Default Some Cars I saw Today that I never even knew existed.

For some reason I saw these cars for the first time today and never before in my life. I never knew that they even existed. I didnt have pics but here are the cars. Are these scarce cars or am I just not paying attention?

Mazda 323 (Newer Model than what I usually see)



Nissan Pulsar NX Sportback

awd turbo? lol

There are a lot of Mazda 323 Astinas running around here (they're FWD, not 4WD). Some of them have swapped in BP-T engines from japan (1800cc DOHC 16v turbo) and are scary fast.

EDIT: Added pics of an old BP-T powered Astina that I found on my computer..









I don't really see them that much anymore though. Looks like Hondas have dominated the world, as it seems

I believe the Astinas were not sold here, well from what a friend told me the closes thing to an Astina is the Mazda protege 5.

I think in Europe, Asia, and Australia have Astinas.

here's a link I used to go to, http://www.astinagt.com

There's a guy at my school that has this car. We don't know whether to call it a wagon, a hatchback or a truck.

the car posted first in this topic seems Dutch to me.
for some reason I recognised it's 'style'.
licenseplate's color matches too.

this just is a Mazda 323 Fastback is it was sold here before being replaced by the Mazda a short time ago.
