Sucks to be Mazda at this point in time. Nice to see them being up front and dealing with the situation in a professional manner though.

Ford doesn't run mazda. They own a percentage of shares. The RX8 has nothing to do with Ford. Neither does the miata or the current Protege.

I can't believe they are doing a buyback. That could be like a really long test drive in sorts, and then go by something else.
