Cool--Good find. I learned a few things.

Didn't know there were that many cars with a rotary engine. Wish a few more of them made it to the US, sure would be great for us.

The Mazda site is very interesting, good find. It does make me wish that the 6 port 12A made it here though. I would love to see how that helped power.

Why did the early 12a have 120 HP, but the 12a in the SAs and FBs only have 105?

Keen eyes will note it states "Savannah RX-7 1979-1985"... thus bolstering my long-held belief that all 1st gens, not just SAs, are Savannahs
