I used to love it but I think the new changes are a bit drastic.

Overall it's a pretty good looking car. The headlights look too much like Infiniti/Nissan though.

I think its good looking andMazda has some good cars out there. The 3 for example, compared to the other cars in its class it is a much better car.

I like it overall, the only issue is it feels a little too flashy on the interior. I drove one the other day. It handles like you would expect and the I4 offering feels more than adequate. The interior is a bit of an overkill for my taste, but it has soul unlike the Accord or Camry, and is nicer than the Altima with the interior.

The front looks like it's vacuuming the road, I don't like it. I Liked the old one much better.

It looks like it's smiling...

I don't really like it or hate it, kind of apes Nissan's styling though. Also what is up with the chrome trim around the windows on all these new sedans? First time I saw it on a Lexus I thought the guy riced it up then I find out it's factory... bleh.

I always liked the Speed 3 hatch better

My thoughts exactly, looks like the current Altima/Maxima meets Mazda...
