But Booth said he was confident that profits would keep growing in coming years, driven by a lineup of attractive new models such as the Mazda6/Atenza and the soon-to-be launched RX-8 coupe, which he called "the most exciting car in the world."
Fairly bold claim. Add some forced induction and then we'd be talking

I watched C&D on TV Sunday, they said the only complaint they had was like the s2000, you have to rev the **** out of it to get anywhere. 248hp and 152ft/lbs I think they said. They said flooring it in sixth gear around 3k they had to look at the tach to see if they were accelerating They still loved it though, and they did a few sweet-*** drifts in it. I was suprised at fully loaded it's juuuust over 30k. Not bad.
