As much as I like Mazda the company and the cars they produce, I can't
remember a single Mazda commercial, ever. I remember seeing some, but
not what was in them. As opposed to the "Joe Isuzu" series, which I'll
never forget.
I remember "Joe Isuzu", but I don't remember anything from the
commercials other than he was the quintessential "lying" car salesman.
Don't know if "Zoom Zoom" will have as Iconic a status in 20 years as
old Joe Isuzu.
I'd have stayed with Mazda if they'd had a model comparable to the Focus
Wagon, but the Mazda 5 just wouldn't do it. Would have meant a big
sacrifice in gas mileage.
