Slow car fast came to me years ago when I owned a 1987 Turbo II with 400 RWHP. Sold it soon after and built another RX7, much simpler system, 235RWHP, 2500 pounds. That was one of my favorite cars.

I have a friend who is a serious Rotary fan, I told him the twins are the car Mazda should have built as an RX7, instead of the RX8 that they did.(I have an 05 RX8, love it, not so much on reliability though, same for maintenance)

The easiest way to describe the difference "the RX8 is a chef's knife, the twins are scalpels"
