Ugly design: New RX7

300hp and 5 sec 0-60 is pretty nice though!

To me it looks like a 350 or 370z with hood scoop and a spoiler. I like it.

Ah the car doesn't look all that bad, but I'm still not a fan. As far as the power & 0-60 yes sounds good, but let me see the proof first.

Its prob a very far off concept, and will never look anything like that, the front looks somewhat o.k., seems like a mix of an fd and an rx8 but a bit more futuristic, im not crazy about it, but nor would I be too mad if it looked something like that, someone somewhere will like it, I dont plan on getting one, but maybe the engine...

Whatever it looks like, I'll be buying one regardless.

Not as impressed w/ the specs though....didn't the FD do 0-60 in 4.9 w/ 255hp ?

okay even though this thread should have been closed a **** ton time ago, if information is going to be thrown it might as well be a little more accurate. This is the prototype that mazda has pretty much solidified their concept on thus far. It probably wont change much after this. Mods feel free to close thread on me lol.
