The release of this car was way ahead of its time with a perfect weight balance 50/50 and only 2800lbs with 255bhp. I hope Mazda works out the kinks on the next rotary engine. With the help of an electric motor in conjunction with the rotary it will have potential.


Between the bunch. It looked most like a Ferrari or an exotic, down to the styling and build quality. The FD was a modern marvel IMHO. Being that Honda had the NSX with about the same power and a very slight advantage in capability. The Mazda was the best bang for buck. The Z32 had more power but weighed 800/900lbs more as well
