dozer 01-15-2010, 04:04 PM just kiddin mija, the furai
its more of a street car
JRichter 01-15-2010, 04:12 PM Where's the poll?
.
Tuff one. I would have to drive them both at Circuit de la Sarthe to decide. As far as looks the Furai gets the nod. Sound would probably go to the 787B.
ZumnRx8 01-15-2010, 04:13 PM POLL IS UP! & Videos so you can picture yourself driving! :yesnod: I love the FURAI styling!, but I'm sorry... the 787B PAWNS!!! Its a beast with simple styling :yumyum: I Voted 787B FTW. A 3 rotor RENNY does sound nice though..
JinDesu 01-15-2010, 04:27 PM Furai - For the capability of bringing the rotary back to the spotlight

mike[piston eater] 01-15-2010, 05:06 PM what now furai fanbois
Banilejo 01-15-2010, 05:15 PM 787 hands down, it won lemans and has timeless styling. I love the Furai but its not a real race car and it'll probably look outdated in few years. Plus the 787 is just badass!
renesisgenesis 01-15-2010, 05:18 PM Well let's see, I think I'll take the one that won Le Mans. The other is just a concept car and has virtually no incentive to actually perform that well. The 787B we KNOW kicks ass.
05rex8 01-15-2010, 05:22 PM This thread is stupid.

ZumnRx8 01-15-2010, 08:11 PM 787B! "The Champ is here!" TRUE RACE CAR WITH BIGGER BRASS, and a deeper voice:)
fuztupnz 01-15-2010, 08:15 PM 787B all the way. They're both going to be track only, why would i not take the one that won Le Mans.
JinDesu 01-15-2010, 08:24 PM Pfffft! I'm dredging this thread back up once the Furai wins something!
JUST YOU WATCH!
ZumnRx8 01-15-2010, 08:27 PM ^ When after the FURAI win, do you want us to wake you up?! :rollingla!!! LULZ!!
mike[piston eater] 01-15-2010, 08:29 PM furai has won the biggest illusion award it never happend
JinDesu 01-15-2010, 08:31 PM You people are mean. MEAN!
I'm never sending you people cookies like I was gonna anymore
JantzenRX-8 01-15-2010, 08:43 PM The Furai is pure sex.. I can't believe this poll is so close.
I mean the 797B is a great race car but the Furai just takes the cake in all categories.

LULZ! "Its what we do"
The Furai is pure sex.. I can't believe this poll is so close.
I mean the 797B is a great race car but the Furai just takes the cake in all categories.
Except the category of most importance ... "Winning!" :rofl: & BTW 797? epic fail! "Its like calling another girls name out in bed!"
mike[piston eater] 01-15-2010, 08:52 PM furai is a figment of all your imaginations lay off the drugs kids
rafaga 01-15-2010, 09:31 PM I don't care much about proving I'm the fastest, but I care more about proving I'm the sexiest....Furai for me.
JantzenRX-8 01-15-2010, 09:37 PM LULZ! "Its what we do"
Except the category of most importance ... "Winning!" :rofl: & BTW 797? epic fail! "Its like calling another girls name out in bed!"
LOL, that's why i said "great race car" I knew someone would call me out on it :lol2:
alfy28 01-18-2010, 04:18 PM dont get me wrong, i like the furai. but i just dont excited over concept cars. i like the real deal, and the 787b proved to be the real deal. but its nice to have dreams, i had tons of dreams, when i was 6.
mike[piston eater] 01-18-2010, 04:19 PM furai fanbois die
ZumnRx8 01-18-2010, 06:13 PM ^ lol @ Alfy "when i was six"
Mike with the dagger to the heart!
zoom44 01-19-2010, 01:33 PM that depends- who tuned the 787b. I know Jim Mederer is the one who tuned the Furai with e85. so until i hear who tuned the 787b i'm going with the Furai.
ZumnRx8 01-19-2010, 08:59 PM Why the 787B?????
(GOOGLE)
In 1991, the Mazda 787B became the first Japanese car, and first non-piston engine car to win the 24hr Le Mans race. The car's powerful 700hp 4-rotor R26B rotary engine had such state-of-the-art features as variable-valves, triple plug ignition, and parallel port injection. Mazda entered 3 of these cars in the race, and car No.55 was driven by the team of Volker Weidler, Bertrand Gachot, and Johnny Herbert. Starting from 19th place on the grid, this 787B fought its way up, overcoming perennial contenders Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, Peugeot, and the 1990 champion Jaguar XJR12 to complete a record 4,923km and take the win.
Any chance they will sell me 1? :)

8 Maniac 01-19-2010, 09:06 PM I would pick furai if it was something I'd be regularly driving around. No matter how awesome the 787b is, I wouldn't like that look when driving around town. The furai just looks like a beautiful exotic street car.
For a track car I would have to pick the 787b.
ac3mastuh 01-19-2010, 09:08 PM 787b for pure history and pedigree, the furai is awesome but once it wins le mans, then ill reconsider

longpath 01-19-2010, 09:25 PM I chose the Furai because I try to avoid cars likely to kill me, and 700hp in something as light as the 787B, with my limited skills is suicide waiting to happen.
User24 01-19-2010, 09:28 PM Why would you want something with Jamaican olympics colors. The black color is more modern. Obviously furais.
ZumnRx8 01-19-2010, 09:41 PM I chose the Furai because I try to avoid cars likely to kill me, and 700hp in something as light as the 787B, with my limited skills is suicide waiting to happen.
LOL!!
as far as I know.. rotaries are banned from only 1 sport... F1 (DAM CRY BABIES), correct?
ZumnRx8 01-19-2010, 09:49 PM EVERYONE WHO IS A TRUE ROTARY FAN SHOULD READ these fellow rotary comments.....
