Where are you getting this from?
The most recent news I can find is here: http://www.topspeed.com/cars/mazda/2...e-ar99495.html
And they got their info from Car and Driver. The rotary is in trouble and Mazda denies all rumors of working on an RX-8 successor....
That was their response when questioned about the 16x and a hybrid drivetrain (borrowed from Toyota in an agreement the two companies signed last year).
So it seems that the Rotary is in fact in very real danger of going away...again.

The RX-9 is pushed back to 2013 to get the Miata out in 2012, because of the cycle is up and the FT86 release next year.
A little birdie in Irvine, CA told me a month ago.
Have you seen this a couple of days ago, rumor or not sounds interesting.
