Toyo Kogyo was actually Mazda's parent company.

I say good, I am glad consumer reports does not encourage pointy headed practical people to buy Boxsters. It keeps the riff-raff out.

And is now simply known as Mazda. No direct relation to Toyota. Considering all the Mitsubishi parts on my Mazda, they may have had some affiliation with Mitsubishi.
