  correct me if i’m wrong. The newer black car looks like a Mazda SP20 Hatch. The other older one looks like a old Celica Supra or somethin.

  Since im european i dont really know what an “SP20 hatch” is.
  
  But in Europe that is a Mazda 323 hatchback.
  
  EDIT: The old one is a Mazda 323 Hatch. The new one has the same name……

  Yep, there’s 2 different Mazda 323 Astina generations there.
  
  Whether they are SP20s or not, can’t tell… could always be “mockups” hehehe. 👿
  
  SP20 is the 323 we got with the 626’s 2.0L engine. The base models get the 1.6/1.8L.
  
  The current Mazda6 has a 2.3L now, and the Mazda3 just got released a few mths ago. So now its SP23.
  (dang why can’t we get the Mazda6 with the V6 like the US does…!! blackeye: )

  because mazda figures most australian owners will get bit by flying spiders with 3 inch fangs. and since people will probably get bit while driving the mazda6 with the v6 and crash into a tree. when you could ship the faster car to america where you really are only in danger of getting shot.

  USA… land of the 55mph roadsigns. :shy:
  
  Oz… 100km/h but they ping you bad at 103km/h. 🙁
  
  At the motor show last month, Mazda previewed a
  6 MPS or something… 4cyl but with turbo and 4WD.
  
  Some talk that it will be delivered eventually.

  is this where i get set up and say ya its great, and you say “croikey!! that bugger was made right next to a sheep station!!”
  
  well bruce im gona leave you holden your nuts a little longer.
  
  and honestly i find hummers insulting. ya they are built like a tank(har har) but nobody in the states drives them offroad. they all drive them up and down clean pavement to walmart, work, grandmaw’s house and maybe the mall. they are afraid that theyd break it if they got mud on it.

  Yeah… the ‘old’ car is a “BG” series Astina SP (1.8L DOHC)
  
  The other (black) one is a 323 SP20 (or Protege5 for the US market).
  
  The blue one is ofcourse “Bruce”, my XR6T… He’s about to turn 15000km old.
