I don’t know about a lead but here are a few movies/shows that car may have been in.

Beautiful car. Congratulations to her. That whole thing sucks.

Sounds like that was probably fake.

Someone once said that the 2nd gen Mazda3 does have a smiling face, but it’s more of a “I’m going to assault you when you pass out” smile. Pretty dark, but it’s all I see when I look at them now.

In too late but I have two.

If you don’t understand why ‘GLB’ is such a terrible name, then you just don’t get it and you’re being insincere, unserious, and... and... something else.

I remember when this came out and what a swell of pride I had for the US taking the fight to the world!

I see you, car photographer.

I remember similar discussions of design and customer preference after 9/11, when people were looking for a sense of safety and security in their lives. More people went to SUVs and larger trucks, and even cars picked up the gunslit window design (most famously the Dodge Magnum/Chrysler 300) that suggested safety from…

I’m guessing the fuel tank is very small for this.

Other colors are $99!

I wonder if there’s a difference between wearing tires out naturally on the road (which includes hundreds of heat cycles) and shaving them down. I bet the heat cycled ones don’t grip as well as shaved.

Anytime I see the phrase “up to”, I read it as “no more than”. It means the same thing.

I live 5 minutes from this place. It’s an old shopping mall attached to a Holiday Inn that was bought and repurposed as this auto consignment shop. One of the best, most eclectic car shows you’ll ever see and worth a trip if you’re not too far. Something for everyone. Everything from 38 Fords to the odd Ferrari or…

Thusly? 

Second Wow, I never realized that. Your photo definitely does look better. I assume they did that to make trunk more accessible? I can’t imagine why else they would have.
