just read a magazine and it said, true?

 

i have heard rumors for a while now, but i dont know if any of them are 100% true. mazda's site lists a few upcoming 2006 vehicles, and the RX7 is not listed..[:@]

 

So far in the dealer network, there is nothing listed for the RX-7's return. If they're going to pull something like that off, they're going to have to keep us informed, so we can supply the parts...

 

your the one who read the magazine, did they say they where joking?

 

NO new RX7 in the future. 2007 Mazda CX-7 sport wagon, Mazda6 platform, five passenger, 2.3l turbocharged direct-injection 4cyl,
available front & all wheel drive. Sale nest summer.

i believe this person...



"The RX7 was going to be a platform mate to the RX8...not a replacement for it. And, there absolutely was a RX7 under development (this according to Mazda) it simply ended up on the chopping block. Largely due to issues with the RX8 I suspect as well as the Japanese exodus from the sports car market. One quasi sports car is likely all Mazda feels comfortable with right now."

its a shame...every time i see an RX7..especially the 3rd gen, they catch my eye
