Breaking news! Mazda RX9 travels retro road!

Reports are emerging from all over the world that Mazda are planning to join the fashion trend of retro design for the launch of the RX9. "Actually, we are attempting to save planets resources by recycling old car parts and incorporating them into revolutionary design." a Mazda spokes person commented. "Off the record, it clever ploy to earn brown points with major Australian car manufacturer. They do it with Toyota, why not us?"

The new RX9 will incorporate emerging technologies such as drum brakes, chrome, a cartridge player sound system and a 3 speed automatic as standard equipment.

Look out General, you're about to be overtaken by the mighty Mazda Roadpacer!

I]Unfortunately the Roadpacer offered poor acceleration, and the fuel consumption was terrible. Contemporary reports suggest 9 mpg (26 L per 100 km). That said, once up to speed the car was able to waft along smoothly in impressive isolation.[/I]

...Sounds like an RX8.
