USDM AWD 3. DUDE. I don’t even care that it’ll probably be aut0-only I bet this thing is going to be a riot if you can get AWD with the top-trim 2.5 engine.

Manual, top-tier engine, and awd you say ?
The only way this could get any better would be if they offered rwd....

Gosh, sure sounds like they have everything they could ever need to make a nice Speed3... “Nah, lets put the turbo in the CX5 instead!” - Mazda executive.

AWD, Skyactiv-X, auto only with G-vectoring control. Calling it!! I will buy it as well.

My wife’s CX5 is actually pretty fun when you push it so this could be a blast

If they gave it a manual, a 2.5, and AWD; I’d be really interested in one. I know the manual is a big if, that probably won’t happen, but it would be cool.

Welp, now Mazda has my attention again! Hopefully one of the engines comes with a manual transmission and AWD.

Coolant
? I don’t get it. Are you thinking of Subaru and their head gaskets?

Great news! Now c’mon Mazda put the AWD system in the Mazda 6 2.5Turbo already!

I think the current most reasonable speculation is that all engines will have a manual option (like they do currently on the 3) but AWD will be auto-only.

Honestly doesn’t sound too bad.

Why would that be a riot?
We know that motor won’t be very fast, it won’t be a manual, and it’ll probably be some haldex-esque ‘fwd only 90% of the time’ AWD facsimile .
The interior looks great, sure, and the sedan looks good, but a Mazdaspeed3 this is not. Basically what I’m saying is where’s the damn speed3 Mazda?!

Yeah that's my guess as well.

Oh gotcha.
I actually wrote out a long diatribe but deleted it when I considered that there may be some needling involved.

I had been holding out hope for manual AWD 2.5 hatch, but I’m so put off with how ugly it is that I find it hard to get excited that it’s a step closer
