[dmeetro]

@ u


thats definetly a millenia

[MilleniaOn18s]

yep that would be a milly. technically, though, the milly did hold the place of the mazda 9.

[roofadoofalus]

the milly was a huge improvement over the 929

[seldomseen]

man, i thought you created this thread cuz you had pics of the 9. when is it supposed to get released?

[roofadoofalus]

i dont have any information about the 9, so i created this thread as a place for others to put the information they do have

styling of the Millenia (updated, of course)

how can you possibly update the millenia's styling???? i think the 2000 look is absolutely perfect. i can't think of anything i'd want to change, externally, besides maybe the headlights

[roofadoofalus]

i personally like the styling of the 99-00 as opposed to the newer millenae. certain things can be done to update the millenia, especially the interior.

explain.


i can't possibly think of what to change on the exterior, maybe more aggressive headlights

They'd be nuts not to make it match the edgy look of the current lineup (RX-8, Mazda 6, Mazda 3). If you kept the styling of that five-year-old facelift, you'd have a car that still looked, well, five years old. Good, certainly, but five years old.

Aggressive headlights would be a start. An updated grille - still in chrome, but more defined like the 6 - would be next. Then square off the trunk lid a bit - just a hint, really - with new clear-lens taillights and a nice twin-pipe exhaust sticking out under the bumper.

We'd all want it rear-drive-based - we would, right? It should carry at least a 3.2-liter DOHC V6 of 250-275hp or so and be a little bit larger in size, mostly in the rear seat area. (Refer to the Volvo S80 or Ford Five Hundred for a good size comparison.)

quite frankly I think if the millenia had stayed in production it would look exactly, or near the new TL.

now a 2000 design with a slightly larger grill, more interior upgrades, gps, factory xenons, leds, sports packages, and of course, 255hp up to 320hp optional would be perfect.

latino, I'm basically holding out for it, Im semi in the market for a car, and although the new TL is nice, due to moral concern I could never drive 1. an 02 m3 would be sweet, but the interior is horribly styled and uncomftable, the g35 is sweet, but straight on from the front looks ugly as **** with those headlights, plus there everywhere, the SS4 just doesn't do it for me, the new 3 seris is just a *****, and my dad would smack me if I got any c class benz...plkus they just look way to small. So im pretty much stuck
