Its sad n' all. I sometimes think that they called the RX-8 the "RX-8" because I don't think Mazda could've really topped the 3d gen RX-7. So I say let the RX-7 end with the 3rd generation. Let it become a classic now, a legend in its own right.
And have the RX-8, and so on, continue the rotary existence.

Ford wants Mazda to build a car that sells thousands of units and Mazda would like to bring a successor 4th gen to the market but i think its practicality would be the same as the FD. It wouldnt sell as many units or probably about the same as it did before leaving the question will there be another 4th gen RX-7? I dont know but unless they (Ford) accept the fact that the RX-7 has to enter a niche market to survive and keep its past history as a true sports car i dont think its going to happen. I would more or less lean on the fact of an RX-9 but not another RX-7. Sorry to sound so pessimistic.
