Holy smokes, Batman... that's a prime example of "neck-snapping acceleration"

Pro Source signed a deal with Mazda and one other engine maker to develop a 3 rotor. But I doubt the 3 or more rotor engines will ever see production use.

I'll assume you are talking about a different currency then American. If that is true get ready for a 50k price tag easily.
