Collectible Classic: 1949-1951 Ford

The car that saved the company.

The American auto industry has run into a ditch, but what many people may not realize is that Ford has been in a similar position before. In 1945, when Henry Ford II finally succeeded in taking control of the company after prying his near-senile grandfather's hands off the wheel, the Ford Motor Company was an atrophied enterprise. As civilian auto production resumed in 1946, Ford found itself in third place behind Chrysler and was fading fast. Young Henry brought in a team of outsiders who immediately embarked on a crash program to create Ford's first new postwar car. That car was the '49 Ford, and it was a huge advance over the previous model.inline_mediumwraptextright25708331/features/collectible_classic/0912_1949_1951_ford0912_01_z+1950_ford_tudor_sedan+side_view.jpgTrue

2010 Mazda 3 vs MazdaSpeed 3 – Comparison

2010 Mazda 3 vs MazdaSpeed 3 - Comparison
2010 Mazda 3 vs MazdaSpeed 3 - Mazda Sports Hatchback Review - Automobile Magazine
A bright red Mazdaspeed 3 recently showed up at the Automobile Magazine HQ, giving us the perfect chance to compare it side-by-side and back-to-back with our long term Mazda 3s Grand Touring hatchback.

Like Rusty, I'm close to the target demographic of the Mazdaspeed 3. I've certainly sung its praises in the pages of Automobile and on these Web pages, and all of that has been well-deserved. But if given the choice, I'd put my own money towards the base Mazda 3 without a second's hesitation.inline_mediumwraptextright26071454/reviews/editors_notebook/0911_2010_mazda3_vs_mazdaspeed30911_08_z+2010_mazda3_vS_mazdaspeed3+front_three_quarter_view.jpgTrue
