lol...i had a dream last night that they came out with the new 3 rotor. i had swapped it into my FC. lol....rotor nut. YES!



the kabura is not that pleasing to the eyes. especially the rear end! i agree with a new design team. even the MP5, and mazda 3's look better. id get one of those with some R-power.

I also don;t like the looks of the Kabura. But if it comes with 3 rotor, I'm interested because of the engine and not much else. There is also speculation (from RotaryNews) that mazda might come out with just larger displacement 2 rotor (16B??). Who knows?? But if its 3 rotor based out of Renesis, it might be interesting.. Also there is a good chance stuff might be interchangeable between 13brew and the engine engine (Can we say lower the compression and FI it!). I just hope that recent 8 recalls not going to make Mazda/Ford from discontinuing rotary cars.... But who knows.

Whatever the new 7 looks like it will be sure to perform, and thats what I care about.

I have read a lot of hype in car magazines saying Mazda is going to re-release the Rx-7. When I saw that I honestly thought that the magazines were just trying to get people to buy into their magazine but…



Do you really think they would re-release the Rx-7???



If so, Mazda has a lot to live up to.



I definitely wouldn’t mind them releasing another rotary car that would be great! Although anyone else think they should call it something else if they do?

about 2.5 years ago, I heard from someone that used to work for Mazda R&D telling me it was going to be called RX-9... And that rumors been around since. So, who knows?? Either its called 7 or 9, I just hope its going to be 3 rotor instead of 2. If its 2, no way I'm getting it (most likely renesis based).

man...just the thought of a 16b. damn. but i like the idea of a 20b being accesible to the US. no more front clip searching. plus...i always been attracted to NA rotarys. and if mazda creates a good car to match the motor. maybe more aftermarket following the rotary revolution. were short on products compared to others. more R-powerd cars means more attention. i cant wait. but this is reminding me of the rx8. hearing talk about a new rx7. seeing concept pics. talking about a 3 rotor. i hope they do better this time...

rx8's are just dissapointing. if they revive the 7, it should at least resemble a 7, not look like an 8. maybe come with a 3 rotor, possibly with turbo(s)? i might would buy one. but if it looks like an 8, i could care less.

i'm more interested in the 3 rotor, larger 2 rotor isnt gonna cut it, emissions and mileage will make that choice for us though.



on the subject of recalls, this latest one hasn't been nearly as bad as it seemed. so far out of the 50ish cars we've done, we have had one that was borderline

Would'nt it be an Rx9 ?

I don't care for the look. Mazda has been getting funkier every year IMO. Essentially every car they sell no looks like a RX8 or some variation of it. I think they should hire a new design group, possibly and Italian to come up with something special for the RX7 moniker.





That, or they should just go back to what freakin worked!! Let's be honest... The FD STILL owns 95% of the better affordable cars on the street. The new vettes are nice... um... wait, that's about it right? Pretty much everything else on the road is a TURD.



Oh - hi everyone. Figured I'd stop by. Still trying to convince the office that nopistons is work related. They haven't bought it for 2 years...
