what a Wankel !

[Otis]

The Wankel is German, after all - Felix Wankel, etc. - but given the clear Japanese connection (Mazda), one can only help but wonder if this has something to do with the role-play thing - you know, Japanese on the inside, vintage German on the outside. It's all the rage in Japan. Somehow, however, it just doesn't seem to work - there are simply too many things that are fundamentally wrong with the concept.

In any event, if you're going to do something like the MazdaWankel car, you have to put the engine in sideways. Everyone knows that. Just look in the compartments of any of these role-players - it always runs sideways. Always.
