He's full of ****.

I don't like the looks of the Miata, too boring and if the rotary (key word if) was ever put in there it would defeat the whole design purposes they were and are doing currently. Plus I would never buy a newer rotary powered model after the 8 if they put if in that little thing.

I'm going to guess it's a joke - it's not bad news if true, though :D
