	This cannot be true. I own a 1984 Mazda RX-7 GSL-SE and
WAS insured by farmers. It has a 1.3 liter engine and is in their 
high preformance sports car group. A standard RX-7 has a 1.1 liter
engine and is in their sports car group. Now tell me they go by engine
size. True these are rotary engines and generate alot more HP / liter
than conventional piston engines, but do they know that ?
