I dont see the MS3 having more than 300hp...
And I don't see the Caliber going on a diet to lose 1/4-ton either.
The Caliber weighs as much as my Mazda6 does -- up to 600lbs more than the last-generation Neon, and ~400lbs more than the Mazda3. (Though it's obviously unknown what the respective performance versions will weigh)
Not to say that the Mazda3 is going to be faster; it very likely won't be. Making the fastest 1/4-mile car in the class is never one of Mazda's high priorities. But the ET difference will probably be less than pure numbers make it appear.
