According to a report from Autocar, Mazda is currently working on a successor to the old RX-7 and the current RX-8. (We've heard this before. Many times.) Believed to carry the RX-9 nameplate, the next-gen sports car is tipped to ditch the innovative but clumsy quasi-four-door layout of the current RX-8, and that the platform is to be spun off from the MX-5 roadster.

this blogger from autoblog doesn't seem to know too much about rotary power. or what he does know is from articles circa 1973.

oh, and he apparently is unaware that hydrogen fueling stations can be hooked up at your house, and are being built out in CA.

Still I am ready for new rotary offering from Mazda. I hope it doesn't stray too far from the pictured concept car.
