    i used to drive a G-Body wagon....

    is it surprising to me that chrysler sells as many as they do... being only 2 vehicle models...?
  3. loki
    the next evolution is obviously a 390Z. 240-> 260-> 280 (then 80's/90's things), then 350-> 370->.... see?!

    autos have a hard time spinning to the ~9K rpm the rotary can do. lower rpm(all things equal otherwise)= less HP. comment says the rev limiter was removed on this vid..... factory it came with a rev limiter, probably <8Krpm... so factory rating HP was lower. also, the s2000 didn't have an auto tranny. some praise needed for that, but woul dhave had some reliability issues most likely.... like an unlimited RX8 would have....probably.

    can we see a return of the 80's dual style?!

    fuel cells, "HCCI"... we'll see about the 2nd from Mazda, hopefully "soon" in production(2019 model) Riv, yeah, if the "powertrain" can be modular, just pull it out if it's a flop and and change it to the other version...

    yeah. if they got the 100HP/L they get in the CX-9, be interesting if they did that to the 1.5L to compare with the 2.0L, but that'll probably never happen. EPA should really just post numbers at several MPH increments and then a "city" cycle and agressive Highway driving cycle.

    best i've gotten was ~42.3, worst was 28ish. but i don't do a ton of stop and go and don't speed excessively. wondering how the skyactiv-x will add to this data..
  9. loki
    Just from the first picture i thought it might be a Lincoln.
  10. loki
    i think Mazda is supposed to be doing something more there... perhaps the 6, or more info on skyactiv-x....
  11. loki
    hm, will Mazda get access to that 8-speed? will they help each other with adding the high compression tech to a v6 and v8...dreaming in the clouds....
  12. loki
    overall kinda mazda-ish...moreso with the dash...but kinda melty. like the screen and hvac slid down ...
  13. loki
    guessing the '18 model info should be starting to show up in the next month or 2... curious when skyactiv gen 2 will make its debut.
  14. loki
    a blue/green tinted chromish audi. bently convertable i think
  15. loki
    we will. but now i'm working. contract job for intelligrated (honeywell).

    insurance... mine dropped ~33% from IL...
  17. loki
    I was thinking of noting my bolded in your quote... I had never before seen "barrels" called out differently than bbl's

    #4, according tho the ratios on honda's website, the ratio spread is 6.04. i'd guess they're aiming at more than 7:1... like GM and ford.. and others...will help MPG and smoothness that a 4cyl may lack compared to the v-6. just sayin.
  19. loki
    gah, i was just talking about the star trek timeline... but then comes warp tech.. in comes vulkans, then peace and expansion till... klingons, romulans, cardasians, the borg...
  20. loki
    careful, we don't want to invite WW3...
  21. loki
    just personal experience.. got a 5Y loan on my mazda when i bought it... I refi'd almost a year later to 66m and 1.76% Less. Over the past 2 years I had made 5 months ahead payments (was on track to pay it of in the original loan time)... this was good cause of my job loss, but planning to start one next week at more than 2x the pay i had been making.

    Not sure what kind my dad had, but i think he said it had the ~4ishL v8... Green outside... like a normal 60's/70's vehicle. hehe
  23. loki
    i'm just curious about weight, power, and gearing compared to something like a mazda6...
  24. loki
    will this e-assist be like pre 2017..kinda like the BAS system, or more like the 2-mode transmissions? it doesn't say what tranny the 2.5L will get either...
  25. loki
    also been modified... if jacked up, why wouldn't they modify the ECM code to allow this to happen?
