Hmmmm, unless one of those Mazda designers had a wet dream (sorry, too graphic), I don't think so :D

Easter egg? A depression enhancer tactic?

An AWD 'Speed version of the five would be very good at capturing my savings.

Esp if it it still a 6 speed and offers a moon roof.

*raises hand*

And some more subtle tail lights (eek2)

Oh oh... and the system that helps you not roll back on hills, when getting going uphill--like the new Nissan GT-R. (rlaugh)

Tail lights I agree, after seeing the new Mazda6 (2009) and all the Mazda5 tail designs since 2005 it seems the Mazda designers were smoking something there. But for the rest of the things come on, not to roll back on hills? That is lesson No 2 if you drive manual transmission :) (Lesson No 1 is to locate the clutch, and the shifter :))

If all the rest of the toys are "really" needed by you, then I would suggest something like this in the link. Please note it also drives on its own, so you don't have to do it ;)

Oh, or you may also want it all for under 22K, right? :D

Haha, that thing would suit me just fine (naughty)

I wasn't totally serious about the anti-rollback. I think it's funny that the "supercar" such as the GT-R has this feature (at least in Japan).

(wow) Really? oh well, good info, I won't buy one then (lol2). Now, in all seriousness, don't listen to me, but that and DSG (and its variants) are the beginning of the end of Manual Transmission as it is.

Yup, I read about it on Nissan's website. And what you said about the DSG makes me sad! Let's hope it doesn't happen!

LOL. Thanks for the source. Well, take a look of some M Bimmers, latest EVOs, some VWs (and now the GT-R). All "High Performance" vehicles, yet manual Tranny is not that commonly available anymore (Remember 6MT?). Some people argue that the Manual Tranny will always be there due to low cost, but who does not say that DSG can become as cheap as Auto or even Manual itself? Goodbye clutch pedal!

Anyway, this is going off-topic, but I'll mention something later @ the "official GT-R thread" :). mikeyb will like it though ;)
