Does it count as a powerslide if its wet?
Anyways it looks like there is a new set of rims (just a quick still of them right at the beginning). I like them a lot more than what has been seen so far just a classic spindley 5-spoke which looks pretty light:D

Bryan, you should change the prefs so that it doesn't stream, and will buffer the entire video before playing...
i'm on a Mac, and so know absolutely nothign about d/l'ing Media Player stuff (i got Media Player for Mac just to watch this video!! i've not used it before on an Apple before this...)
AND I"M SO DISAPPOINTED!!! the Zoom Zoom kid shoulda been screaming!! damn, that car looks hot... see the friggin' slalom??? and they're BABYING it!! (hence the "power slide" in the wet...
)

For those of you who can't stream it, find a program called "asfrecorder".
The URL you want to record is:
"mms://wmt-od.stream.ne.jp/mazda/wmt/020927/01_300k.asf

Thanks Blue, That plays soo much better now before it was very pixely when I played the streaming vid and it is much larger too. Great Job!! It's really nice to have someone that really knows what they are doing on boards like this. Since your such a pro do you think you could pull a still photo of the rims?

After watching the clip for the hundreth time I noticed the cooling ducts at the front appear to be larger then looked at some older pics and you can see that there is a difference the older ones have an additional insert or something because you can see a line and it appears in many pics so its not just the angle or anything like that.

18s are fine by me, I don't even want chrome.
