Ha, that was my dream car when I was 16! Or an RX7, I think it was called.

The American rotary was/is the RX8. RX7 was banned in the US because it had a left hand drive and emissions regulations. But you might still be able to find one or two floating around

The rotary is kinda cool but there's not many mechanics that can work on them. So the Miata is probably the smarter choice.

Hmm? No, there were RX7s in the US. Emissions are tough for rotories, but they made it kinda work for a while.

I had an RX8. Loved it, but rotories give up their apex seals eventually. Have a Miata now.
