I love my Honda Fit, but .................

Last I heard the 2 was actually the last model Mazda signed off before the whole "Nagare" (flow) theme was applied...infamously to the Mazda3 as the "happy face."

Its coming to canada too - mid 2010 I hear
I like it and thought about it, coming from a protege 5, but needed something now and long term owning wise, I think the fit will hold out longer, esp with the bad roads in montreal, and hold its value moreso.
But its going to be fun soon, with the 2, fiesta, micra, and maybe a vw polo?
somehow I doubt the 2 will cost as much as the fit
but anyways, we need more of these types of cars and I've said before in this class, anything over a 1.8L engine is way too much

Fog openings are huge and ugly. I do like the door handles. Ours seem like ready to come off in your hand when you lift them.
I would get tired of that green soon. We could always spray it Taffy White and call it a Mis-Fit.

Very creative and made me smile! +rep
Yeah the base model looks better to my eyes too...but there have been worse bumpers for the Mazda2/Demio. The bumper seems to make a HUGE difference to its look. I saw an aftermarket "tuner" one in Option magazine and I hardly recognized it as a Mazda2/Demio from the front.

This was what I was referring to: the Knight Sports Demio (DE-chassis).
Check out the front bumper on that thing...I hardly recognized it as a Mazda2 at first. Not exactly a fan of the rear-end treatment either.

Some cool pictures here:

I'll take one for a test drive soon as I'm thinking of replacing my 2007 GD Jazz.

Like but i got the fit for its practicality (sp) i was gonna wait for the crz - but realized that i cant move stuff in it like i can in the fit (i've moved three times in my fit and all i needed help with was my matress and couch - everything else fit (pun intended) even my full sized washer and dryer) i agree it looks good but it's not a honda

I had another long test drive in the Mazda 2 a few weeks ago and I wasn't impressed at all. It felt like I was driving in a coke can. It was much smaller than the Fit inside, less power, lots of vibration and very unstable at 100 km/ph.
Looks good, but not the usual Mazda quality.
