RX-7 had too many problems for Mazda to keep it in production. I woud love to have one though.

I think the new RX-8's look just as awesome as the RX-7. Actually, it looks more aggressive.

Honda Type R's seem to be a little overrated. Too much money for the extra's. Still wouldn't turn one down if I had a chance to get one at a reasonable price.

The RX- 8 is NOT the RX- 7 replacement. It's a 4 door to introduce the new Renesis motor. If it does well enough, Mazda may bring back the RX- 7.

I know, I never said that it was. I said it looks just as good. But you are right, if the RX-8 goes well, they will bring the RX-7 back with the Renesis engine seeing that it's better built than the original Wankel.

I know my Mazda RX's pretty well.
