well, I remember, I think it was "Automobile" magazine, reading about Mazda offering a card that can be tailored to specific drivers. It was like this card can be programmed, depending on the driver and his/her abilities. Horsepower can be decreased/increased, braking force could be decreased/increased, suspension settings can be changed and so forth. I thought that was a great idea and I hoped it would make it into production. But it was a "concept" feature. It's kind of sad when you have those kinds of ideas and they don't make it into production, because they are nice ideas. To me, the automotive industry can move painfully slow because they offer these concepts and they don't make it into production.

Have any of you received the promotional cd that Mazda sent out? It's a mini CD in the shape of the Revolve Rotor (different than the 12A or 13B rotors. I'll see if I can't post the files on to my website.
