          that should read consumer not producer
          It's both the biggest consumer and producer.
          I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                It's an awesome car.

                Though the engine is bigger here, 2.3L w/ 160hp in the GT trim I have, the euro version has a 2.0L as the biggest w/ 148hp (base GS model here).

                    I don't consider 2.3L to be a big engine. I consider it moderate.

                    4L Jeeps...those are big engines. And they're like 40 more hp than what I have. Gotta love American engineering.

                      Actually, 2.3L for a four banger is pretty big - needlessly big, I'd say. I'm rather surprised Mazda would use such an engine - maybe something developed for their Ford parent?

                      Still, I quite like the new Mazda 3's. Good entry level car.

                        It's the same engine that will be used in the new european Ford Focus (not the North American crap), and in Volvo's new S40. It's entirely Mazda-designed, though.

                          Still puts it near the top end of 4 cylinder engine sizes, which surprises me somewhat.

                          And Volvo must be strapping a turbocharger on it, I'm guessing. The current S40 has a 1.9L turbo that puts out 170 hp. I don't think they'll be putting in a less powerful engine into the new one.

                            Yeah, the Volvo will have a turbo. The same engine as the upcoming Mazdaspeed 3.

                              Americans would have to figure out what the heck a km and litre was first.

                                I'm getting a car this summer -- possibly a 2003 Honda Civic hybrid. That should help alleviate my costs for gasoline.
