    Post Mazda and more car auto products

    According to the latest issue of Sport Compact Car, Mazda is releasing a sport wagon called the Mazda MP3. As it's name implies, it will be sold with an MP3 player as standard equipment. It doesn't say whether it is CD or HD based, but im assuming CD based (since the price of the car is expected to be less then $20,000). No release date is mentioned.

    In other car news, Konig has released a style of rims called MP-3. These are a three spoke design. You can see them at Konig's website: http://www.konig.com
    Other then the name, they have nothing to do with MP3's but it was in the same issue of SCC, so i'd figured i'd mention it.

    Ah, Sport Compact Car....My favourite rice magazine . I happened to just start reading that issue today, so I will look for that article. Seems more and more these days that Mazda is the only manufacturer that is actually innovating...

    I think Mazda is just sticking the Kenwood head unit in the car (the one that can play MP3's on CD-R, Z919?), it's nothing new that you can't already buy on the market.

    Yeah, that's what I assumed. Its just interesting that they are using an MP3 player as stock equipment.
    I wonder if metallica is gonna boycott mazda now?
