Thank u sirs for the heads up. But mazda 3 kodo sure can meet 2013 ah? I heard the show car debut is even in Sep 2013 auto show (Paris or somewhere). Now having second guesses already nanti menyesal if the new mazda 3 arrive soon. How lah...

EDIT: just got off the phone with bermaz glenmarie rep, he says confirm not this year for the mazda 3 kodo. Next year will launch around 140-150 the price range. Sorry didn't ask for more info as I asked the rough estimates only.
Basically, Bermaz stop production for M3 (2.0), clearance (left ice blue color). M3 (1.6) still on.
This is bcoz M3 skyactiv (only 2.0).
Imagine if S.A telling u the fact like... "we r stop producing 2.0 due to skyactiv ll be launched soon"!
Significant : No 1 ll buy unless they extra discount RM25K!
All in ur hand bro.
The info is M3 (2.0 skyactiv) ll be launched very soon.
Buy now (u ll get 2009 technology) & last few months expired
Wait a few months, latest technology (at least 4 years in freshness)
Mazda is transform to all Kudo design.
Current Scenario for 2.0cc
CX5 RM130K
M6 RM155K
Price ll be reduced very soon 20%-30% as government promised
M3 (2.0) skyactive
Just wait for next 6 mths
Get fresh skyactiv engine RM0.12/km or current RM0.18/km (petrol price never down)
Fresh sporty design (satisfaction)
If M3 skyactiv 2.0 is RM130K-RM140K, ppl ll go for M6 (2.0)
Remember Altis ll launched new model very soon
Google - Altis 2013 Shanghai
This is my personal opinion to share (I'm waiting to own M3 skyactiv too)
