The above is not of the secret cars in the garage, but the previous prototype tested outside

Here are some more from another guy:

Man, finally some new pics of my car. Did anyone notice the small apoiler on the rear of the trunk? Car looks to kill. Also, no color coordinated pieces on top of the dash. I can't wait for my car.

DID ANYONE NOTICE THE SUNROOF??

RX-7_16

Sputnik

Every year, it's a nationwide gathering of RX7 and rotary enthusiasts.

Your wish is my command. You can see it in this pic: http://images.rotarynews.com/images/...l/mvc00673.jpg
Below I've pointed it out, and "trimmed some of the fat."



Strange combination of cars in that garage! I see a new Nissan Altima, a 2nd generation Miata, the RX-8, and I think a Mazda6. One of these cars is not like the others...

In this picture (http://images.rotarynews.com/images/...l/mvc00672.jpg) you can see what the tail lights look like on the RX-8 in the dark (its the red one pulling into the garage in the first few pictures.)

thanks Grimmy now i see. it seems that one is wearing a bra. so it could be the one from the spy pics with the 16" wheels. what do you think the black car is right in front of the silver on?

Grimace

That's the Miata, I believe.

miata35

The car that we see before we see the rx-8 is most definatley a Mazda Miata, no question. On the other side of the 8 is a black car, with a taller stance than the 8. My guess is that the black car is a new Mazda 6 sedan. By brittening the image, the colors are easier to differenciate. This makes the full shape of the tailight visible, which is comparible to the u.s. spec. mazda 6. Look at the below photo comparison:

Also, by using certain photoshop techniques, We can clear and lighten up the braw covering the rx-8 front grill. In all the pictures of this thread, the braw has been to dark to determine much about the rx-8's front structure. By desaturating certain values in the pictures, I have made it easier to tell what the lower front bumper will look like. The openings on either side of the grill are much wider, and it apears that they are lower than the grille itself, making them seem to be like the drawing from sevenstock5. Also, there is a small lip or ledge thing underneath the grill, possibly holding the signature rotary shaped intake. Take a look at the picture:

And for the grand finally, here is my interpritation of what the rx-8 will look like, without the rotary shaped thing cause I cant draw it. Lower, longer intakes and a slightly wider grille opening:

Here's my photoshop of how I really want my RX-8 to be. I did one like this a while ago, but, I don't know how possible it will be. I would love a metallic charcoal color, but it doesn't look promising. I guess Black or Titianium would suffice. Since my brother is seriously considerind an RX-8 also, maybe I can convince him to get a yellow one and we can swap side view mirror panels somehow. That along with yellow trimmed interior would be pretty cool IMO.

You guys in America are so lucky! I haven't seen the Rx-8 once in Britain.

Okay, a little late, but here are my Sevenstock photos. Only took a few, as we were there a very short time.

FYI there are no RX-8 photos. It hadn't occured to me to show up 1 day early.
