I was wondering if anyone had a pic of the 3 in Orange. I just totaled my 2001 Focus and was looking into getting a Mazda3 5 door. Thanks..

the mazda 3 doesn't come in orange like the Mazdaspeed. But you made a good choice. If you do get the M3 tell us how it compares to your focus

Personally, I like the titanium. Maybe I'm biased.:)

One's the US name and the other is the Canadian name (it's all those marketing folks). Bottom-line, as melicha8 says, the Mazda3 orange is nothing like the Mazdaspeed Pro orange.

One needs to see this color in real-life before they can properly evaluate it, it's much different then in pictures. For example, look at this picture from Bruno's page:

The bottom two don't even look similar but they're both the same color (I took that bottom-left pic).

Those window stickies of the 6 and RX-8 on the dealership windows are sweet!

I saw the MZ3 "orange" and I didnt like it...
does anyone know if the "orange" on the mz3 is the same as the "orange" in the MZ6?

MZ6 orange is sweet....or maybe because of the light at the auto show...

The colour codes are NOT identical, but in reality they look very close (i.e. you'll only notice a difference if you place them side-by-side)
