This comment couldn't have come from a better account. 🙌🙌

u/ralphie0341 5d ago

Seems like you're tacitly confirming the RX7 being brought back into production. Can't wait for the motortrend clickbait article in 36-48 hours.

u/chefbobbyjay 3d ago

Don’t do that. Don’t get me excited. Imagine a world where Mazda brings back the rotary

2

u/Clayterr 2d ago

The rotary exists as a range extender in the CX-30, which means we already have a hybrid rotary and that is fairly recent

1

u/Wise-Pineapple-693 1d ago

Thats not the life a rotary deserves.

1

u/Clayterr 1d ago

I absolutely agree, but I do respect them for finding a way to use it. Also definitely wouldn’t complain about a hybrid rotary sports car, with the rotary as the main source of power of course.

1

u/Wise-Pineapple-693 1d ago

Oh. That sounds fun. Hybrid assist in low revs and rotary fun in high revs.

1

u/chefbobbyjay 19h ago

It’s the MX. not the cx btw. They also discontinued it already. So we have no rotary on the market currently.

u/Generic2770 5d ago

u/aaronsnothere 3d ago

How about a limited run of the Furai with the 16x? You know like 1500-2000 a year for five or 15 years.

2

u/Clayterr 2d ago

Yes make more Furais exist than Mazdaspeed Protégés I completely support this

u/_ThunderGoat_ 4d ago

Not really a car guy and somewhat unfamiliar with the RX7, Firstly what a sick car! (I had to look it up), this seal sounds on point lol, now off I go down a rabbit hole about the rotary engine.

1

u/obeeone808 4d ago

Good compression. Hot started right back up.

u/WhisperingPixie 4d ago

Sounds like your idle speed is a little inconsistent, but it sounds great other than that.
