Mazda's new design theory is flow, and yes when I see the designs I think of flow, but another thing also pops into my mind... Sportbike!! Those things flow like angels, unless your suck at driving or you are watching one wreck. Anyways, I can see Mazda pulling off a ,900cc blue/white or black/white(Or any other color for that matter), sportbike. Look at all the new sport bikes coming out and they have a very technical flow style to many of em [Yamaha is beautiful on this personal view]. Anyways, they will deffianately get a deeper crowd and a much wider respect, I am sure. Also look at the opportunities in Mazdaspeed Racing for a new avenue, and an entire new marketing of the Mazda Brand than can possibly raise their car sales... Cause we all know Ford itself wont do it. Mazda would be more like Suzuki, but better because they started with the 'quality' auto before the bike. Mazda would than be balanced for sure!!! Plus I would just love to buy a blue/white Mazda 900cc MS6

Just the boy inside me and his dreams!!

That’s funny because I said that the Suzuki SV650S would be the Mazda 6 of sport standards.
When I read the reviews on the SV it reminded me of what people wrote about the Mazda 6. “…Great handling… Not as much HP… Can beat those with higher horsepower on the twisties… FUN TO DRIVE/RIDE!”

You are 100% right on the Yamaha too because if anyone looks at the headlights of an R1 or R6 and then look at the headlights of the 6….

It makes you think.

........Or Mazda could make something like this: Volkswagon GX-3 concept

It's not really a looker but it combines the excitement of riding a motorcycle, the stability of three wheels and the gas mileage and performance of a sport bike. If the GX-3 is put into production it will cost around $17,000. I will be the first in line if/when this comes out.

^^^ I've been seeing more and more of these kind of vehicles on the design table.
With $3 plus gas coming down the road it is only a matter of time...
I hope.

Never seen anything like the GX-3 before, looks interesting, doesn't seem to have as much go as the Bike though, but as far as gas mileage and still having that type of stability as it claims seems like a fun to even a smart investment. Another thing to add about the pro's is I bet it is very easy to park in small spots and to parallel that thing!!
