Any news if this is coming here?

For mine the 2 needs a traditional fuel-gauge, hate these electronic bar types.

Needs a 5 speed auto and a trip computer like the Jizz has

I agree CRV is rather weird looking, but i prefer the Civic’s design to the giant smiley face of the mazda 3. I think of the current generation Mazda, only the 6 and MX5 is good looking, 2 is funky but somehow looks cheap next to Fiesta.

yeah because of the reduction in Tariffs and the strong Aussie Dollar. Not such a genius now are you?

All the vehicles in the Mazda range should now have the smiley face. So from a distance, a Mazda is instantly recognisable. Just like with BMW and their kidney grille.

Can’t wait for the RX7 to come back (if it ever does). It should look good.

In Australia, the Honda range is mostly sourced from Thailand. Why is it that Honda NZ can offer a similar range of vehicles (made in Japan) for a comparable price. This just doesn’t make sense.

Accord Euro is built in Japan, not Thailand…

So how does Honda justify charging so much for their cars considering the FTA with Thailand? They haven’t given an explanation for this so i doubt they can.

People go on about Mazda’s design direction but IMO the CRV looks like a mutated frog on LSD and the Civic is just plain ordinary bordering on ugly!

The 2 is one of the better looking compact cars around and the update is well executed.

correct – actaully the quality should be better because for some reason the people in cheap labour countries tend to work harder
