[http://www.7tune.com/mazdaspeed-atenza-coupe-and-cabriolet/](http://www.7tune.com/mazdaspeed-atenza-coupe-and-cabriolet/) > With the Atenza (Mazda 6) sedan and wagon variants failing to appeal to the Japanese domestic market, Mazda has come up with two new models to add to the Antenza line up including a new Coupe and a Cabriolet, as well as a new high performance model which - in Japan at least - will continue to be called the Mazdaspeed Atenza. Both new models will be based on the sedan chassis and Mazda hopes to achieve build quality on par with the BMW 3 Series models. The whole Atenza line up will mimic the BMW 3 Series range with both companies offering sedan, wagon, cabriolet, coupe and high performance models. Mazda will also produce a high performance Demio (Mazda 2) to address the demand in Europe for a more powerful version, although whether it will be marketed as a proper Mazdaspeed model is yet to be decided. Not a fan of the convertible, but i do like the coupe, at least more than the regular sedan! still would have been better making a coupe with the older style 6 IMO. wonder if these will make there way to the US. ---

I like the coupe. It would look 2784628 times better if it wasn’t yellow.
