Mazda has been making a production rotary engine since 1965. the first model year car was 1967. maybe they should make it the 41st anniversary..

**** the paint,the 40th ann. badge, the engine cover, blood red seats and ghey *** blue fog lights.

Mazda - Please stay out of the customizing section of Wal-Mart.

I haven't used the coin storage yet, but my AC blows cold and my brakes don't squeal. Time will tell about the rest. But that's what warranties and service plans are for.
