This month Mazda Canada anticipates recording the sale of their 1,000,000th registered car in Canada. The purchaser or leaser of this vehicle will be astounded to learn that they will get their money back and receive the car free of charge. A ceremony will take place in the selling dealership to appropriately commemorate this landmark.

"I am thrilled that Canadians love Mazdas," says Mike Bencimol, President of Mazda Canada Inc. "We, at Mazda, are proud that our cars have become part of the Canadian landscape over the last year 40 years." Canada's head office in Scarborough gathers purchase information electronically from every dealership and will know where the millionth car has been sold within a day.

Based on preliminary estimates, it is believed the vehicle will be sold in the last week of September.

September will mark the 50th consecutive month of year-over-year growth and, based upon current sales trends, 2002 will end up another record year for Mazda Canada.
