WOW!!!!
I didn't know that Mazda only produced white color cars until the introduction of the FD.
The color designer at Mazda must be from Texas(Capital of white color cars in the world).

I'm really glad that everyone likes the pictures. I absolutely had to share them with this forum (thanks Clayton). I'll be more than glad to send you the uncompressed pics.
Germany actually has several wankel rotary engine museums (and I plan on going to all of them ). I figure that while I live near the birthplace of the wankel, I have to take full advantage of it before I come back to the US.
Did anyone notice on one of the pics (the one that looks like a spyrograph(sp?)) the little business card in the bottom right corner? That business card actually belonged to Felix Wankel himself. The "doodlings" on the spyrograph are from Felix Wankel (at least I was led to belive that). I nearly fell over when I saw the business cards. There are actually two pics of his business cards.
I tried to capture as much detail in the pics as possible.

it's very nice to see to those pics.
I haven't been to that museum (yet) but I think I'll go once my NSU Ro80 is reday to roll.
While being in Germany, you should visit Felix Wankel's grave. I've been there two years ago, and it was worth the trip.
