er... the front IS a one-piece airdam, so to speak.
A flat airdam like on the IMSA package makes the mass ahead of the front wheels look a bit heavy for the car, IMHO, so I went for a shape that, in general, maintains the wedgy front of a 1st gen without the front-end lift.

I think that the design has potential. I'm hoping against hope that Mazda will give us an AFFORDABLE rotary coupe in the near future. The RX-8 is looking like it will crack $40k here in Canuckville, which is about...$40k out of my range 
If Mazda engineered a coupe about the size of the 1st gen, with a detuned Renesis, RWD...I'd be in heaven. That would be worth going into debt for. The original concept of the RX-7, as an affordable sports/gt car should be brought back IMHO.

mantis, just my taste, i think it looks like it needs an air damn, color in the rear lights, and... 
something else.. good job though, its a start, just my opinion for what its worth, COMPLETELY not bashing your design though, just not my taste
abeomid, is that the mariah mode 1? it looks sweet, like that blue color too man, anymore pictures of that badboy?
