Just tricky lighting.
The car is the same Velocity Red anyone can buy at a dealership.

(I saw it in person at the show).

 

Yeah thats right go ahead and check this thing out. http://www.rsportscars.com/eng/cars/rx8_motorsport.asp Supposedly 362 BPH and 250 LB FT Torque.... Amazing isnt it... Well once this thing comes out... if it does! I will surely be getting it ASAP.

 

yeah it was amazing the first time I saw it :p
and the second :p
this time.....it is still pretty amazing

I like the wallpapers though

 

let me be the first to say.......REPOST! Try and use the search feature. ( top menu second from the right)

 

Well the only reason i posted it is because i found it last night. Didnt know there was already a post made about it. Anyways it deserves to be posted over and over again if it post those #'s

 

Cool, thanks!

Reposts are useful!

Shame they aren't going to build it.

 

well--it shows promise--I have no doubts that Mazda will boost the RX8 down the line--it may be a coule of years though.

 

Why is there such a large diff between the power of this version and the US spercharged version? Is it all just in the tuning?

362hp out of a turbocharged rx8. Looks like it's no longer a question of if, but merely when.

 

Great article.....best one so far!

 

still no engine bay pics

 

... but finally a full article on this "phantom car". Great read!

 

yes

 

man!, no dyno's, videos, or any 0-60 times.

looks promising, I know they've tested it, why can't they post those numbers?

 

nice article. nice car ...

 

i wasn't aware they had any real numbers on the turbo..i read the article again and it just says "projected" next to the HP and Torque numbers. hehe but i can dream they are real..lol :D

 

I am not sure f you guys have seen this or not but check it out. The Aussies have put a single turbo adding 52% hp.

362 Hp RX-8

 

merged tigster's thread with this one

 

Wow in the first pic it has RX-8 down there and I like the black look on the red:D.

 

All these FI kits avail in other areas makes me tingle.....Nice concept, I prefer R&T RX8 but still well built car. Gives some promise towards increasing HP in future.

 

LOL!

I hope so.

 

"So what's the purpose of the Mazda Extreme Car RX-8? To me, it looks like just a bunch of smoke and mirrors, with little real substance. Sure, it'll run fine for awhile. But if it pops a moter every 5000 miles, it has no real value, and is nothing more than a marketing stunt."
