Hey but if you think that is a Mazda and not a car that is going to save your world it’s good looking, or at least interesting.

This site continues to present a LOT of clowns’ views with no taste in cars … this thing, as a few others have mentioned, is horrible looking. The front end screams Pontiac Sunfire. The rear end has droopy design features personifying a sad and disgraced look. The side, with the unnecessary and overdone scallops, looks amateurishly busy.

‘Mazdaman’, I agree.

OOPS!

My previous post should have read: “My faith IN Mazda’s designers has been restored.” I guess I was so relieved that this wasn’t an indication of the next gen Mazda3 that I forgot to read my post prior to submitting it.

My bad!

Thank goodness! The car in the pictures is hideous. My faith is Mazda’s designers has been restored. I can’t wait to see the real deal soon.

I admit I was hopeful that it was at least 60% correct.. but I stand by my earlier post on the previous article that the grille and greenhouse is probably very close to accurate, but the headlights, front fenders and door handle placement are quite obviously different from the sedan mule we’ve all seen, and from Mazda’s other current offerings. While I do like the conceptualized rear end, it was a bit too much Audi- and Alfa-inspired.

Why is this even a question? There have been spy shots of the new 3 running around the net for months and it looks nothing like this. Sad… as I like the mockups.

Thank goodness it’s a fake…

Ugly in my book.

Droopy snout…. and what’s with the cellulite above the rocker panels.

Too busy…. gimmicky look that would not age well.

This rooozski should get a job at Mazda.

Or maybe better yet he can save Ford.

Whoever thought this up ought to be designing cars.

I’m actually surprised that anyone thought it’s not a Photoshop job.

I mean right? These renderers make pretty darn good designers.

Mazda should inspire the real one on this one.

Aww… that’s too bad. It’s a really nice design overall.

Thank god it was fake. It’s a bit silly looking for what is supposed to be an economy car. I do like the front and the rear borderline, but everything in between is overdone.

who cares it’s junk, looks like they’re jumping on the Honda bandwagon copying the (ugly) BMW 5 series
