This is my repost from mazworld:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First things first
images are © Mazda Corporation
Information used is from Mazda Australia website, Internet Research and this Forum
Ok now thats out of the way.
i wanted to create a definitive model line up for our cars, plus Mazda Australia decided to hide the Old Models Page (Don't know about the rest of the world but Mazda in Australia does not really appreciate you as a customer/owner of their product unless its a current Model that you own )
Anyway, this is information i collected, we need to add as much as we can for different markets
what i would like, is to replace the images with actual photos of original as possible cars, also break up information for different markets (this is pretty much Australia only) so any info you guys have shoot it to me and i will edit posts
