new turbocharged MAZDASPEED MX-5, the recently face-lifted MPV and an updated

"This has to be our best collection of cars ever," said Stephen Odell,
Mazda's Senior Managing Executive Officer in charge of Global Marketing, Sales
and Customer Service, commenting on the collection of concept and production
models at the annual Detroit show. "We've committed ourselves to getting our
business stronger in North America. From MPV to RX-8, we've got the right
products -- these cars represent the strongest showroom in Mazda's history --
and we are now aggressively addressing our distribution issues in this key
market."
Mazda MX-Micro Sport Concept
The four-cylinder, six-speed MX-Micro Sport concept is the company's
