Why so many 93's for sale and so little 94-95's ???
I'm in the market for an FD and noticed an overwhelming number of 93's for sale but not that many 94's and hardly ever any 95's...anyone have any insight into this? Is it because 93s had more problems than 94-95? Or is it just because the owners of the 94-95 cars are unwilling to let go of their cars?

ENTIRE 1993 YEAR TOTAL -----------------------------> 9,976
ENTIRE 1994 YEAR TOTAL -----------------------------> 3,403
ENTIRE 1995 YEAR TOTAL -------------------------------> 500
That should pretty well explain it right there.

I might add that on the later models Mazda did fix some minor problem spots often experinced by owners of the eariler years, but the basic car remained identical.
The changes were mostly things like the quality of interior paint, radiator cooling-fan control circuit, R134a for the A/C, etc. Because of this some would say that at the limit a '94 is a little bit better than a '93, and the '95 a little bit better than the '94.

^ Bingo!
First reason is obviously due to the higher production numbers. Second reason is because the later model cars ARE more desireable, generally speaking, and thus not sold too often.
Or so it seems to me.

wow I had no idea only 500 of the 95 models were imported into the US...I don't even consider 9,976 for 93s a lot in terms of production...FDs are rare cars indeed!
But all of the minor stuff that were improved in 94-95 can be easily changed for a 93 model if I cannot find a 94-95 right? Sorry for the questions but I'm still learning about these cars. My dad had a 1987 FC non turbo that I never really cared much for cuz I was too young (9 y/o) at the time to appreciate what we had but that car's long gone. Always had a thing for the FDs growing up, however, and didn't really start looking into them until now since I have the money.

I hope Mazda isn't an *** like some other car companies that refuse to honor the recall cuz they claim your car is too old even though by law they MUST do it regardless of the year.
