I believe lil ole Mazda corporation's race car came in second right behind the Caddy after 24 hours of hard running. I was kind of proud of that, owning a Mazda and having great luck with it.
With complaints from dealers that their products were beginning to all look alike,in 1926,DuPont-General Motors adopted design obsolescence as corporate policy,with the annual styling change,under what Alfred P.Sloan referred to as the 'law of the Paris dressmaker.'
