If you think your engine is gone. Do a simple finger touch test.

Remove trailing plugs. Disconnect coils. Spin engine over on starter whilst you hold a finger over the plug tightly.

If there is no pulsing pressure, then your engine is dead. If there is pressure, find a rotary workshop & take it there for diagnosis.

Since you fail to mention your location in your avator section like the rest of us do. I can't recommend a shop for you.

Bottom line is. Do not trust a Mazda dealer 100%. The specialist rotary workshop is far superior & far cheaper.
