What Does your iPhone and Your New Mazda2 Have in Common?

Skins!!!

Now that I've read about it frankly I'm kind of surprised it took this long to arrive.

Mazda has come out with the new Mazda 2 for 2011 - a small entry level hatchback to introduce it's line to a younger generation.  But they didn't stop there.  These hipper little cars can be accessorized with "unique" skins.  I say unique with eyebrows raised because in this case unique means one of 84 potential options
Owners can choose from one of four themes: three music-based themes (Rock, Pop and Urban) and one performance-inspired theme (Speed). Each Skins design comes in three different sizes (small, medium and large) and seven different colors to match the body colors of the Mazda2, for a total of 84 different decal variations! Depending on the size, the cost is $375, $455 or $595 plus installation.

I remember as a teenager when I admired those of my classmates dressed in outrageous clothes or all in black my father would point out that they all looked the same - this didn't stop them from expressing their "uniqueness" and I suspect it won't stop people from buying Mazda's unique skins. :)  They are pretty.

However, if you're looking for a truly unique look and perhaps have something other than a Mazda 2 - I could recommend looking up the Car Wrap Lady.  Perhaps you could match your car to your iPhone.  Maybe a bejewelled Smart Car???  For some reason that makes me happy.  LOL

For those of you with creative flair - start doodling and until next time . . .

Happy Driving!

  1. You have got me thinking about which design I would go with. Probably something very manly, now flowers for this car guy.

    I think it is about time Mazda came up with a replacement for the 323, this was sorely missing in the product line-up. I look forward to taking this one for a test drive!
