Ford set to sell 20% Mazda stake
Mazda cars
Ford first bought a stake in Mazda in 1979

Troubled US carmaker Ford Motor is selling a 20% stake in Japan's carmaker Mazda Motor, the Japanese company has said.

Ford owns a 33.4% stake in Mazda. The move will reduce it to just over 13%.

Ford has been hit hard by falling sales around the world and is seeking to raise cash along with its Detroit competitors.

Shares in Mazda jumped 6.4% on Tuesday on reports about the possibility of the stake sale.

General Motors has sold its 3% stake in Japanese carmaker Suzuki for $230m (£156m).

Declining value

The possible sale of a 20% stake in Mazda was first reported more than a month ago.

At that moment, the stake was valued at $850m. However, based on Mazda's share price on Tuesday, the value of the holding has fallen to $543m.

Ford first bought a stake in Mazda in 1979. It took control of the Japanese carmaker in 1996, saving it from potential bankruptcy.

According to media reports, Ford's stake in Mazda may be bought by trading houses Sumitomo and Itochu, Japanese insurance companies, car parts maker Denso, as well as by Mazda itself.

The "Big Three" US car firms Chrysler, Ford and GM are seeking a total $25bn in emergency US government loan.




. . . didn't they just 'recently' receive $13 M from the FEDs ?



ed.sp

No, FORD didn't get anything as they didn't need It, Only GM and Chrysler did receive the $13.4bn in loans.

No problem, FORD is trying and by the looks of It, made the right moves, Hopefully they'll continue down that path.

I never owned a Cuda, but I did have a '70 Charger very much like this baby.
My interior was metalic blue and no stripe on the rear.
I had people want out before we even drove out of the driveway because they noticed the speedo went up to 220 mph. LOL

I still regret letting her go. sniff

I never had a Cuda either but I did have a '70 Challenger and that was one of the fastest cars I have ever driven. I had it up to about 140 mph before I had to shut it down.
For those of you who are not familiar with the Mopars of the time the Challenger was the Dodge version of the Cuda.

Not Me, Mustang on the Brain here, Looking for a cheap one that's decked out isn't easy, But I believe I found one, But It would depend on the trade in value and the dealer financing Me as payments would have to fall between $100 and $125 a month and that doesn't include insurance as that's another $69.30 a month from GEICO. sigh. The car below is being sold by a Dealer of course, Don't know why they took the photos on the street, But It's Good at least.

Sure It's not Orange, But Torch Red is close. :)

Hint: Look at the name of the file and You'll get a nice surprise.
