Im worried about this one guys the "DEMIO"

[marcus]

i think we may have a contender here... mazda2 aka "DEMIO" i believed its got 103 hp but lighter than our yaris..im scared..:eek:

[BailOut]

But it's a Ford. That a big no-no.

[marcus]

well mazda built..id say its 90% mazda... im a mazda3 fan as well. cars was quick almost bought it but fell in luv with the yaris....

[derrick452]

Its built with Fords quality control....and think of what the resale value is on Mazdas. Its a lot of bells and whistles, but its still inferior. Id buy the extra protection on it for sure!!!!

[steved]

I wouldn't buy it.

All the dealer ships seem to be coping the Yaris design in one way or other.

[black Ice]

it looks like a Yaris wanna be to me :biggrin:

[petesimac]

Not even close; no cute, shortened, curved nose, no middle of the dash instruments -- just another small car. Ours is unique!

[marcus]

i second to the "Yaris wanna be" comment....

[Nigal]

The Mazdas look awesome but as everyone else has stated, you just can't beat Toyota quality and longevity. My mother in law has a Camery with 225,000 miles on it.

[xed]

North America will never see this...only as a Ford (eg Fiesta) variant...

Cheers


Agreed. Just as soon as they redesign every ounce of style out of it, remove each desirable option, limit the color choices and then slap a Ford emblem on it and deem it "ready for the American market".

[marcus]

wow this is definetely the way to kill my dream of getting this car thanks guys! hehehehe now i see the light! :thumbsup:

[ddongbap]

x100.

[marcus]

yo guys notice most angles , cut, mold on this car is a yaris... wait a minute its yaris's cousin!!!! whoah!!!

[Masteraal]

well in the australian delivered model it has one key technology i wish the yaris had...stability control... thats the only thing i regret... BUT its a good $1500 more than the yaris....so bugger that :p

100% Incorrect.

Styled & designed by Mazda.

Ford have bought the underpinnings to run their next gen Fiesta.

This has been on the Market here for a few weeks, and lets just say, when you see it in the metal, its not as good as the photos. I pitty the poor person trying to get in/out the back. The slope of the roof line towards the back is extemely poor.

Yaris is still better value for money.

That's too bad, since I like this car, yes I like the Yaris, but this car is cool too. I especially like the green one. Also its too bad Mazda isn't bringing the car to the U.S.:thumbdown: Apparently there is no market which is B.S., they need a car slotted below the Mazda3, I rather buy a badged Mazda than a Ford even if the underpinings are the same.:thumbsup:

you are talking about the Yaris - yes?.......er.........no? the Mazda?

...........eeeemmmmmmmmmmm

confused now.

you live in the United States?

if so you'd see the irony and folly of your statement WRT the "options" and "colors"


not to mention the hypocracy.

- the fact that we have no "mint green" no "canary yellow" no "interesting blue" (just boring blue) and a stock "red" - and no manual with power package and no side airfucking bags and no fog lights and no ABS - even as we special order and pray to the Virgin Mary and wait until the cows come home.

and you have the gall to slam Ford for a car that is at least two years away from even showing up here - let alone in what shape or form!!

Toyota has had TWO and HALF YEARS to fix their fucked up no-optioned no color choice BULLSHIT NO CHOICE for the Yaris in America!!

unbelievable UNBELIEVABLE! you can type your statement with a straight face!!!


I can only conclude that you bought an AUTOMATIC SEDAN (where there are limited options (unlike Manual Hatchbacks where you are told to "fuck off" by Toyota....... like Mr Ford said about color choice for his model T).

Lol. worthless.

[DV-002]

Lol. worthless.

Yea, seriously.
My Yaris doesn't have keyless Smart key access w/ start engine button, automatic climate control, 6 disc CD changer, navigation, 6 speaker audio and a long list of other options.
Plus I can't order one TRD style with a turbocharger . . .

I might have gotten the Mazda 2 if it were available.
But the Yaris does have superior build quality, a tiny bit better reliability, and I predict it to have WAY better resale value.

Mazdas with a ford power plant find the nearest juckyard.

I got my Blazing Blue (interesting blue) side airbag no power options 5 speed Lb, exactly what I wanted, in about 20 hours from my down payment deposit...that's terrible isn't it...

[alhope34]

We were able to get our Yaris with every option we wanted, too. We had full choice of everything. The dealership was great to us.

My HB is a manual with power package...

The only problem I had was that I couldnt get the Blazing Blue manual with power package. :mad: So I had to go with my second choice of color, white.

EDIT: On second though I hereby edit and retract all statements. I simply can't respond to that. Instead I'll just sit and smile.

[alhope34]

Ford has owned Mazda for many years now. A lot of Mazda cars were also Fords. Like the Probe GT/MX6 for example. In that case though, I'd take the Probe GT over the MX6 any day =D
