Saw them the other day at the dealer, i dont like the sentra headlights or the weird shaped front bumper and grilles. But the fact that the 2.5 now comes with 17 inch rims that look like the 3.5 09 ones with michelin tires, turn signals, folding mirrors, and projectors is pretty cool. But i got the salesguy to turn on the projectors and guess what, they're halogen they look the same as the older mazda's.

So kinda angry that they changed it so soon and made a ton of approvements, mostly changing every problem most people talked about. But im also happy because i dont like the front end, its not aggressive compared to our 1st generations.

My .02 cents

I was at the dealer getting my car inspected and when I came to pick it up before I left I looked at the new A/Cs a bit. I must say they do look better in person. The pictures make the front end look goofy but its not too bad when you see it in person. That being said I will still take mine with all the stillen goodies on it over the stock 2010 ones.

halogen on the not specked out one. the top end 3.5SR has xenon. and btw , who cares if its halogen or not, thats an easy fix compared to retrofiting a whole projector in the car...
