If I'm not mistaken it is the RX-8, but then again, I CAN'T WATCH IT AS I DON'T HAVE CABLE OR ANYTHING. I'll have to hope somebody puts it up on Youtube or something.

Says 93-95 Rx7, so no 1st gens I think. Too bad.

I tuned in for the show a few days back when they featured MGA's and Spitfires. I was like "Oh cool!" turned it to speed, and it was this dude driving an EVO. Wtf?

So I watch it for like 2 minutes and he goes on about how it was featured in The Fast and the Furious, how there are so many computers in the car doing everything etc etc. I turned it off when he said "Now THIS is a car!" Nay, that is a VEHICLE. A car is different than a vehicle.

Now I remember why I don't watch TV.

what the hell happened? they sold out and probably got paid by Mazda to showcase the rx8 instead of the 3rd gen rx7

i just watched it, well like 3 hrs ago actually when it came on lol, and it was shit, some facts were cool, but other than that, the show was pointless, the dude is pretty cool tho lol. i guess i was expecting way more than that :(

Just arrived home late from a long day at work. Was looking forward to possibly seeing the first generation Rx-7 featured on this show. What a disappointment.

Thanks Ray for the link to the show specifics.

sorry to hear that Mike. if i had saw this earlier i would have recorded it on the dvr....

I think they over-exaggerated the performance of the RX8 a bit too much on the show. Plus no first gens!!!
