2012 Mazda RX7?

I doubt we'll see this. But I must say that the rendering they have is very ugly and not RX-7ish at all. I'd imagine a 3-rotor motor would be good,

I'd imagine a 3-rotor motor would be good, but I doubt they'd ever do that again. I don't know anything about the 16x, but I'm going to assume it's 2 rotors.

I'd like to see a rotary miata, to be honest. Smaller more powerful motor in that car would be sweet.

The 16x is a two rotor, but has more displacement; and it is lighter than the current engine. From what I have heard, the redline will be lower than the RX8's in an effort to find more torque.....

I am so with you on a rotary-powered Miata
