nice new miata





Sadly the museum is inside the factory, so you cannot visit it at your own leisure, and we were rushed through it. I had to take pictures of the displays to read them later, kind of sad. I hope they find a way to fix this later.



the original miata, I had the second generation of this


The RX7 gen2 was a beautiful car




Mazda is of course famous for using rotary motors in several of their cars


I didn't know about lock up automatic transmission


Then, we got a tour of the assembly line, where as usual no pictures were allowed, and on the way out, we got to see a few technology demo cars:


dual fuel: hydrogen and gasoline, interesting...

dual fuel system

hydrogen RX8, cool :)





And after 90m, the tour was over. It was a nice visit, even if (again) it was a shame that the museum tour was rushed due to being part of the guided tour where you wouldn't wonder off or stay longer:
