The M2 1003, nicknamed the Junior, was a planned lightweight version of the Eunos Roadster from M2, the Tokyo-based Mazda subsidiary that tuned and developed special cars until it was shut down in 1995. It would have followed the sporty M2 1001 Clubman and the touring-focused M2 1002 Vintage. M2 struggled to find buyers for the 1002, perhaps because of its focus on luxuries and the gloom over the Bubble Economy, and the slow sales caused the 1003 to be cancelled before it reached customers. Most of the specialty models M2 did sell were Roadster variants, and two later Roadster concepts, the 1006 and the 1008, did reach prototype stage.
