Ok, so i've got a Mazda 110S (L10A) '67 in Chamonix White in my garage.
I'm also looking at the exact same thing right now in my UCD, but it's called the Mazda Cosmo Sport (L10A) '67 - the only difference is that it was sold as the Mazda 110S outside of Japan.
A bit lame that isn't it? to put an identical car into the collection that is only different by name? :crazy:

Stunningly beautiful car though. I'd love to see it given the Premium treatment.
 
Yeah I thought that was a little unnecessary but you know there are actually four altogether right? Two different years with the two names, four almost identical models.

Great car though as you said. First sports car with a rotary engine pretty much, and a forerunner in that respect of the RX7.
 
That's something I both like and dislike about GT5. As a race game, the four models of the Cosmo are really unnecessary, redundant, and just serve to pad the car total. 👎 But as an interactive automotive museum, it's interesting to see the evolution of some cars. 👍

I lean towards the 👍 because nobody else really does the automotive museum like PD, but I can see where a lot of people wouldn't enjoy it. It sure made collecting cars harder (before the checkmarks next to cars in the UCD).
 
Hold out for the 68...it's the better car...you learn early in the game at Srathe that 68 cosmos is one fast little mofo...for it's class...
 
I did both roadster 4 hour endurance races (A and B spec). And I got both cars. The color wasn't even different from the two.



Seriously?

Couldn't be the GVS Endurance, that rewards two almost identical Hondas:sly:

Roadster 4 Hour Endurance.

Want to know the worst part about it? The 2nd OCD had both of them for sale, negating any reason for doing said event.

I did both expecting a badass car as a reward, but nah, I get that. Both times. Even Bob was pissed off beyond belief. What happened to awesome prize cars? :grumpy:

Would have preferred the RX7 LM Car for A-Spec and for B-Spec even another Furai wouldn't have been bad.

Theres a bunch of cars like this, the Mazda6 Comes to mind, of which every version (including the Race car as both Atenza and 6, and they are all identical.
 
I've got 3 :| (maybe even 4)

Got two from races and one because I liked it and bought it before I bothered to look up any of the rewards for races.

Ahhh, but you have forgotten the NSU Spider, created in Germany in 1964.

However, the Cosmo is a great car. Very fun to drive 👍 What I don't get is why it's a prize car for an endurance race. Prize should have been the RX7 LM Race Car.

This guy's on the right track. I honestly think they screwed the prizes up...

They give you two of these lame identical (LEVEL 0) cars for endurance races (that require LEVEL 26 to enter), and then they give you two awesome and expensive Mazda concept cars (one of which is a LEVEL 23 car) for the crappy Roadster Cup (a LEVEL 6 race)!

The Sillyness is the fact that this car is a prize car!

And for four, 4, "fo" hours of racing , no less. No wonder I am constantly running them off the road in the SE's :crazy: Have not driven mine yet, probably rusting out by now.
