2010 Mazda Shinari Concept

[68fastback]

I usually don't pst Mazda stuff but this sems to clearly telegraph that Mazda is now serious about a 4-door true sports car.

The write-up released today is a bit over-the-top, but there's a tradition of such when they're serious about something -lol. Very pleasing design concept overall.

At least it doesn't have that stupid happy grin all the current Mazda's are sporting. lol

It's a beautiful car. I hope they put it into production.

yeah, I'm not wild about the funny 'smile' on some of the Mazdas. Not as bad as the hideous look of some years of the Honda Acura tho :doh2:

I'd hate to try and see something through those side view mirrors. :surprised:

...'concept' mirrors -lol. ;-)

side body lines look too much like BMW Z3 or Z4, can't recall which.

...does look a tiny bit like the Z4 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_Z4) maybe?
