| '''Ẽfini MS-8. 1992–6 (prod. n/a). 4-door hardtop sedan. F/F, 1995, 2497 cm³ (V6 DOHC).''' Yet another variation of the [[Mazda Cronos]], a hardtop sedan replacing the [[Mazda Persona|Persona]]. Styled as an upscale luxury car for [[Mazda]]’s new sales’ channel as the company pursued an ill-fated multi-channel strategy. Unique instrument panel. Never that successful, as with all of the Cronos-based models, thanks to Mazda’s poor retailing decisions at the time, making cars available exclusively through only selected dealers.
