I like the European design better but our version isn't that bad either. It looks very happy from the rear.

The Euro 6 looks good, the Atenza looks decent, and the USDM model that was caught just looks frumpy.

I think it's a big mistake on Mazda's part not to give us the Euro model. The US model from the spy pics look awkward and out of proportion.

I have a feeling that Mazda might mess up the styling of the new 3.

I only see regular round tips. Where do you see LS460-like ones??

I guess Acura is adding the chrome eyebrow b/c Mazda/Acura grills and front ends look pretty much the same.
