Default What DON"T you like about the NEW 3?

What are some of the things that you just do not like about the 2010 3? Here is my list:

1. Looks just like the Saturn Sky!

2. The back looks a little too plain...

3. The hood is no longer tapered. It gave the old 3 a nice touch

4. I Just got the 2008 3! Now I have to buy the '10 3

5. The interior has Wayyyy too many buttons. MAzda needs to keep it simple. it looks like the cockpit of a space craft..and it looks like a civic remake...It's not as professional looking.

The idea that this car is getting larger takes away from its appeal for me ... the reason I bought my 07 was, it was a compact witha nice blend of handling, engine performance, MPG and exterior styling - exterior styling that was sporty, modernand not in any way kitschy.

The super size headlights and much-white tailights, as well as the front end with black cavities laden bumper, imo go beyond what I think of as the edgy/classic sweet spot. Thereis some speculation on the net that different trim levels will havedifferent front ends - if true, this is good news.

ic, below is allegedly a look at the new interior.

1. Tailights look like a lincoln, too much chrome for a tailight.
2. If you look at the back of the 08 three it looks like a nicely curved woman. The new one looks like a Hundai
3.Aggreeing with Kevin, the hood needs more curves and taper.
4.Wheres the HB???

off-topic:
If you are all wondering why I have "edited" your posts, it was only to eliminate the growing apostrophe in the title. I have been substituting a quotation mark for it. That won"t grow into infinity....

Where is this SOFTWARE UPGRADE????
