How many convertibles still out there? - Page 3

Anybody have any idea how many are still on the road? Wikipedia claims 'Mazda exported approximately five thousand convertibles to the United States in 1988 and fewer in each of the next three model years'. No idea where their info is from.

How many members of this forum have one?

As I'm leaning more to the purist mentality in a rebuild, and as I'm the original owner, I'm just curious. I never knew there were so few to begin with. Besides, I'm past the point of taking any of you on in a speed run. I did, however, win one trophy for fastest time in the Spring of 1990 at a 'Mazda owner's Tech & Run' weekend in Westchster County, NY.

And, yes, I was the ONLY 'vert' there, as I recollect. I was placed into the NA class as a result.
