That specific article is probably not a repost... but there are thousands like it.
I seriously doubt the new RX will have the same door set up as the 8 like it claims. Most the other articles just talk about the engine and where it's getting it's design from, usually claiming it to be a 2 door coupe.

Huge hole is huge
I don't know, I can see them going with the suicide door design again. They made a conscious decision to do that with the 8, due to the demographics they were aiming the vehicle at...

I wouldn't call it "news", as it doesn't state a source and isn't a well known site to begin with. Plus it's the internet, they might just post such a small article in order to retain more search hits.

Don't get RX9 articles confused with the dubbed next RX7 either. It's been said that RX7 and RX8/9 are not the same, so suicide style doors in the RX9 could come and RX7 looks to be a 2 seater sports car like the 3rd gen.

Momentum Keeps Me Going
It sounds like another of the "..something rotary is coming...just don't hold your breath" with 'our sources' having no more information than anybody else who's been paying attention for the last umteen years or so to devulge. What is plain is that Mazda's has decided to turn this story into a decade long waiting game.

I wouldn't be surprised if Mazda sticks with the 2+2 format and suicide doors. If you read reviews of owners, they all praise that the 8 is so much more user friendly and practical because of it.

This, essentially. I can't see them going out on such a limb to offer two different rotary vehicles...It's not like this thing is a decent seller by any means.
