2024-02-02 08:34 | carcrasher88 wrote Easiest way to identify the facelift is the grille, as the area where the forward safety equipment sensors are located...stick out like a sore thumb. Not sure what they were thinking when they designed that part of the facelift. I don’t really know what you’re referring to. From the official pics Mazda has shared, there is no noticeable difference in the grille area. |

2024-01-13 15:06 | The Roadster got a very slight facelift, with full LED head and taillights. It's very minor and hard to find good pics for, so I won't make a separate page for it. |

2021-05-03 21:58 | I can't do separate pages due to a lack of pictures, but the taillights on this page were only for the conventional engine Capella. The taillights on the coupé page are those for the rotary engine Capella. |

2020-07-31 10:12 | Well, apparently it has been announced that this car will go on sale in Japan this Fall, but as a mild hybrid. The electric version is still scheduled for 2021. |

I haven't found any Japanese sources either that say it will be released this Fall, and earlier it was predicted to go on sale in 2021 in Japan. |

2020-01-12 22:46 | Unfortunately I can't find pictures with better angles. This car is a prototype for the Cosmo Sport, and it is either shelved at Mazda's headquarters, or no longer exists. It's not displayed in their museum in Hiroshima. |

2019-09-30 06:44 | CeilingHamster wrote Are we sure that the 2.0 is less powerful than the 1.3? (I assume thats litres) It’s correct, the 1.1 and 1.3 are rotary engines. Those generally have a very small displacement, but are more powerful than a much bigger conventional engine. |

2018-12-11 09:40 | Also Primera's and Accord's are different for Japanese market, but Opel and Vauxhall cars are made for BTCC and then bought by racers in Japan. |
| Mark0
2018-12-11 09:37 | They had slightly different specs, like dual exhaust, aero, but at base cars were the same. That's the reason how Anthony Reid raced BTCC spec Primera at 1996 JTCC at Fuji. |

2018-12-11 09:31 | Mark0 wrote Great job with old ST cars. Are you planning to add more of them? Also just a note, when you add them, don't put JTCC or BTCC, since cars were made to ST rules. Yes, I'm planning to. Unfortunately, some of ST series such as JTCC and BTCC had different specs back then. I'm planning to add the Vauxhall Cavalier JTCC (I'm not sure if Vauxhall Cavalier is the same as Vauxhall Cavalier JTCC) and Opel Vectra JTCC. |

 |  Mr. Avanzato 2018-08-25 18:04 | Desscythe17 wrote I doubt it was exactly 10,000. Also, the Japanese wikipedia doesn't have a source for this number so I'm not sure how correct it is. I would also say less than 10,000 were made from what I have seen. |

2018-08-25 13:09 | Mr. Avanzato wrote 10,000 were made, more than the successor in the Japanese market but most Etudes ended up being imported into New Zealand or scrapped.

2016-03-05 15:01 | The 2-door Cosmo initially only got the new taillights when the 4-door was facelifted, but one year later it also got the quad headlights for all trim levels, except for the GT. |

2015-10-11 23:53 | After more than 10 years, the Verisa is finally out of production. It's strange how a car that shared a lot of parts with Fords of the mid-2000s was still in production between all those new Mazdas. -- Last edit: 2015-10-11 23:55:00 |

2015-10-04 17:23 | carcrasher88 wrote Shouldn't this technically be of Australian origin, as it's literally just a Holden Premier with a rotary engine and Mazda badging? I changed it, but I think it's difficult to say its of Australian origin when it has a rotary engine and Mazda transmission. More cars like this have that problem I feel. |
