    Not a fan of the extended use of black on the interior... Glad to see North Americans finally get to enjoy centre vent louvers though.

    Pretty sure the Indigo Lights Mica is darker... and indigo-coloured...

    Actually it is the other way... the Indigo Lights is lighter than the Sky Blue..
    Damn you photobucket.....

    I thought the 2011 models already had the closing vents?

    Wow, that's weird. I had thought THIS was what Indigo Lights Mica looked like... Or rather, that's what it looks like in Europe...

    EDIT: People also said at the auto show THIS was the Sky Blue...?

    That euro shot of Indigo Lights Mica looks like on a cloudy day. Today's pics are in the bright sun light. Makes a big difference but ya I thought it was the other way around too with Sky Blue being much lighter.

    Gotta go with Jeff, he knows what was ordered.

    My bad... I just went to check the car.... apparently we recieved a couple of sports.. I thought this was the Indigo Light (38K)

    Turns out it is in fact the Sky Blue (41B)

    Sorry, about that folks..

    In other news... check out the interior night shot.. love the blue highlights...

    FYI, only the GT trim has the hideous blue ring around the gauges. The GX/GS gauges are red only, which IMHO both looks better and is also better for night vision.

    SKYACTIV PRICING!!!!

    Mazda3 Sedan
    GS- SKY Manual $18,995 <- $500 over the GS w/o SKY... But $600 less than the MSRP on a 2011 GS..
    GS- SKY w/ MR Manual $19,890
    GS- SKY w/ MR & GSL Manual $21,190

    Mazda3 Sport
    GS- SKY Manual $19,995 <- $500 over the GS w/o SKY... But $970 less than the MSRP on a 2011 Sport GS..
    GS- SKY w/ MR Manual $20,890
    GS- SKY w/ MR & GSL Manual $22,190

    I knew it would be a little more expensive, but only $500.. I am impressed.


    Estimated Fuel economy..

    2.0L city/highway = 8.7/6.0 VS 2.0L SkyActiv city/highway = 7.1/4.9

    HP - 2.0L = 148 VS 2.0L SkyActiv 155
    Torque - 2.0L = 135 VS 2.0L SkyActiv 148

    As always you hear it here first.

    keep in mind that this is a GS with Luxury.. so the interior will look a little different on a GT..

    If the 2.0L SkyActiv engine is any indication of what Mazda engineers are capable of when they put their minds to it, I'm really looking forward to seeing what they eventually craft as the replacement to the L3-VDT (2.3L DISI Turbo).

    Thanks for the pricing details, Jeff!

    That GT Looks Awesome! I'll have to stop by and take a look in person.

    Are you sure that's not a GTE?????
