^^^^Please enlighten me as to exactly what a rotary engine can do that cannot be accomplished by any other engine type? If it exists only for the sole purpose of being different, then I agree the rotary does accomplish the objective.
It was my understanding that rotary engines can rev very high and produce good power with a tiny displacement. I don't know about you, but I like diversity in the car world.
Rotary engines are small and light and make ****-tons of power when turbocharged. They spool big turbos like big displacement motors. And they rev to the moon.
Yeah I can see how they suck.
They would be particularly bad if Mazda added direct-injection-like fuel delivery to help combat the rotary's pre-ignition/detonation weakness.

I like the car on looks alone. As for the rotary or "Wankel" engine it has it's pros and cons. Would I own one? Probably not, but I can be impressed and amused that Mazda will put this into production. I do like how it sounds like a motorcycle at high rpms imo
