MAZDA RX-9 concept, huh? realy already?
I came across a russian page, (or something) I can't read the crap... but it has some concept drawings, oh well you guys be the judges
http://hvtm.totalcar.hu/index.php3?ID=9000&carID=679
so is this the way it is going? are we only gonna get a 1GEN car and then mazda moves to the 9?
I always ponder... I love my 8... yes I do... but why is it I feel like someone chopped its ********* off?
where is the turbo? and why in the heck isn't the 20B in production in america? I feel a renesis with three rotors would be fantastic and much faster and reliable than mitsu's or nissan's V6 offerings

Why no 3-rotor? Cause it will eat more gas than a Viper not to mention probably won't pass emisssions.

It's Hungarian, not Russian
I liked this version better
These pictures are from a design contest that was held quite a a while ago. This was already posted on the forum, along with a convertible RX-8 design study and others as well.

Here is a quick translation for the text under that pic:
"I wanted to create a bit more sporty Mazda than the RX-8 - one that carries the lines and proportions of the RX-7. I used the Mazda 3 prototype as well, because that was quite sporty in a few details. This will certainly also have a tuned version so that it fits into the series."
That was the pic I posted...

Old, but I still really like it.
My guess is that the second gen. RX-8 would be for the 2010 model year since the average life-span of a model is 6 years. Although the 2006 hump (if it is a 6 year span) didn't really get a freshening IMO. I would guess the RX-8 gets a mild interior and exterior face lift, new wheels, and maybe a few hp or mpg before we see a new generation

4th batch : Apr 03'
i think it is better for the New RX 7 reborn design, because it has 2 doors why don't we start to photoshop it with all our RX 8 kits, maybe we can get something about its new look
