Earlier today, Josh Byrnes sent me an interesting email pointing me towards to a story from Car Advice titled "Mazda 3 rendering sparks debate", in which there was a picture of the next generation Mazda3. The image, credited to Mazda North America, was from Bank of America Merrill Lynch's annual "Car Wars" analysis, which according to a CNN Money report, is "Published each May for some two decades" and "provides a glimpse into the future of the U.S. auto business."

Carscoops' 2015 Mazda3 Rendering Fools Motor Trend, Autoweek and Automobile Magazine
Earlier today, Josh Byrnes sent me an interesting email pointing me towards to a story from Car Advice titled "Mazda 3 rendering sparks debate", in which there was a picture of the next generation Mazda3. The image, credited to Mazda North America, was from Bank of America Merrill Lynch's annual "Car Wars" analysis, which according to a CNN Money report, is "Published each May for some two decades" and "provides a glimpse into the future of the U.S. auto business."
