Originally posted by jay this isn't the right thread for this topic but is anyone else really bummed that the 'engine start' button didn't make it into the production model?

RX-8 is also certain to be offered with several tiers of performance following its 2002/3 launch, including an entry level inline four-cylinder and turbocharged versions of the standard 184kW "Renesis" rotary engine.

there will not be an inline 4 for the rx8! and the artist conception of the mps626(!) is laughable :D
