Heard about this nearly 1 year ago now but the concept pictures are getting out now. Its to be an entry level rotary powered car for the younger generation...

This is not an offical concept, its just a bad chop..
Mazda has no plans of bringing back the Rx-3....
The only rotary we will see for 2007 is the Rx-7 concept.

A small rotary powered car would not be wise in this current state of high gas prices... this is why mazda is working on releasing hybrid cars not more gas guzzling rotaries....

well last night I was going back to uni, I stopped at the drivethru and this damned homeless guy stumbles over to the eunie and the drivethru window, and starts pestering the guy for food, and is grabbing as he passes me the food. he has this hugeass bottle of beer, and then as i'm rolling up my window the ******* keeps knocking at it asking for a favour... then heres where the **** hits the fan, the ******* spills his beer all over the eunie's DS fender and on the hood.........!!!!!!!!

i so wanted to get out and kick his ass but mommy was there... (she takes the eunie back home after I drive myself to school ... so he staggers out in front of the eunie, and I turn on my brights and lean on the horn... he acts all stupid and then stumbles off to the side and falls down; so but anyway, 5 minutes later when I get to school and I'm madly wiping the paint and apologising profusely to the eunie, and she's like "its just beer " GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!

I have to agree with The Saint (yep I said it), rotaries would not be a great choice in light of the world oil situation.

my last rotary (old school) got better fuel economy than my eunos 800 around town.

The RX-8 tops out on the highway at something like 23 mpg - pretty bad in an age when most V8-powered sedans can hit at least 30 with no problems. And the RX-8 is pretty light in weight, too, which makes it even more depressing.

The rotary's lack of fuel economy was what originally caused Mazda's near-demise in the mid-1970s after the oil crisis - I'm sure they're not eager to repeat that mistake now that gas prices are climbing again.

What is oil going for now, $70 a barrel? Nuts...
