So if you haven't heard, Mazda has announced that there will be some new concept car unveiled at NAIAS 2003 on Tuesday morning. Since they're really trying to bolster their sporty "zoom zoom" image these days, it will most likely be either a new RX-7 or some kind of new/modified Miata. Which one do you think it will be?

GODDAMMIT!!!! i read the quote that Sputnik had posted, straightish from the mouth of Boowana speaking words from the mouth of the horse called Mazda, that the concept is suppost to continue with Mazda's commitment to challenging the expected in "concept or packaging" or something (my memory's still foggy, i only just woke up...)
so, because the 7 is about as traditional as you can get, i wonder if that's really is, i have serious doubts now... unless they changed it dramatically, which in that case i wouldn't give a f*ck 'cause it's a 7, and fast is fast. :D

I would stop well short of calling the RX7 "traditional"...

I wan't it to be an RX-7, but I bet not. If there is an RX-7 concept my guess would be that they would show it in Tokyo this fall.

Ok, those of you that are guessing "none of the above", could you post exactly what you think it could be?
