Another vehicle that needs rotary power! ;-)

Quite remarkable. Unfortunately it will never make it in the US as it does not meet
DOT car rules for all sorts of things let alone side impact.  My 1973 RX2 weighed
about 2000 pounds. My 2004 RX8 weighs 3000 pounds with the same engine weight
and a smaller body thanks to the draconian  and do good wacko Democrats :) This extra
weight results in 15% worse MPG at 60 MPH where rolling resistance is equal
to aerodynamic drag.

The Renault Clio I rented in Europe this year is about the same
size as the RX2 and larger than the RX8 with more room weighed 2100 pounds.
I don't think the death rate is any higher in Europe despite the lack of speed limits
on the Autobahn. The Clio would do 180 clicks. Renault claims 63 MPG for the Clio.
I am sure not at 180 clicks :)
