The RX-8 is gonna be awsome. I know that's not what your talking about, but still that car is gonna be sweet.

It's a four door hatchback, very popular everywhere else in the world because of it's inherent utility. I had a 5 door Mazda 626 Turbo. I liked it. It was very useful.

It's how they differentiate between a 4 door with a hatchback or a trunk.

Trunks are not are 5th door, Hatchbacks are. Thus a 5 door is a 4 door hatchback, rather than a 4 door with Trunk (which would just be a 4 door, since the trunk is assumed :p).



Geforcekj, it's an engine design no one but mazda really uses.
When they work they are extremely effective, but it's bloody hard to get them to pass emissions, and they have several problems (most notately failing apex seals):
