Mazda's new rotary 1.6 liter engine
http://www.mazda.com/mazdaspirit/rotary/16x/
Looks like it should be making 300-350hp normally aspirated and better fuel economy from the direct injection.
Also since the side housings are going to be aluminum, I wouldn't be surprise if the engine was around 150lbs.
Now, all Mazda needs to do is make their shit look good....

I wouldn't say it's the greatest platform, but it's better than nothing.

Still not a fan. Mazda needs to bring back the 7 and be done with it.

They won't. We can only ask for a Miata-esque coupe... fuck I'd take a rotary Miata.
Maybe that's what they'll do? EPiC.
