2010 Mazda 3 - What We Know So Far

!±8± 2010 Mazda 3 - What We Know So Far

The 2010 Mazda 3 is no stranger to the automotive press with dozens of spy shots popping up over the past few months and speculative renderings coming from all around the world. Because the Mazda 3 is Mazda's top selling vehicle in the U.S. it's not hard to see why it is drawing in so much excitement surrounding its unveiling at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November. The redesign couldn't come up at a better time for Mazda when, even in the midst of a languishing economy, the Mazda 3 continues to be a hot seller among the ultra competitive compact car segment against the likes of the newly revised Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla. Although nothing is set in stone (read: confirmed by Mazda) yet we have created a list of what to expect when the Mazda 3 is officially unveiled by Mazda: First, the current 2.3 liter motor will be swapped out in favor of Mazda's 2.5 liter currently in the 2009 Mazda6. This will bring power up to around 170 hp, from the current 150-156 hp of the Mazda 3 s-line and will offer both a six speed manual transmission and a five speed sport automatic transmission. The Mazda 3 i-line is expected to carryover its 2.0 liter engine and transmission options.

When it comes to design the 2010 Mazda 3 can best be described as evolutionary with a similar overall body profile and a few changes around the front and back. From the spy shots we can see styling cues borrowed from the new Mazda6 and up front, with flared wheel arches and an upwardly sculpted front bumper reminiscent of the recent Mazdaspeed RX-8 concept car. Following the Mazda6's march towards luxury car dominance, the upcoming Mazda 3 has been spotted with previously unseen luxury amenities in the compact car segment like integrated mirror turn signals, Mazda's advanced keyless entry system with push button start, mp3 hard drive, and numerous steering wheel based controls.

These new features are in addition to the current Mazda 3's options including HID headlights, auto rain sensing wipers, auto on/off headlights, Bose sound system with aux input, lighted vanities, auto down driver's window, one-touch moonroof and power seat controls. None of the new features listed above are set in stone (they were observed on what appeared to be a near final prototype model during testing) it is very likely that the features will remain and be available on the final retail product. The stage is set and Mazda will officially reveal the 2010 Mazda 3's design at the Los Angeles Auto Show which runs between November 17th and 26th.

!±8± Choosing The Best Tankless Water Heater For Your Home

The concept behind making upgrades to your home water heating system is logical, but only if you have done your research first. Otherwise you can end up with many more problems than solutions. Tankless water heater systems are a great option for ensuring you always have plenty of hot water when you need it. Make sure you take the time to explore the various models of tankless water heaters that are available before you commit to purchasing one.

Many consumers don't realize that all tankless water systems are not the same. Many manufacturers offer them in a variety of models featuring variations. It is essential that them model you select is right for your home. There are different levels of use that need to be taken into consideration. If your household consumes a great deal of hot water and needs it from more than one outlet at a time then don't purchase a standard tankless water heater. These only allow you hot water from one outlet at a time. However, these models are among the least expensive.

If your home is like mine, it is common for two showers to be going at the same time. For this, a more advanced model of tankless water heater is needed. However, most people find the added expense to be well worth the convenience. Regardless of the type of tankless hot water system you decide on, make sure it meets the needs of your household. If you don't then you will have many problems and it won't be worth upgrading from the standard tank water heater system you already have in place.
