3)The new Mazda 3 MPS will be ideal for group N.It will have 4WD with around 300 BHP.The only problem is that it will have a 2.5 liter engine,but that can be solved by putting a 2.0 liter on some market (just like Subaru did with the last generation Impreza9
4)They are showing some signs of waking up by their programmes is Australia ,etc.
5)They have announced their plan for a R2 Mazda 2 (we havent spokeen about it here).There are even some pictures.
I would love to see Mazda back.

That Mazda 2 is not R2. It is local Australian project of cheap rally car. Only the future will show if it can come to something more...

I know but they said could make one either in an S1600 (wich I doubt,its a dying class) or R2
The problem is that they dont have an appropriate engine

chris thinks it's an urban myth as well.
i asked, and his take was that the suby engine is more tuned for mid-range, while the citroen and ford engines are revvier.
mexico, he reckons, just suits an engine with its performance in the mid range, and he doubts it has anything to do with altitude.the wise man does at once what the fool does finally - macchiavelli
