Tuesday evening, June 2, 2026, around six o’clock, a train on Seattle’s Sound Transit 1 Line came to an abrupt stop. An obstruction sat on the elevated tracks near Mount Baker Station in a southeast neighborhood not far from downtown. The cause turned out to be a red Mazda CX-5 SUV that had driven onto the rails and kept going for roughly a quarter mile before getting stuck on the raised guideway.
When you catch a glimpse of a sports car on the road with the razor-sharp lines of a classic Porsche 911, it’s almost an automatic double take for most drivers. This 1993 RX-7 FD3S Type RZ has the exact same look, and somehow, it just works. Finished in a vibrant orange paint, paired with 17-inch Enkei NT-03 wheels, every single panel on this thing has been modded to give it that unmistakable Porsche feel. It was initially a limited-run JDM model, and the Collecting Cars listing does not specify the price, instead directing you to contact the vendor in Rouse Hill, New South Wales.
Nine RX-7s appeared in the 2006 film Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift. Eight were smashed, and one disappeared into a private hangar. This left the rest of us staring at posters. Next month, Mecum Auctions will offer a tenth car—built later, never wrecked, and legal to drive home tonight.
Mazda unveiled the Vision-X Coupe this week at the Japan Mobility Show, and curiosity turned into a full-on stare-down. Four doors, a taut shape, and a powertrain that looks back to the company’s heritage while simultaneously looking forward – this concept exudes promise. Built with 2035 as its first objective, the automobile challenges the boundaries of what a grand tourer should be, combining sharp lines with the practical room required on the road.
Mazda’s EZ-60, a midsize SUV unveiled alongside Changan, begins at $16,800 for the range-extended hybrid. It’s available in both pure electric and range-extended hybrid versions, and already making waves in China. It will arrive in Europe as the CX-6e in 2026. However, North America is still a question mark, which is unfortunate because this SUV has the potential to shake things up.
