RE-Amemiya 3-Rotor 650hp/200mph 2nd place race car in Turbo mag
Sorry, wasn't able to scan the magazine but below is a pic of the car. It's a T88 turbo Cosmo 20B with a Porsche Widebody kit (Porsche 997 hi/lo HID's). Wheels are 18x9.5/18x10.5. They just won 1st place and are currenty in 2nd overall for '06.

Why the hell give the RX7 the dammed look of a porsche. I hate that look. My compliments for the mechinical performance but I hate that look on our splendid 7s. Our car are a legend by their own means they don't need to copy now one.

Like Gto said, its not supposed to look like a porsche... Its supposed to be reminiscent of the old school Cosmo. However, its just a funny coincidence that Porsches and Cosmo front ends are so similar in style... I like it but I think the hood looks a little out of place.... Because everything else in the front is smooth and curvy... but the hood has so many vents that add too many lines.... I think it would look nicer with a stock looking hood or with 1 simple reverse vent...

I hate any kit that attempts to make a car look like another make of car, i.e.: all of those "Ferrari" kits for Pontiac Fieros. Totally lame, and cheapens the car.
I also hate any FD bodykit that changes the rear tailights. They are the nicest, most distinctive design detail on the car, and should not be painted body color, covered, or generally screwed around with.
