Thumbs down Side-View Mirrors

Those have gotta be replaced. They look so puny and fragile. They also take away from the look of the car, in my opinion.

Looks like there's integrated turn signals in the mirrors, a-la Mercedes Benz. That would be pretty cool if they retained them.

Most cars have puny and fragile side mirrors. The only mirrors that are of a decent size are on SUV's and trucks. But these mirrors would look stupid on the RX-8.

I agree with Fritzman and also hope the integrated turn signals in the mirrors make it into production. That would be a nice safety feature.

I like the mirror, and I love the integrated signals. I would imagine they will have a kind of folding feature like most cars now have to avoid damage.

They do seem to be on a skinny stalk. Hope they are rigid enough to prevent vibration.
