HIROSHIMA, Japan--Mazda Motor Corporation today announced financial results for the first nine months of fiscal year (FY) 2005 and a revision of the full year forecast for FY2005.

For the first nine months of FY2005, Mazda's worldwide wholesales were 834,000 units, up 3 percent compared to the same period last year. Sales revenues increased 4 percent year-on-year to 2.09 trillion yen reflecting strong global demand for the Mazda3 and Mazda5.

Operating profit for the year-to-date period was 83.7 billion yen, a year-on-year increase of 31 percent, while net income was 41.3 billion yen, up 58 percent over FY2005.

The improved operating results reflect higher revenues, more favorable exchange rates and further cost reductions.

Mazda projects a 4 percent rise in global wholesales to 1.15 million units and a 7 percent increase in global revenues to 2.89 trillion yen in FY 2005. Full-year operating profit is expected to climb 42 percent to 118 billion yen, while net income is forecast to grow by 31 percent to 60 billion yen.
"Our results for the first nine months put us on track to achieve record profit levels for a second consecutive year", said Gideon Wolthers, Mazda's Representative Director and Chief Financial Officer. "Our new MPV and CX-7 models will also assist in building a solid foundation for growth under Mazda Momentum, our mid-term plan."

It's time you put some effort into the RX8 and THEN start preparing the next Mazda6.

Do you know any details about it? Like...will it have (well for the Mazda6 in general) Ford's new 3.5L 250HP V6?

Regarding the MS6, will it have the same engine?

Sorry Zoom, you probably don't know the answer to these questions but I thought I'd ask. So then...Mazda is left with NO OTHER car to work on....GOSH, get to the RX8 already DANG IT!
