Own every Mazda.
Mazda comes from Hiroshima. The company was founded in 1920 to work cork. It built three-wheeled trucks from 1931 under Jujiro Matsuda. It long bet on the Wankel rotary engine. In 1991 a Mazda won the Le Mans 24 Hours. That was a first for a Japanese maker.

Mazda
1998–2005 · Inline-4
The pop-up headlamps had to go: they no longer passed pedestrian safety tests. This second MX-5 is also the only one sold with a factory turbo, the Mazdaspeed. A limited edition with a six-speed gearbox marked the tenth anniversary in 1999 and owners nicknamed it '10AE'.

Mazda
1989–present
'Jinba ittai', unity of horse and rider, was the credo behind the MX-5. It debuted at the 1989 Chicago Auto Show, when small roadsters had almost vanished; Mazda built its millionth on 22 April 2016, and it is the best-selling two-seat convertible sports car in history.
