Rumor has it that Rx-7 will be returning in the near future.  When I first heard this news I was estatic, after all 

who wouldn't welcome an updated balls out sports car like the rx-7.  The rx-8 has brought much shame to the rx family - at least amongst performance oriented enthusiasts; and it is time to bring back the glory.  Immersed in the thought of a new Rx-7 I got on my computer (actually I was already on my computer)  and searched, and searched.  I ran in to a couple sources but like a doctor telling you that you are going to die, I needed a second, third and fourth opinion.  You see, the few sources I came across spoke blasphemous words of electric motor and 2+2 seating on a Mazda 5 platform.  How can this be? This is worse than bringing a hot chick home from the bar only to find out she is a dude (I do not speak from experience). 

So for now, my hopes of a new bad a-ss  rx-7 are down in the crapper.  Blue Balls at its worst.
