God I love pushrod suspension setups! Engine bay looks a bit hair though. Not very clean or polished.

Too bad we'll only see the Mazdaspeed stickers and maybe the emblem on a road car.

The only thing that bugs me is the nose...

Hopefully Mazda will come out with this or something else to fill the mazda spot in the new "Super Car" category that is filling up the streets.

Audi has the R8

Nissan has the GTR

Good god that thing is gorgeous. I think I just came a little.

I like all the little rotor details, like the exhaust and the interior details. Looking at the car is like combining Where's Waldo with sex.

I noticed that, too, but I didn't understand why the two seats were different at the headrest.

I think it will be a slightly larger version of this:

2 rotor (16X?) NA and turbo

3 rotor Option??

I know it will handle like a dream once as they use the newer Mazda test track in Japan to tweak the suspension.

I've always thought about dropping a Renesis into an Exige, but its kind of unnecessary considering how awesome the original engine in it is.
