as awesome as the rx-7 was; i would find it retarded if mazda re-releases the rx-7.

if you look at all the rx models they follow a sequence

rx-2,rx-3,etc..

idk to me it would seem stupid to go backwards, rx-9 seems to be the most logical thing to do. dont get me wrong i love all rx-7 i have owned 2 fc, but it's time to let it go! and unto the future awesome rotarys!!!!

Like my buddy said the other day...who cares what they call it because the rotary isn't really experimental anymore.

Mazda already had a RX-9 if I am not mistaken.

well maybe it's an omen that the next RX would be a "sedan" as well, I like the 4 doors.

I could have sworn the "X" in RX stood for Export and not Experiment. The X in 16X is prolly experiment though.


I thought the rotary cars got tagged RX when it hit the states... Then it just caught on and stuck.

people argue the meaning of the x in rx forever. but the reality is that initially it was just an x. more recently mazda has adapted is its naming convention to include the x for sportier fare(mx/rx/cx) while the regular segment vehicles get "mazda#".

the x in 16x stands for prototype/experimental
