2012 Rx-7 FE3S...
We all know about the 16x 1.6L Rotary Engine with it's direct injection, aluminum side housings, 300hp with 35mpg est. We know about the price est 25k. Little is known about the car it's self. All we have are possible pre- production concepts, and Photoshop photos. Most of then suck in my opinion. I would like a RX7 that's not a Hyundai or Nissan wannabe! It's hard to figuring out what's going to be the next RX-7 because of the new RX-9.
I believe the new rx-7 will look like the Taiki being the 16x was introduced in this concept.
I pray to God for something like this one!

The 7 is dead, the thought of a rebirth needs to lay down and let go. The Rx-9 would be a better concept for the simple fact that the two aren't compairable. Just like the 7 and the 8 aren't compairable other than the engine.

The R&T rendering I think holds its plausibility the best of them all. Take a look at the 6, the 3, the 5, the 2, all have similar looking headlights/overall front ends, the R&T car takes the best idea based upon that. I will say that if they do something similar to the R&T rendering, get rid of the stupid rear quarter window, no 7 has ever had on of those, just door glass, b-pillar, and then hatch glass/rear-side glass (think SA/FB).
As for the blue car, yeah, it's pretty, but that's all. Anyone who has seen a vehicle produced and that knows the strict guidelines that cars have to go through to come into the US would know that if that car WERE produced, it wouldn't be offered here, because that b-pillar has no way of having the kind of structural integrity that a rollover would need to sustain passenger safety. Great idea, but not plausible. And again, for those thinking that an FD based car is a great idea, in a world of innovation, why in the hell would a "completely new model" get based upon a chassis design from the 90's? A great performing chassis no less, but old and out dated when compared to new technologies.
My $.02.
