The Reason

The reason for this, is Japan is getting the RX-9, a three rotor turbo charged two seater, instead of the underpowered RX-8, that we will be getting because of emission restrictions. To compensate for this, we are getting a similar powerplant but attached to a four door (suicide), four seat car. Their car will also have a NOS option, and for their security forces, the RX-9 will be armor plated as well as carry concealed .50 calibre thompson machine guns imbedded in the doors. The RX-10, which will see release later this year is essentially the RX-9, but with a little Japanese girl in the back seat for occasional after work "forays".

Well arent we the witty one. A two-seat rotary sports car is still in the design stages, pending sccuess of the RX-8 and Renesis technology. The rotary came within inches of being buried as a viable motor platform by Ford. It's got to prove itself all over again with good sales , support and dependability.
