I wasn't aware they still made them and can't remember the last time I saw one. It's kind of amazing how that whole type of car has disappeared (the Nissan Z, Supra and 944 being other examples), they used to be really popular. My theory is they morphed into into cars that were neither fish nor fowl. They were too big and heavy to be considered sports cars and yet didn't offer the utility of a high performance sedan like an M3, as an example. And I think they priced themselves a good ways beyond the demographics that would be incline to buy them. Mazda sure gave it a shot, but rotary engines are pretty much considered a failed technology. Given some of the drawbacks I'm curious why you'd want one?
