Flagship cars and slowing sales and a changing market.
The Millenia replaced the 929 as a flagship car for Mazda and then the Mazda 6 did the same.

The Milenia was not a big seller for Mazda. Personally, I think they should have kept making RX7's but those rotary engines were a too much of a pain once they had issues and well I guess they get rid of certain models to try something new.
Commonsince76: I know an RX7 is a different class vehicle, my point was that it was their #1 selling vehicle for a very long time, then boom certain issued caused sales to go down with that model, so they dropped it and replaced it with the RX-8. Basically if it's not selling anymore, it's out with old and in with something new to stay in competition with other companies. In turn, that's exactly what happen with the Milenia.

The Millenia was dropped after 2002, because of slow sales, and was replaced by the Mazda6 (which became the new flagship Mazda) for 2003.
The RX7 is not even in the same class as the Millenia; its a sports coupe and the Millenia is a midsized sedan.

Um...generic pricing. Back in 2001, I told my 20-year-old daughter she could get anything she wanted for her birthday,which was a week away. She told me A New Mazda Millenia. I was thinking, "Okay, A Mazda, How hard can it be?"
I went to the dealership. It was $31,000!

I don't know. I had a new 2002. Great car! I traded it for the PR5. I own a 626 now. I really like Mazda.
