this should be interesting

 

Very cool.

 

Sweet. Wonder if its a closer-to-production Kabura?

 

So what "Future" year is this car gonna be aimed at? The year 2055? or 2097? One thing I havent liked about their concepts recently is their far off well targets. Give me something that will most definatly be coming out. I know some of their previous concepts have already worked their way into the Mazda line up but a cue here or there that is subtle to me isnt worth all the hype.

 

very intresting!

 

Study doesn't sound like prototype, but I'll take what I can get.

 

each of the flow design concepts has been closer to a production than the previous one. they unveiled them that way on purpose

 

I really liked seeing some of the "flow" design aspects translated into the '08 Mazda6. It has really made that car beautifuly balanced in apearance.

 

On YA Doug!...

I personally think that Tokyo Motor Show should be "very" interesting..in October.
Apart from the new 6

 

Kabura...Heavily Modified..

 

That would be sweet! Show of a 2500lbs turbocharged "concept" with the 2010 rotary engine just to make people drool and show that the rotary means business.

 

We can only hope so

nice to see you posting againg

 

I have a feeling that anything Mazda puts out will impress me, if I set my hopes for rotary aside.

I still cannot get over how stunningly beautiful the new mazda 6 is. I know the backend is a bit sebring like, but come on, compare it to cars on the road and the current trend in design, then you'll start to appreciate how nice the car is. And I've said it before, the AWD option will be the deciding factor for buyers.

And this news is exciting, if Mazda can successfully capture a bigger market with the new 6, they can make good use of the profit to make a killer sports car.

I dont think we should isolate any part of the car an say is ugly, I think you should look at the complete packege, as the complete packege it is the best looking sedan in its class

 

Any updates? Any idea when we see the car?

 

I like helping people so let me help you a little like I already have 3 others. There is NOTHING similar between the backends. Thank you.

 

let the rotary dreams begin....

omg its gonna be a kabura with a 1.6l three rotor twin turbo and weight 1900 lbs and get 30 mpg city and get great emissions! blah blah blah blah.....


someone kill me

Should be interesting to see what Mazda has in store for this.

 

It looks like Mazda debuted the new Mazda 6 and is also showing the Sassou.

Nice to see Mazda is just going to show the same old 40th Anniversary model.

 

i did email the author of the article for clarification but have not heard back yet

 

I would love to think you're right and they have something special planned that they are keeping tight lipped about. I just figured everyone would want to be as disappointed as I was when I found that link. I guess today is the official public opening of the show so we'll find out soon enough. :beers:
