  • Would make a mean pencil sharpener.

  • sad but it has not much potential it need scompered to the other engine huge amounts of fuel and in our days its all about fuel economy bla blabla

  • 40 years now

  • yea its too bad they haven't developed it any further than it is now. it has a lot of potential

  • GM, Ford, Mercedes, and many others licensed the technology, but none ever made it out of the prototype stage. Mazda has been the only one to produce a rotary powered car in the last 20+ years.

  • yea Wankel (the inventor of rotary) originally worked for mercedes and developed the idea for the rotary, mercedes used the rotary for a while than mazda bought the idea years later. does anyone know if mercedes is still using the rotary on any models?

  • talk about cheap shit

  • thats so badass. this is the first time i see a real one..not just a visual effect.

  • no way its a fuckin spirograph i had one as a kid.
