I don't know if its still true.
But Mazda is not sure if they will be importing the new Mazda2 to the USA (and hence us) because of low demand in the USA.

"Last we heard, though, Mazda might keep the next 2 out of the US due to slow sales."

But then again they are building that Mexico plant.

I can't see them keeping it out of the Canadian market. The next version will be co-developed with Toyota (or Toyota will just use the Mazda bones) for use with the next Yaris.

We'll see, though!

Just kidding, I think all sub-compact tend to attract more females.  I can guarantee that the female that passes me daily with her blue Versa Note is not getting good fuel economy,holy shite she boogies,  I wonder if she's had a bitching session with the service manager yet ;D
