A chassis made to manage each s-curve that comes his way. Quick. I want a car with the body and the soul of a sports car, but a car who knows that, sometimes, I want to bring my dog, my friends and my things. I want a car that has a sunroof which is actually a sunroof, not a Sun-quarter roof.
I want a car that causes the heads do - before even the first rev of the engine. I want a car that went from concept to showroom without meeting cut for the masses - firmly grounded. I want a MAZDA3 that annoys me - the everyday sports car, the 5-door which makes me forget that I am owner of a 5 doors. "
