I drove the THIRD Mazda brought into the USA.....according to the Mazda rep who was courting my friends father who had a few dealerships.
It cranked.....well, maybe not "cranked"....you know.
I remember everyone else driving the thing MUCH FASTER than I ever would on the local streets.
I also remember the monstrous billow of heat which accompanied opening the door to get out.
There was an Amphicar parked in Hackensack for years and my father said we was going to get one to cross the river to work.
In 1962 he went to fetch a new car....and came home with a Pontiac Catalina 4 door.
I was crushed, disillusioned and that's why I'm an axe murderer today.
