				I'm not sure what it is about the 3 but i dont think its a suitable substitute for the protege.  It definitely looks smaller at a glance, and i really dont believe mazda needs to make EVERY car in their lineup look the same.  Even the MPV has that front end now!

				I guess what they meant by, "Everything we build has the soul of a sports car," was that they all had the same front end?

				Its too bad they don't make the car in RWD or 4WD, I hear the 2.3 engine is boost gold mine, supposedly 300 hp at 10psi, check out the mazda 3 forums and you'll go crazy with all the aftermarket support...
Fun car, but I'm waiting till mazda gets their act together, nissan seems to be doing a better job if anyone has seen their 2 door mazda 3 hatch lookalike..
