Hey guys, I have been keeping up with this forum for some time now, but I am just now got around to posting.
Anyways, I didnt see this discussed before and did a search with no results so...
What do you all think about the RX-7 that is supposed to be released as an 06 model car? I am not sure, but from what I remember, Mazda is saying it will be a very lightweight 2 seater with a beefed up renesis engine. 260-300+ hp in a 23-2600 lb car?? Cost estimated to be below 40K (It would have to be to sell). Personally, I am a big fan of the new RX-8 and don't really like the older gen RX-7's.
Anyways, I was wondering because I am getting my new car in a year and so far the Elise is at the top of my list. I dont think the RX-7 really threatens to bump the Elise out of first place in my book, even if it has the power and weight Mazda says it will. But do you think it will persuade others to snag the new rotary?
