Autoexe tuned Mazda6 (Atenza)

August 1st 2008 00:15

Specialist Mazda aftermarket tuner, Autoexe, has given the new Mazda6 - Atenza in Japan - a makeover complete with an aerodynamic bodykit and upgraded handling via a raft of suspension components such as lowered springs, adjustable stabliser link, tower brace set, strut tower bar, and many more.

The bodykit features a new front bumper incorporating a large air intake and a dynamic character line that extends from the front fender. The rear also features a new bumper which houses a set of quad exhaust tips around the under spoiler while a set of 18-inch 5-spoke wheels round off the cosmetic changes.

The biggest changes occur to the chassis which has been tuned to deliver even sharper handling response and firmer grip via an upper-lower two level brace kit that evolves body strength and sturdiness by adding more volume to the monocoque body structure and the sports tunable suspension.

Intake, exhaust, and brake upgrades are also available with nearly all the aforementioned upgrades adaptable for all Mazda6/Atenza body types, including 5-door sport , Sport wagon, and Sedan.

Mazda 3 - More features, improved safety & better value

April 8th 2008 06:50

The aging Mazda 3 has received an upgrade to give buyers additional features, improved safety and value for the popular small car.

The entry-level Neo and mid-range Maxx have been renamed as Neo Sport and Maxx Sport respectively while the SP23 and MPS models remain unchanged. The entry-level Neo Sport now comes with 15-inch alloys, electric windows and mirrors, new seat and door fabric in black and an MP3 auxiliary jack for the audio system as standard.

The good news is that price remains unchanged at a competitive $20,990 for the manual version. The Safety Pack option (curtain air-bags etc.) is priced $1700 and the automatic transmission is a $2000 option.

The Maxx Sport ($25,500) and Diesel models gets newly-designed 16-inch alloy wheels, revised cloth interior trim, chrome external door handles and a centre console finished in Piano Black gloss while the SP23 is now fitted with DSC (dynamic stability control) and traction control as standard. The SP23 ($29,600) also gains seat and door trim from the top of the range MPS in lieu of the previous Luxury Pack option.

The hot-hatch MPS version ($38,750) gets the least amount of upgrades with just a new cloth trim featuring red highlights.

Four new colours - Copper Red, Golden Sand, Metropolitan Grey and Stormy Blue - takes the total number of colour selections to 12.
