No new RX-7; more RX-3 news

CarsGuide has a very poor storyby Paul Gover on the (un)likelyhood of a new RX-7.

There will be no new Mazda RX-7. That is the message, loud and clear, at the Tokyo Motor Show.

This line makes me think that an “RX-3″ is more and more likely:

But Mazda continues to deny plans to put a born-again RX-7 into its line-up. It says it has more than enough sports-car coverage with the MX-5 and RX-8.

I also like this:

Mazda Australia’s former managing director, Malcolm Gough, who is now general manager of overseas sales at Mazda headquarters in Hiroshima, says: “There is no plan for an RX-7. There is nothing firm. So far as I know, nothing is happening.”

It reminds me of Seargent Schultz from Hogan’s Hero’s. “I know nothing! Nothing!”.

Let’s not even discuss the “1980s RX-3″ part at the end. RX-3s ceased production in 1976, as can be ascertained from the Mazda Australia website.
