Boowana returns to NAIAS 2006.
 

Hello all. It's been a while since I posted here but wanted to let everyone know that three of us will be attending Press Days at the North American International Auto Show between Jan 9th - 11th. You may remember me covering the launch of the RX-8 there a couple of years ago and sending back pictures and information right form the show.
There is a slight chance we may see a new rotary concept. :mdrmed:

In any event, we will post anything interesting on the site as soon as things are announced. I hope we won’t be disappointed.

Regards,
Brian
MAZDA Enthusiasts Advisory Council
Gulf Region.

someone get ahold of Jim OSullivan and get him to name the "3 other US models" he is talking about. any clue? im thining he might mean the 7 seat cx-7 (cx-9) the larger Mazda6 for 2007 and the production coupe based on the Kabura.

I'll do my best to trick it out of them :)

No rotary.... nooooooooooooooooooooooooo....

Looks like the Z and the RX-8 had a love child (can you say monteagu and capulet?sp?)

I think it looks awesome.

Needs rotary loving in a 2500lb package.

according to rotary news they have not made a firm commitment to NOT put a rotary in it . . . I still think that Mazda needs a "supercar" kind of car to draw the crowds and to compete with the skyline and next "supra" . . . maybe it will be based on this chassis . . .
