I dislike the front ends on all the Mazda's and this ones no exception.
I think the designers try to put smiley faces on them..I hate em'.
And the wrap around bulbar...not for me.
The rest looks pretty good though...I like the wheels and tyres.

Agree with most other comment apart from the extremely ugly face, the vehicle itself is a winner, with better availability than the Ford (probably due to the lower demand).
