Showcasing Classic Mazdas by Nobody: 8:35am On Oct 06, 2014 |
Let's pick on Mazdas next. Mazda is still the premier entity that is mass producing engines based on the wankel principles. If you've never driven a rotary engined car before please make sure that you give it a go if the opportunity presents itself. It's not going to be a church deliverance affair but when you nudge the rpm past the mundane 5k rpm that mere engines are limited to and go deep into up to 9k rpm (on some cars or modified cars) then you may hear angels singing. 1 Like

When the Miata was released in the US, there was a waiting list, there were no test drives given and there was a $5k to $7k dealer markup. It was like buying cocaine, you would go and make friends with car salesmen and offer them bribes so that your name can mysteriously get on the list or above others. Mazda have been making AWD cars for a long time, they had the 323 GTX, the Mazdaspeed3 and Mazdaspeed6. Both were turbo but the 6 added AWD.

It is surprising how some manufacturers stick to certain tradition, the wankel engine. Where is the RX-8...one of my favorite sports cars... |

yungboss: Yeah I see one in Ibadan and it was only upon very close up view that I recognized it as a Miata, it was completely trashed. I wept silently for that car. |
