Acutally, this topic sparked an interest for me.. I went searching on the net after reading this initially and found this comprehensive page.. Could be worth a bit of a look.. 1990 Mazda Cosmo
ENJOY  Some nice pics and good information..AP

Oh for a JC,
This is what I have to be content with Their is too much electronic chicanery to convert a JC to a five cog with no speed limiters.

Oh.. I just found a little article that featured the concept "Cosmo Sport" that is modelled on the original Cosmo 110s.. very nice machine. I would like one of these for an "old-skool" cool feel.. BTW.. i know that it has MX5 floorplan and underpinnings.. similar panels too [see doors]

Mazda did build a very small number of 20B manual 929 sedans - I expect they were built by the Skunk works mob for a bit of fun to challenge M5 BMWs etc.
An Aussie journalist of there in the early 90's drive one... Apparently breaking traction in 3rd wasn't a problem  A.

Only two of the 20B 929s were ever registered in Australia, a friend of mine once worked for Mazda in Sydney and got to drive one for an evening :mrgreen:
Gotta luv those thruster tail lights, personaly I'd go with rims with less bling
