	Mazda Cosmo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		All were GT cars, with the first proving a successful launch for the Mazda Wankel engine and acting as a halo vehicle for the new Mazda brand.
		It was known as the Cosmo AP in Japan, and sold internationally as the Mazda RX-5, though in some export markets its piston powered counterpart was called the Mazda 121 (a name later applied to Mazda's subcompact model).
		The Cosmo was Mazda's 'large' compact rotary coupe and based on the Mazda RX-4 floorpan and mechanics, but slightly heavier due to body design and more luxurious appointments, including an 5-link rear suspension and rear disc brakes.

	Mazda Wankel engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		All Mazda Wankel "rotary" engines are essentially a single family - they all derive from the first Wankel experiments in the early 1960s (Wankel was a German Engineer).
		The most prominent 4-rotor engine from Mazda was used exclusively for various Mazda-built GT cars (including the 767 and 787B) in replacement of the older 13J.
		Mazda was fully committed to the Wankel engine just as the energy crisis of the 1970s struck.

		The COSMO SPORTS, or as it was known in the few countries it was exported as the MAZDA 110S was officially launched on May 30, 1967.
		The first Cosmo prototypes were produced by August 1963, and in October 1963 the head of Mazda, Tsuneji Matsuda drove the prototype (known as "project L402A") to the Tokyo Motor Show.
		The newer version of the Cosmo was slightly updated, with a 5 speed gearbox, power assisted brakes and optional air conditioning (which fitted behind the seats on the rear parcel shelf), and the wheel base was lengthened by some 150mm, which tended to make the car look more balanced.

	DMRH - Special Vehicles (HB Series)
		Mazda Australia took note of all this going on but still refused to allow the rotary option, so in late 85 they offered the 929 with a turbo 2 Lt. option.
		Due to their ignorance, Mazda Australia had allowed the HB 929’s “slug” reputation to be fully cemented.
		On the Japanese domestic front, Mazda centralized the HB range by removing the sedan version, the 13B RE-SI plus the 12A SPI from the line up in 86 after the new HC series arrived with it’s 13B turbo option (same as the series IV RX-7).

	Mazda Cosmo - Unique Cars Magazine
		In twin-rotor 13B form, the Eunos Cosmo generated 172kW with 294Nm of usable torque; however, this was not the engine which would drag status-seeking Japanese out of their SEC Mercedes or 8-Series BMWs.
		Cosmos are at present in reasonably short supply, but with three compliance holders each authorised to import 25 units, numbers are expected to swell during the coming couple of years.
		Everything inside the Cosmo is finished in high-quality materials and cars showing low-kilometres but with wear to the seat bolsters or carpets need to be viewed with suspicion.

	Mazda
		The Cosmo is regarded as Mazda's high-tech luxury flagship and was produced by the only company still currently using rotary engines in its production vehicles, with the most famous being the RX7.
		The Mazda 626 series 1 proved to be a durable and reliable car, and was influential in developing Mazda's enviable reputation for quality.
		To remain viable as a company Mazda was forced to concentrate on manufacturing traditional piston driven engines, however the engineers never gave up on their dream of creating a sports car using rotary power, and in 1978 (following 2 years of extensive development code named Project X605), they introduced to the world the fabulous RX-7.

	AutomoBear.com - Mazda Millenia bows out of the Millennium
		and now RX-8, Mazda is going back to providing engaging family transport and, in the latter case, a wonderfully practical and thoroughly Japanese four-door coupe powered by the rotary engine that made Mazda a stand-out in the seventies and eighties.
		The top-of-the-line Mazda was a decidedly unheralded car which never set Mazda's sales figures alight, nor even spurred much passion amongst enthusiasts.
		It was, frankly, not likely to fit into Mazda's goal of doubling its 1.5% (in 2000) market share in the U.S. by the end of the decade.

		Mazda officially rated power at 206 kW, in order to comply with the Japanese limit, but like most Japanese sports cars such as the Nissan Skyline GT-R and the Toyota Supra, the real figure is around 220 plus kW.

		A large part of the reason for the low sales was that the car was never sold much outside of Japan, and there was also the motoring public’s unfamiliarity with the new-fangled rotary engine of course then there was the issue of its interesting looks.
		Like Ford with their recent GT40, Mazda are also going retro with the unveiling of the Cosmo 21 concept at the 2002 Tokyo Auto Salon in January.
		Like the GT40, Mazda were interested in public response before any decision is made as to the car’s future.

	1976 Mazda RX-5 - seth's Mazda "the cosmo"
		For some inexplicable reason, the Cosmo hasnt caught on with American buyers the way one would expect(in its native Japan it is the best-selling car in the sports/luxury class, with average monthly sales in excess of 3500 cars), so it remains a relatively rare sight on U.S highways.
		The vacuum assisted 4 wheel disk brakes could bring the Cosmo to a stop in 157 1/2 ft from 60 mph, which is about average, but there was a notable lack of fade throughout the braking tests.
		Add Mazda's 5 years/75,000 miles warranty on the rotary engined cars and you have what may be one of the best buys in its class, regardless of price.

		The Mazda Cosmo (known to the Japanese market as Cosmo RX-5, which distinguished it from the earlier Cosmo Sport; the Toyo Kogyo in house model designation was X208A) was a luxury coupe with two doors, four seats, and better-than-average performance and styling in-tended to be distinctive.
		Few Cosmos are to be found in salvage yards, though Mazda dealers may have Cosmo-specific parts gathering dust in the nether reaches of the parts department.
