That is a pretty good laugh. From the header (I didn't read any messages) I would bet all they have a rotary engine, AKA Wankel engine for you Mazda fans. From what I remember thay are (were?) popular for small aircraft due to the power to weight ratio. Also with the few moving parts they are great from a maintenance stand-point, but like everyhting there is a price. Namely they are expensive to manufacture. Couple that with the lack of any economies of scale, and...well lets just say I would expect GM to put a diesel in a Caddy before we see this hit the prime time.
