This is very exciting news, finally a concept what could be the next RX rotary sports car. From this picture it looks promising and has reminiscent lines of the classic FD and also similar to the Mercedes GTS which is a great thing. Rotary heads rejoice

Yea that RX-HATE was awesome despite the complete lack of TQ, HP, fuel consumption, fuel flooding, cold shutdown and shotty internals. LOL. However, options and competition are a good thing.

EDIT: I just clicked on the link...looks like an 86.

Please get your eyes checked...oops I forgot you bought a genesis Hyundai yuck..you obvious have not had the pleasure of driving a rotary or seen an FD. Can't judge in till we see final picture of this sexy car.

Please take some reading comprehension courses. Where did I say it was unattractive? Whats a "genesis Hyundai yuck"?

Sorry for that comment just got offended by the negative rotary comments. The RX7 was the best car I had owned yes it was unreliable but the attachment I had with the car was amazing. The day I sold her was one of the saddest day of my life, hearing this news makes me happy. If Mazda does it right I may turn to the dark side

Feelings. Feelings everywhere.

The RX-8 was absolutely not an RX-7. Let's just get that out of the way. And yes, the RX-8, despite having a remarkably awesome chassis and weight distribution (and therefore pretty damn good handling), sucked pretty badly as a whole in the grand scheme of things. It didn't do a whole lot of anything very well.

From the photo it sure has alot of the new Mercedes GT-S in it! The whole line is similar front to back. Mercedes-AMG GT / GT S Reviews - Mercedes-AMG GT / GT S Price, Photos, and Specs - Car and Driver

The 7 was and is still one one of the sexiest cars IMO. Not to mention it kicked serious as$. If Mazda goes rotary (again) make it a TRUE 7 successor, not the red headed bastard step child with knee pads that was the 8.

Mazda hit a home run with the beautiful 2016 mx5 I have faith in Mazda that the RX7 or RX9 will do the same.

Alot of the Wenkel Heads over rx.8 com swear Mazda had the 16X engine ready for emissions 10 years ago, so they seem to think this WILL be a real 7 successor.

Just read last week about Mazda and the rotary. The rotary is in development still. They are having problems with the emissions for 2018 and later. But the article also said that we might see the motor in 2018. Wait and see.

I like concepts but hate them too. They grap your interest, then leave you wanting more when they don't show up at the dealership.

People just don't understand. Extremely precise steering, aggressive... PERFECT RIDE HEIGHT AND SEATING POSITION. Felt faster than it was but was still very fast. All the necessary features a car needs for the time. The best moonroof in the business and a REAL trunk.

A quart of oil with every fill up? YES

Mechanical issues every few months when modified? YES

An affordable Ferrari of the time? YES

Better drive than the Z32? ABSOLUTELY
