The Mazda 3 2.5T looks very nice and seems like a great car. Too bad about no MT.

Speaking off, I was recalling JST's troubles with the R's clutch when I came across some comments suggesting the GTI's clutch is kind of weak. I'm very easy on my clutches but my wife isn't. No burnouts or anything, just a more average clutch use. But given my commute is mostly hwy, I think we'll be ok... until the kids learn to drive stick.
