I noticed that they didn't call this car a RX-7 in any part of that article. Who knows what it will be called.

It looks like there is room for a backseat. Do you think so? If so,

so do you think the kabura is still a separate car or is this an evolution of the kubura?

The big news is not the possible RX-7 that is still a long time away, the big news is THE NEW RX-8 WITH LARGER ENGINE THIS WINTER!!!

I think this is a Kabura together with the other desings, as we have seieing with the other cars this is more a desing filosofy than an actual car, so if the Kabura gets built it will be derive from this car as well as a new rx-7( or what ever they call it)

Well it better have enough power to match other new performance vehicles by Toyota/Lexus, Honda (LOL, accord coupe), Nissan, etc. It's ugly too.

If you end up saying the rear looks like a Sebring or something STUPID, I'm going to euthanize you.

^^ LOL! I really want to see the rear. The front really looks like it's from a Cadillac in my opinion.

the front needs some work, but remember how ugly the Yellow prototype rx-8s front was, and how weird the rx-evolve front was?

yeah the rx8 came a long way in just a few short years prior to production. Just fine tuning the appearance.

The pic on that page just looks like the Kabura to me.

Good news in the words though.

Like Rotary Crazy said, that front end can be integrated right into the Kabura. Neither front end will make it to production.
