This is from Road and Track (Sept. 2002).
"Mazda mulls RX-7 rebirth, Miata makeover Although the last (Japan-only) RX-7 is scheduled to come off the assembly line this month, plans are underway at Mazda to create a replacement, so says a source close to the company. The future 2-seater, which may go by a new name, will be built on the RX-8's platform and make 280 bhp from the Renesis rotary engine without the help of forced induction. With this new entry, Mazda will have a three-tier sports-car lineup, something that the company has long wanted. But the fate of this 2-seater rests largely on the success of the RX-8, the company's 4-door sports car due out in February. If the RX-8 falls flat on its face, don't expect a new RX-7 of any other sports car, with the exception of the Miata, any time soon. And for those who have been waiting for Mazda to build a rotary-powered Miata, you'll have to wait a little longer. Although Mazda will build an MPS (Mazda Performance Series) version of the current Miata for the Japan market only, that car will be powered by a 180- to 200-bhp 1.8-liter inline-4. But the next-generation Miata, due in 2004 or 2005, will have a rotary option. Look for power to be about 200 to 250 bhp, giving the roadster zero-to-60 mph times in the 5.0-second range. The car will be built on a shortened version of the RX-8's platform, and may come in both coupe and convertible forms."

Interesting. the last spirit R rx7 rolled off in August i believe it was. I had heard rumors that they might bring it back depending on the Rx8 but i highly doubt it will happen. Mazda made some fatal errors on the rx7 when they imported it and I dont think they will take the risk agian even though they will probably sell more. The main problem was to make them pass emmisions in the US they had to comprimise reliability and price which threw off alot of buyers. But ill be happy if it comes back out, Ill buy one.
