Mazda reports 46 percent jump in quarterly profit By YURI KAGEYAMA ASSOCIATED PRESS   Mazda, one of the few bright spots lately in the Ford family of automakers, reported a 46 percent jump in profit for the latest quarter on Thursday as Japan’s fifth-largest automaker heads toward a record profit for the sixth straight year.   Mazda Motor Corp., 33.9 percent owned by Ford Motor Co., recorded 14.9 billion yen ($123.3 million) in net profit for the three months through December, up from 10.2 billion yen the same period a year earlier.   Demand was strong in the U.S. for the Mazda CX-7 sport utility vehicle, Mazda5 family car and MX-5 Miata sportscar, the company said in a release.

Replying to: nmk (Feb 08, 2007 6:09 pm) Not to rain on anyone's parade here, but just where are these "U.S. sales" for the CX-7 supposed to be? I've barely seen a handful of CX-7's on the road in the Tampa Bay Area, and I mean this literally. I've been quite surprised by this. I really expected to see more of these cars on the road in my town than what I've seen so far. Replies to this message: cxrabbit (Feb 08, 2007 10:48 pm) carlitos92 (Feb 09, 2007 4:54 am)

Replying to: maximafan (Feb 08, 2007 9:51 pm) Same here in NY... I never see ANY on the road. Service Manager at my dealership today said this is a real "sleeper" -- and they expected to sell more.

Replying to: maximafan (Feb 08, 2007 9:51 pm) Ah! But they didn't say "We are selling XX,XXX CX-7's." They just said "demand was high." Maybe that's what happens when you have to write off the few thousand cars that got splashed in the Pacific...
#5 of 7 where are the CX-7's by nmk Feb 09, 2007 (6:45 am)
All too true. I have seen two in New Zealand, one in Catskill, NY, one in Teaneck, NJ and one on the NY State Thruway.   BTW, my CEL went on for the first time this morning. It has been in the teens and twenties for the past week here. HMmmm, wonder if it is the temp?   Darth Vader Grey AWD w/Tech Package Replies to this message: maltb (Feb 09, 2007 9:39 am)

Replying to: nmk (Feb 09, 2007 6:45 am) As with many Mazdas, the CX-7 got off to slow start but it's nearly a year on the market and sales continue to climb. Losing a couple thousand when dealers are have aging inventory was likely a blessing in disguise.
