I have heard for almost a year now,they were going to do a "retro" RX3..

Im suprized no one commented on the pic In the link I posted..

Im 100% on Mazdas side to do a "retro" car.. and I personally think the 3 fits it perfect,since it was a bigger car than the R100,RX2.But It would of been nice to have them 2 in the line up..

BUT to me the retro concept car,looks like a Protege,with the RX3 stlyle,head lamp/grill.

I read somewhere they might bring in a rotary pickup.Since the REPU was the truck of its time.Soon there wont be a Mazda/Ford "mini" truck since they will up the size of it.I guess they still can use an old platform,and just put in the Renesis.

I personally dont like what i have seen with the performance of the Renesis.
1)Mazda lied on the HP.
2)I have seen a turbo charged one at a drift event,and dont think all that work was worth it to gain that less of an HP..

But the Renesis,goes to show.The Rotary can pass emissions,with this new design.Thats what hurt Mazda the most.
