RX8 in China

Regarding the RX8 sales starting up in China, I just saw a VR 8 yesterday in BaoAn area of Shenzhen - unfortunately, no camera with me to capture this (there were 3 guys looking under the hood) -I've seen a couple in Hong Kong before but this is the first I've seen in China!

If that is the piston version, then thats a real shame but at least it makes me feel good cause we are driving the real deal.

I wonder if they are using the mazda mx5 engine block and transmission ??

If it's really a piston? Would the torque be higher ?? And would that mean better FC ??

And turbo... would it be easier to install....?

Since its piston why dont they change the name to something like PX-8. :p

Lets just add a RB26dett, that would probably solve all our problems and definitely has lots of potential.
