I sincerely hope Mazda will revive the Millenia in North America in the next couple of years, replacing the Miller Cycle, with the RX8 Nemesis Rotary. The Millenia may not have done well with sales here due to the unknown factor with the Lysholm Compressor. Mazda however has refined the rotary, and I am sure it will hold its ground well against the competition the Miller Cycle Millenia faced from the the likes of the Lexus ES300 and Infiniti I35.
I do not believe it's in Mazda's interest to discard a luxury line. If I was truly happy with a Protege then I would go one step up to the "6". There is nothing beyond the "6" now, except for the new RX8. I think all the weaknesses that readers express about the Millenias Miller Cycle will be overcome once it is launched with the RX-8 Rotary. I am eagerly waiting!

I dont think thats going to happen. The new rotary is impressive but it lacks torque. They say the new engine has powerband like a S2000, so you really have to rev it up to get going. Most people are not looking for something like that in their luxury sedan. Just my 2 cents

 I think the reason it didn't really sell was one it wasn't marketed like the Protege 5 or Miata. 2ndly it lacked to big speed that was being sold in Like the Lincolnd LS, IS300, Maxima Sport etc. I never saw one on the road when I bought mine. It was on a delivery truck and I had to have it. If the do bring it back..I hope they don't do what the did with the Mazda 6. Take away space and comfort.
