proving ground for cars... MS6... brand new engine with no advertising. anyways, as much as i dislike Ford, a part of me wants them to do well, maybe because they still own Mazda.

Maybe instead of Zoom-Zoom.. we'll hear a Vroom-Vroom campain.. sorry had to say it.. forgive me 
Well I havent been following mazda's goings corporate wise but if thats true with what ya said Zoom then they are surely recognizing the fact that Mazda did/is doing somethign right in the way they are handling the brand. Something Ford needs to do.
