Such a great, and beautiful video. It's great to know that Felix's design lives on today, with Mazda's help. I just hope it has many years to come.

Without the rotary, I don't know if I would have been as interested in automotive cars....I mean, I used to think "point a to point b" stuff....but once I saw the RX-7 and saw what it could do...I knew it was the engine for me. I've not changed since then.

The narrator calls a V6 (with a hundred or so moving parts) "simple".

The ironing is delicious.
