Ah! Dynamic Stability Control!!
http://www.mazda.com/csr/safety/active.html
I discovered this system in the 6i VE my dealer lent me when my 3 was in the shop and some bimbo pulled right out in front of meandstopped right in my lane in a first gen Durango while I was going 65mph.
If you have to make a very quick transition, as I did then, you will notice it.
I had two of them (6i VE"s)for a total of three days and I got into more (potential) trouble in that time than I get in my 3 in 3 years!! People just didn"t seem to see them.

During understeer, the DSC reduces engine torque and applies the brakes to the inner wheels to limit front wheel side-skid.
During oversteer, side-skid of the rear wheels is reduced by applying the brakes to the outer wheels.

RE: DSC
I had 2 different ones: the first was a dark(er) gray-silver (more silver than gray.) In one day I nearly got rear ended @ an intersection I NEVER have a problem with.
The second car was a much brighter silver and in 2 days of driving that car, I had 2 different people pull out in front of me... the most immediatewas the incident that I described above. I really thought that was gong to end up in a hospital visit, at least. (SCARY) A few seconds after, my heart was pounding... and the stupid bitch that almost caused it then passed me @ the next intersection on her way to making a left turn and never even acknowledged that she hadnearly killed me (her right fender, my left fender and hood.)
