This high-density finish gives the entire surface a sheen when illuminated, for a realistic metallic look. This causes the aluminum flakes to lie flat with regular spacing between each flake, just as if the layer had been hand-painted by a skilled craftsman. During the drying process the thickness of this layer shrinks to approximately 2.5 microns, about one quarter the thickness of most reflective layers. The reflective layer contains extremely thin, high-brightness aluminum flakes and must be applied very precisely to ensure even coating. By further developing its TAKUMINURI *1 painting technology originally created for Soul Red, Mazda has made it possible to achieve the look on mass-production vehicles using a three-coat paint structure consisting of color, reflective and clear coats. Traditionally, achieving such a finish was only possible with hand-painted concept cars using paint containing extremely thin aluminum flakes applied in multiple layers by master craftsmen. With strong contrast between light and shadow and a sleek, high-density finish, it gives the impression that the vehicle's body has been sculpted from a solid steel ingot. Machine Gray was developed to express the beauty of a machine's strength and precision. Mazda believes that color is one of the elements of form, and has focused on developing colors that accentuate the subtle yet dynamic surfacing of KODO design. Machine Gray will be made available on a wide range of Mazda models, including the all-new Mazda CX-9 due to go on sale in North America this spring. Machine Gray is Mazda's second premium color following Soul Red, which since its launch has come to represent KODO design. Looking forward to giving this CX50 my own person touches.HIROSHIMA, Japan-Mazda Motor Corporation has announced that the Mazda MX-5 RF will be available in Machine Gray, a new premium color designed to accentuate the beauty of vehicle bodies featuring KODO design. So I jumped on it, couldn’t be happier.Īs for the mustang, it’s my “fun car” I’ve done quite a bit of suspension work, FortuneAuto coilovers, just about all of the Steeda suspension upgrades (sway bars, endlinks, camber/toe arms, bushings, billet rear mounts, subframe alignmentand gtrack stiffening), Tri-ax short shifter, Ford PP2 tune with Gt350 TB/CAI, FRP catback, way too much Carbon fiber and a bunch of other smaller things, too many to list lol □ Most importantly a dealer had this in stock, the TPR meets all of the needs I was looking for, and there was no ADM. It’s got good drivability I love the steering feedback (I know that’s contentious in the owners), the simple interface and interior. The new CX5s are great but when it came down to it, the looks of the CX50 won me over. The Maverick was high on the list but ADM and availability were a big issue. The I didn’t like the looks of the RAV4 in person. The new CRV was underwhelming drive and power, nice interior but a bit busy for my liking. Took a look at the New CRV, RAV4, Maverick, CX5 and CX50. I was in the market for a new daily with light “softroading”capabilities. Click to expand.Thanks! My brother is a long time Mazda fan, he had a Speed3 (sold), and currently a CX-5 he suggested the Mazda line.
