I wonder.... it will probably depend a lot on the popularity of the RX-8. I guess anything is possible though.

Yes, the rumor is somewhat true. Mazda is doing the same thing as chevy and such...just as chevy will not make another camaro til 2005, the rx7 will not be back until mid decade either...it supposedly will be a new rx7 built on the a twin sequential(yes, again) renesis and rx8 platform. However, we will probably see the rumored MX5 Mazdaspeed miata before we see another new rx7 in the states...

my info is from collective sources(and a friend living in guam who gets more news then us, lol)...
