[rx865]

its a shame. It would be nice if we saw a mazdaspeed rx8 in 2011 to say goodbye. Hopefully the 16x will live up to mazda's hype and either an rx9 or a new rx7 based on the FD chasis will be coming by 2013. I mean the "throw back" style is popular with muscle cars (mustang, challenger) why not apply that to imports? I think if they came out with a new generation of rx7 they would sell very well, but rumor is mazda has the 16x finished and is just waiting for the economy to become healthy which isn't a bad strategy tbh.

These are all just rumors and speculation because mazda doesn't like to tell their supporters anything. Read the second comment under the article, the guy who posted that has the perfect idea for maybe a mazdaspeed or a track spec version. The s2k has the CR trim, why not give the rx8 a version similar to that? Maybe call it the RS (rotary spirit)? A nice turbo or supercharger, even better suspension, body kit, and some weight loss would be great.
