Its the Mazda 3 you want but cant have.
As the saying goes "You always want, what you can't have". Well, they’re right, cause I really want this Mazda 3.
The Mazada 3 pictured above isn't your typical Mazda 3. This is the Mazada3 TCR.
The Mazda3 TCR packs 350 HP & 361ft-lbs of torque, revs to 7,000rpm, has a 6-speed sequential gearbox and a top speed of 150mph. Oh and it looks sexy as F*$%K.
The TCR started its life as a typical Mazda 3 hatch, but all the unnecessary parts were removed and race bits were added. A huge spoiler in the rear for some downforce, wider fender flares to fit the 18-inch wheels wrapped in Michelins. Up front theres a huge splitter designed to cut through the air, an exhaust that exits in the middle of the rear end and Bilsteins or Ohlins for its dampening duties.
The Mazda3 TCR will take part in the 2020 IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge and is scheduled debut with the 4-hour Endurance Challenge at Daytona on January 26.
We wish the Mazda3 TCR the best of luck during its debut race, but most of all we wish Mazda would bring something like this to the market, because there's nothing sexier than a hot hatchback.
