yah, they dropped the weight and also the powerband from the previous gen. which is fine, but the fastest ive seen is 8sec 0-60mph time and that's probably with a tranny shattering like glass launch with a 5k drop.
rolling start to 60mph is 9.5sec how do you manage living with a 10sec rolling start car when they're asking for $22K?

2K more and got a mazdaspeed3 tearing up the road with sub-6sec launch.
