Mazda Collection

I have just come back from a 'boys' trip to the USA which included Austin GP, SEMA, cars and coffee and on the day we flew out a visit to Mazda USA

I have to say that it was the coolest car experience I have ever had. We were led down a few non descript halls and stairways to the garage and walk into a dark basement area and as the lights flickered into life I was a bit speechless.

Will let photos do the talking but a couple of cars that don't necessarily seem anything amazing but are include chassis #14(Mariner Blue) #17 (red) the 500,000th (evo gold) the 700,000th (velocity red Mazdapseed)

And to see them in as they rolled off the line condition...

I'm a bit weird that way.
But to see how the seat cloth looked new, the carpets, original paint finish and panel alignment. It's something you just won't see on even the best kept road drĂ­ven example...
