RX-7 Comming in 2005 ?
 

A famous business newspaper web site in Japan says that Mazda decided to release new RX-7. But it seems to be after 2005.
Is this true ?? :)

That is consistent with the going rumour that's been floating around. 2006 as a 2007 model is what I've heard. Of course this hasn't really confirmed by anyone so take these internet rumours with a grain of salt.

Care to translate the article for us?

Matsuda and RX - 7 to revival * after 2005

RX - 7 revival - -. Matsuda car to " RX of the sport type which is announced on the 9th - followed 8 ", one time the advanced sport car " RX which abolishes - set the policy of selling the new model of 7 " in the August last year. It judged the sport car market which so far hovers is a recovery keynote e.g., the Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. last year made revive " fair ready Z " calls popularity.
The new RX - 7, loads RX - 8 similar and the new model rotary engine. It has the high travelling efficiency where as for the highest output 280 horsepower, as for full speed the speed per hour 250 kilometer super () with, RX - 250 horsepower of 8, 240 kilometers (the same) it exceeds 180 kilometers domestic specifications. It is the possibility that it becomes the pure sport car of 2 passengers. Sale time trend and the RX of the sport car market of the world - depends on also the demand of 8, it is seen, but it is after 2005. Price is undecided.


basically they decided last year to go ahead with the 7 but it is still contigent on selling alot of rx-8's and it will probably be a 2 seater, no pricing yet

perfect timing...=)

2003 to 2006 rx8 ... 2006-bling bling RX7...their timing for me could not be better...

it's "fairLADY" z, right? that's what 350z is called in japan

2003 - 2006 rx-8? you mean they'd stop making the 8 before start making the 7? i'd hope the 8 would go on forever...side by side with rx-7. and soon, mazda would have a fleet of rotary-engined sports car. heh heh heh

my numbers are from when i hope on owning the car...not from when the rx8 will lose in production...rx8 is mazda's TOP car now... and its the best on the market...killing it after 400million $ of research would not pay the $$ spend developing back...i believe the rx8 is here to stay.

well now that if u have read bloomberg bews and seen that the mazda company plans to relewase 36new models by 2005 i'd say a rx7 if well underway.

I can't wait to see pictures!

...Ok, I admit that I have a problem and that I've become addicted to this forum and viewing any and all information about the RX-7 and RX-8

:p
