These renderings of the redesigned 2010 Mazda3 were posted in a thread over on carspyshots.net under the auspice of being toy renderings, but our colleagues from Autoblog Spanish did some digging and discovered that Mazda actually owns these images, not some Japanese toy manufacturer. Thus, it's more likely that these are actual renderings of the real, full-scale 2010 Mazda3. Of course, we could all be wrong and these renderings may have been made by a kid in his mother's basement, as the perspective and scale seems off in some areas. Then again, the design they show, which takes a few styling cues from the new <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/Mazda6/">Mazda6</a> and refreshed <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/RX8/">RX-8</a>, is right in line with what we're expecting. <em>Thanks for the tip, Galvin!<br /></em><br /><div class="postgallery"><p><s trong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2010-mazda3-renderings/">2010 Mazda3 Renderings</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2010-mazda3-renderings/968808/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/08/000974795_0001_1_source_t humbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2010-mazda3-renderings/968807/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/08/000974795_0001_2_source_t humbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2010-mazda3-renderings/968805/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/08/000974795_0001_3_source_t humbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2010-mazda3-renderings/968804/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/08/000974795_0001_4_source_t humbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2010-mazda3-renderings/968809/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/08/000974795_0001_5_source_t humbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><br />[Source: <a href="http://carspyshots.net/showthread.php?t=1332&pag e=26">Carspyshots.net</a>]<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href=http://carspyshots.net/showthread.php?t=1332&pag e=26>Read</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/08/11/2010-mazda3-revealed-by-a-toy-not-really-but-kind-of/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/forward/1280647/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a> | <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/08/11/2010-mazda3-revealed-by-a-toy-not-really-but-kind-of/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p><hr />
