Has the 3 not had the dual exhaust? I know my 4 banger 6i 2.3 did.

Wow Mazda uses some serious and rediculous ways of hiding what ever new changes there are to the 2010 3. I really hope that the dual exhaust does not make it into production. Its to small of a car with not enough power to even warrant the look of a dual exhaust. The MS6 looks great with one, as do the standard 6's, but a 2.3l smaller 3 looks awkward imo.

no it didn't...i think the psuedo dual exhaust on the 6 was to make it look more sporty.

I think the dual exhaust probably warrants an engine bigger than the 2.3L. Mazda would like to be in the 200hp Club now.

Exactly what I'm thinking, Jack! Dual exhaust usually means bigger HP right? The M3 has to compete the market which has just changed the Lancer, the Gayolla...er Corolla, and of course, our favorite...the Scion.

But if they're going to do that, why not change the body style a bit? Pfft...
