the 1 comes out very shortly. a fun car to toss around from what i heard, plus the interior is awesome. in last months issue of roundel i believe there was an article on it. i’ll try and dig it up, although there are other cca members on here who get the same mag as well. ---

yup that had to be it then. its sitting right up by the road. looks like i may have made a mistake on the speed6 to. well, kind of. atleast oversea’s there’s a new design that was just recently released that i missed. i dont know how im feeling about the look of the front though. hopefully thats just one of the options. ![http://www.mazda6club.com/images/news/mazdaattas128001.jpg](http://www.mazda6club.com/images/news/mazdaattas128001.jpg) ---

right now there’s no plans for an '08 Speed6 in the states. Only added features to the other models, and are using a different engine w/alittle more HP. ---

One of my friends drives about 35k miles a year in his G and he doesn’t let any weather slow him down, his luck with the car was why I bought one. ---

obviously the X (awd) G35 would be fine in the snow. I’ve heard Cossey mention his crappy experiences in the snow with his G and I have a couple other friends that have said the same thing. Also, some people are not a fan of putting snow tires on a performance car (I’m one of them). ---

OK, let’s get all “technical” then… :🙂 It’s a rally derived four door saloon with above average performance. … And one that I wouldn’t hesitate to throw (and have thrown) snow tires on. ---

my opinion is completely biased since I have a DD truck to thrash around in the snow. To each their own. and my response may have been a little bit snappy cause I’m sick of people saying that WRX/EVOs are rally cars so that means that they should be driven in the dirt/snow cause thats what they were made for.
