in other words ford owns mazda. think about it typically the mazda dealership is next door to the ford dealership or they are both owned by the same family/corp.

Mazda helped design for them the next gen. Focus platform (them and Volvo too I believe) for their Mazda 3, the Focus built on that platform won't be available here for a few years now, only in Europe/overseas. Unlike a lot of other 'import' cars, Mazdas are still actually imported, as they're still built in Japan. The only part of the Mazda lineup that is exclusively Ford is the 2.3L (at least here in North America) is the 2.3L Duratec block in the Mazda 3, just the block, the balance of the ancilliaries and internals are Mazda. Its pretty hard to screw up a piece of solid aluminum. Try not to overgeneralize.
