Win a Car Courtesy of Mazda and Need For Speed Carbon

Mazda has decided to get hooked up with EA's Need for Speed Carbon and will be releasing a car that is inspired by and featured in the new game.  The MAZDASPEED3 can be yours if you enter the contest.

This marks the first time that an automobile manufacturer has designed a car to tie in directly with the release of a video game.  Mazda is partnering with Gamestop and EB stores nationwide to sponsor giveaways and contests, the biggest of which is a tournament in Las Vegas, where the grand prize winner will drive off in a MAZDASPEED3.  For more info on the contest visit mazdaspeed3.com.

Mazda's new car is aimed at "the youngest new-car buyers in the industry".  The fact that the car goes up to 155 miles per hour and is based on a racing game and aimed at the kiddies makes me nervous.  If the Vegas winner smashes up his new SPEED3, I'll take bets on how quickly Jack Thompson shows up.

Need for Speed Carbon will be in stores on November 1st.
