Personally I liked the character of the 1600 as it was designed to be "peaky" whereas the 1800 was designed around a flatter torque delivery. The latter point is from one of the hardcover miata books that's still kicking around here

If anyone's near Sylvia park in auckland there's a promo thing for the CX3 going on. Get your (360* pic) taken and get a Mazda shopping and insulated drinks bags, and notebook.


Nice looking car too.

Voodoo knob? Nice weight, feels good and being deeply threaded it sits lower than stock.  I might've sold the monster but I'm keeping the voodoo knob .. In case, yknow...

1.5 or 2.0 skyactiv engines ... the 1.5 in the Mazda2 is pretty decent actually!

wow! this should be a great drive, given the lower weight, skyactiv (high compression) engine and front-mid balance. Looks amazing too.
