That's a complete deal breaker. 5-8k too much...
Ummm....That's Canadian dollars. Closer to $20k - $28k USD.

At least it's easy to tell our bills apart at a glance  .

Thank God...but at todays exchange rate, it still seems a bit high. What is the projected price in the US?

Well, if it's dollar for dollar, it's $20-$28K like was said. Which makes sense, as that's the exact price range of the Mazda6 which this car essentially is.

Ours too, they have numbers on them you can read. [humor]Which is the key difference as the literacy level of our beer producing hockey playing neighbors to the north need that color coding to distingush a 5 from a 10. Don't get me wrong, I love Canada. I spend 2 days a week there. After all, the largest parade ever held in Canada was to celebrate the genius of two Molson swilling Don Cherry fans named McKenzie  [/humor]

As of right now there will be a stick with the 4-cyl. but only a 6-speed auto with the V6. Deal breaker for me too. Hopefully they'll release an SVT version with a stick and an upgraded stick. We'll see...

If they have a 270 horse, 5 speed version by 2007, I would buy one. I just hope my car will last that long.
