Since Ford owns Mazda couldn't it be possible that they COULD (theoretically) make an rotary escort?! Now wouldn't that be

interesting.......



Anyone seen/heard of a rotary powered gokart? if not I AM GONNA

BE THE FIRST TO RULE THE WORLD! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.....



Why do you park on a driveway and drive on a parkway?!



and Last but not Least..has Mazda ever made a 4wd or awd car?

Theoretically, I suppose ford could very well make a rotary powered escort, but since they don't make the escort anymore, I suppose it would go into the focus. But since the focus already has its SVT model for all of the SCC freaks out there, I would highly doubt that they would switch the piston powerhouse that they have in there, to a rotary one. As for them making another car into a rotary, I don't think they would and I sure as hell hope they wouldn't... Ford has enough mistakes in their cars, they don't need to go and screw up a rotary engine.
