+1

Love the blue colour (celestial blue they call it) looks alot like arden blue and really suits the new Mazda 3 shape IMO :)

I also really like the new Mazda 3 hatch, even the smiley face, I'm just sitting back and waiting to see if Mazda Aust. brings in the 2.2ltr turbo diesel variant...that would be awesome :cornut:

[Orion_996]

ahh right, fair enough, beauty is in the eye of the beholder anyway, so i won't comment on that

reminds me of the echo

[Manda88]

topgear aus is fully of typos, absolute rubbish UK edition much better. Aussie's just steal stories don't really write many of their own

Apparently it will be the 110kw version. Just enough to match the competition and keep the price down. No auto Afaik so a bit of a waste of time.

Lambo would cost alot more, and doesnt have 4 doors, its Porsche trying to get into the rich guy family car group, but keeping it sporty ala Jag

that 4 door aston is porn!

Looks like they've copied the Lambo :skep:

And all Astons are Ford running gear underneath at 10x the price LOL :lol:

Just trying to think which Ford has a 6L+ V12 engine under its bonnet ;)

[btm]

prefer the aston over the lambo, just going by looks of the 4 door saloon

[imay]

that 4 door aston is porn!


Porn in it's purest form, what's more! Effing lovely . . . almost as nice as the 2 door versions!

And I don't care if it's Ford running gear underneath, Ange. It's the looks I'm drooling over . . . I'd never be able to afford one anyway! Sexiest, most beautiful motor car shape that's hit the market in decades.
