omg! what did they do to the front! too curvish and softy! is that a freakin smile? the concept car was awesome! what the hell happened? i thought it was gonna look better than the new 6... i was wrong

[Hen]

IMO, the pre-facelift 2.0R looks better.

[elljay]

for me, it looks good, better than its predecessor

[memnon]

i hope they release a mazdaspeed version!  :cheer: i think even I would get the current Mazdaspeed 3 if it weren't a hatchback.

sanayan lang siguro.... atsaka baka nasa angle din ng shot

that pic just changed my mind pero siyempre kasi that car in the pic was already set up eh.. how about stock to stock? hehe and yeah. the front of the car doesnt seem to go wit the side? from the roof line it looks like they're still using the old mazda 3 body platform

[falken205]

parang may mali sa mukha i can't pin point, and the fenders/wheels seem a little small for the body.

this does not strike me like its predecessor did.

[jowes]

i hope they have a different version for asian and euro market.  parang naka-smile -- doesn't go well with the muscular fenders.

[freistil]

is it really new? or face-lifted and butt-lifted lang? the body looks like the previous model lang eh..plus the fenders and the mazda6 look.. haha peace!!

[chicong22]

hmmm... for the front, i think mazda tried combining the mazda 3 with the front of the Mazda Furai.

doesn't matter coz youre gonna end up modding the car anyway... i dont know but i like the hatchbacks better, maybe coz the hatch in the philippines look different than the ones here.

the platform is still the same, with the volvo s40 platform. just a few modifications on the suspensions and these cars handle like a dream... but im seriously not liking that front smiling face

hahaha! good point taken! and yeah, the hatches here look different nga, unlike the mazda 3 2.0 version na lumabas dito
I guess Mazda overshot wit the smiling face theme! hehe the smiling face looks a slightly "bitin" from the side. perhaps some kind of over fender would do the trick or something

oh my! what a big smile in front of you! nice work Mazda, Lancer EX pa din ako=nagagalit.
