I'm thinking about a trip to America and being a Mazda fanatic besides seeing all the sights and everything, I've heard there are wreacking yards with piles of old mazdas RX2's, RX3's, and RX4's etc and would be keen to get some photos and have a look around. Does anyone know of such a place? what states are these wrecking yards in where is the biggest one?

If you want to see things like that, I'd imagine Japan would have more to offer, and have a lot less space to have to search.

Old Mazdas are pretty rare in the U.S for the most part. Seems like most of the older ones I hear about are in the North Western U.S.

i have NEVER seen anything older than an FB, except for FD3BOOST's REPU. which is no longer around.



anything in the wrecking yards is crash fb's, fc's and fd's. every now and then you will find an fc or fb at a car auction, but it is nothing spectacular.
