		The Mazda Familia is Mazda's subcompact/compact car family, also known as the Mazda 323 in Europe, North America, New Zealand and Australia, and later known as the Mazda GLC then Mazda Protegé in North America, produced in Japan between 1976 and 2003.
		It was sold as the Mazda 808 in some export markets such as New Zealand and Australia and Mazda 818 in many others (presumably due to the usage of numbers with a middle zero by Peugeot for its automotive models).
		The top spec Mazda Neo was fitted with a DOHC 1800 cc BP engine which produced around 100kw, this was the same engine fitted to the base model Mazda Lantis.

		Mazda itself does not even have its own mid-size engine (3-some liters) as the current 3.0L in the Mazda6 and MPV is just a Ford Duratec 30.
		Mazda is only able to use a mid-size engine in North America because it is "borrowing" from Ford but in other parts of the world, Ford is not able to supply Mazda with the 3.0L V6 and Mazda does not haf its own.
		For Mazda to even start thinking about a 9, they would first haf to have a 3.0L available in their 6's thoughout the world, which is what they are trying to do.

	Mazda 929 Information
		The first Mazda 929 was introduced in 1973 to replace the piston-powered Mazda Luce, which had become the rotary RX-4.
		It was a large front-engine rear-wheel drive sedan on the new HB platform with the Mazda Cosmo.
		When Mazda revised the same model for the 1990-1991 period, the engine was upgraded to a Double Overhead Cam type with 24 valves, slightly increasing fuel economy, performance and reliability.

		Mazda engineers were particularly helpful in the area of ride and handling, according to Tanasawa.
		GM calls the Oldsmobile O4 a "dramatic reinterpretation of an Opel platform." Powering it is Opel's 1.8-L Ecotech, a turbocharged four-cylinder with 16 valves.

		The newest Mazda embodies the design direction presented in the Mazda MX Sportif concept showcased at the Geneva auto show in March 2003.
		Mazda hopes to sell about 250,000 of the Japanese-built Mazda3s worldwide, 70,000 units in the U.S., roughly the same as the Protege family, with the four-door expected to account for two-thirds of total sales.

	Mazda Protege5 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Mazda is trying to create a fetching new feeling, by building more cars like this and letting people know it.
		Mazda is trying to not call the Protege5 a wagon without defying reality, which takes a bit of marketing and semantic tightrope-walking.
		Mazda measures at a height level with the top of the rear seats, as per EPA guidelines; some manufactures measure to the ceiling, making specs sometimes skewed.

		Mazda says the CX-9's functional competitors are the eight-seat Honda Pilot LX and the seven-seat Toyota Highlander V6, yet it also wishes to invoke the passionate spirit of vehicles like the turbocharged Acura RDX.
		Mazda has gone to some lengths to make the CX-9 fun to drive, and it shows in its enthusiasm for the road.

	Mazda 626GE History
		Mazda's system was electronic and more complex than the 4WS system introduced by Honda on the 1988 Prelude; these two marked the first 4WS systems for the American market.
		Mazda's new 4-cylinder is a much-improved 2.3 L 4 with 160 hp (119 kW); the V6 is a 3.0 L, 220 hp unit based on Ford's Duratec engine block, but with completely reworked cylinders and valvetrain components.
		Mazda was the last of the Japanese to increase its entry to "midsize" status; the 6 is still the smallest (and most agile) of the bunch.

		Redesigned on current platform, rather than adopt the European C1 platform used by the Mazda 3 and Volvo S40/V50.
		Tentatively set to make its debut in mid-2008, the MLK is said to be based on an AWD version of the next-generation C-Class platform, which means 230-horsepower, 3.0-liter and 270-horsepower, 3.5-liter V-6 engines for U.S. buyers and the possibility of a V-8-powered AMG version later in the vehicle's lifecycle.
		Likely based on rear-drive platform shared with VW for a model to fit between the Passat and Phaeton.

	Previously owned a Ford Probe? - Mazda6 / Atenza
		When I saw this thread, I figured you guys were talking about the 1st gen Probes which were based on a Mazda platform and represented one of the first times that an American manufacturer sold a Japanese-based car but put their own body on the chassis.
		Mazda's engineers weren't happy, but it was approved, and the car was re-engineered to fit the new design.
		The third generation Probe was to be built on the same platform as the Ford Contour and Mercury Mystique as the earlier generation Probes were built on the Mazda MX-6 and 626 platform.

		Mazda's 626 is a perennial also-ran that just never seems to get the amount of attention it deserves.
		Mazda's 626 offers a stiff chassis and well-tuned suspension that gives it a sure-footed feel that'll encourage you to press down the accelerator pedal just a wee bit harder as you exit a tight corner.
		The Mazda 626 is built on a highly rigid chassis, which provides a platform capable of delivering excellent handling and a smooth ride quality.

	List of Mazda platforms - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The company's platforms form the 5th and 6th characters of the VIN on post-1981 vehicles.
		The first character is a letter representing the platform family, while the second is a sequential letter for the revision of the platform.
		Since many Mazdas are built at Ford plants in the United States, these vehicles do not follow the above naming scheme.

		The Mazda also utilizes a "tumble-under" third-row seat, similar to that offered in the Honda Odyssey, as well as a tailgate function that lets the rear seat tilt backward for comfortable, reverse-facing lounging amid open-air activities.
		Even more amazing is how Mazda managed to create an automatic that lumbers from first to second gear, yet bangs when going from second to third.
		Mazda calls it "smart-sized" and refers to the interior design as "OptiSpace." We have to give Mazda credit for accomplishing both goals as well as it did.

		I saw the Mazda 6 recently in a motor show and was impressed by its "traditional" styling.

		You know the 3 is derived from the next generation Ford Focus platform, sharing the same control-blade (multi-link) rear suspensions, in contrast to rivals' torsion-beam axle.
		It is the same engine as that found in Mazda 6, complete with VVT, variable intake and balance-shaft to dampen vibration.
		Mazda said it "uses a FWD layout to maximize the inherent agile handling characteristics of its lightweight and compact body", which I guess nobody understand.

		Mazda enjoys almost twice the market share here as it has in the rest of the world and its products routinely win best-in-class recognition in the annual Canadian Car of the Year awards run by the Automobile Journalists Association of Canada.
		Mazda refers to it as an MAV (Multi-Activity Vehicle) and while I deplore yet another acronym, it's hard to argue with that tag, although crossover might also suit.
		The Mazda5 is based on the same Mazda-developed platform that serves as the base for the Volvo S40 and V50, some European Ford products and one of Canada's favourite cars, the Mazda3.
