Not bad at all sir. I've read somewhere in reddit that dealers in the US usually charge 300 to 400 USD for the retrofit including labor.

That's good pricing. The AA/CP kit upgrades the old slow-charging USB ports, too.

And this is the new SUV Mazda came up: a raised Mazda3!

Looks like Mazda borrowed Subaru's idea of raising the Impreza, aka Crosstrek/XV

Nice to see it have a center arm rest/console. Looks much better than the current CX-3. Though it is starting to look like the other models. Nice sideview too.

Too much plastic trims around the body for my taste. Those trims are really difficult to maintain, even with solution finish black trim restorer.

But the front grill and tail lights are really nice to look at, and the dashboard interior too.

+1 on the plastic. Paint will be easier to keep looking fresh.

Yes another SUV. And yes the new CX30 has too much black plastic and it is ugly to look at.

I think they should build a performance car other than the MX5. A V6 or a turbo I4, an RX variant or a completely new one.
