I've owned a 2009 Mazdaspeed3 and it is indeed a very preppy quick car. The torque is crazy on that car. The new model is just too gay (as in happy). Big smiling front bumper. Headlights and taillights are ugly. Styling is subjective, but many agree that it's ugly compared to the last generation. The power is nice, but owners had the hardest time pushing more than 300whp because the motor couldn't hold it. From what I can recall, the rear motor mount is very weak and breaks. The engine moves like crazy under the hood. Torque steer is very apparant.
