The closest thing to the FD is the roofline and door, which stands to reason.
It's great looking. I'd drive it. It's not quite the timeless design of the FD, but I'd say mission accomplished in terms of an updated, aggressive design that looks like a current Mazda.
I wonder where the project really is in terms of development.
Something like that... they just need to offer it as a kit car like factory five does. build a tube chassis and body panels. have it accept the engine, transmission, and suspension from the FD. And I bet they could sell that for 10-15k

Yep again though good luck building it for anywhere near 15k
Its about time someone with a little more conservative taste than Amemiya San starts doing full rebodies for the FD chassis to generate interest in the old platform that still has so much potential.
I would rather see what could be done on the RX-8 chassis (something Maserati Alfieri like?) as its more abundant/more modern features/cheaper and possibly even higher potential.
Hey guys looking through the forums, didn't even see this until this evening. Yes I am in the midst of creating this as a kit. Like some of you have speculated it will be quit expensive when done but it will include new headlight housings with Hella bi-xenons and new LED tail lights and to be honest that is a huge expense.
I already have two customers waiting for the first few kits, so feel free to further the discussion here or through pm.
Its not at the stage that I want to start getting too specific but when that time comes I will make sure to do a build thread.
it looks spectacular , Chances are just like the rocket bunny kit .. a few people will buy it and it will come out to car shows , and than hide in a garage for every other day .
