New pics of Nissans (Infiniti) RX-8 copy.....

S

looks like a 3way between a rx8, mazdaspeed 6, and a chrysler 300. and it didnt get the good qualitys of any.


ewwwwwww

beers

You know what they say, immitation is the highest form of flattery.

They must like the Saturn too then. :Freak_ani

I agree with Rotarygod...it's going to happen eventually. At least we can all say that the RX8 is the first one to have both sides with "suicide" doors :rock: the rest are just imitators.

does that car come with 50:50 weight distribution? does it rev to 9500rpm? is it lightweight? i think i prefer the original mazda RX8. It's better looking!

Other than the suicide doors, all I see is a copy of the Chrysler 300.

Shouldn't this be in the General Automotive forum? :confused:

That's one ugly car.

Big Sister? Doesn't look like a real sports car to me.

That car is so ugly!! how dare they even say in the same sentence they got anything from the RX8... same deal as the 350 Z and why I did not get one..no lines or curves...looks like a egg on wheels. and that thing looks like a shoe box with wheels. :rollingla

That car is sooooooo ugly.... They should put headlights on the back and make it drive backwards.

That car is sooooo ugly...... When it came off the assembly line, the production worker slapped the designer.

That car is sooooo ugly...... The Honda Element points at it and laughs. (Ha, Ha)

That car is sooooo ugly...... they will have to put pork chops inside it to get dogs to ride along.

beers

That car is so ugly.... If it were in an accident, you would never know the difference.

I think it's Japanese pretty (Including the color) in a Eunos Cosmo kind of way. The styling more fits their market than ours in my opinion.
Paul.

im not impressed

Needs clear corners; that fixes everything as everybody knows. Don't these so-called designers know anything? ;)

This car has so many "me too" elements to it it's nauseating. What happened to the good old days when car companies took pride in making their cars look different from their competition? That's one of the things I like about Mazda, and especially the RX8; it's a great, original design and no one would mistake it for another manufacturer's car.

for me to poop on

dam that thing is oogly!!

word up. the rx-8's originality is a big piece of what makes it alluring to me. i think more car companies should be designing to set themselves apart from the rest. maybe they feel like making too large leaps in design will scare off a lot of buyers (who for the majority probably ACTUALLY WANT to "fit in")

imo mazda is doing a good job of creating a family look within their lineup that is also unique.

Can't beat my mazda with that!

that rear end is just awful. can't see how anyone anywhere can like something like that.

Yeah, all the older cars, with both side suicide doors, all the pickup trucks around before the 8. The 8 is an imitator, it didn't invent the door style.

haha
true
is it fair to say the rx-8 re-invented the suicide doors? anyway some other subtleties in this nissan design pay poor homage to the rx-8 i think.

I'm not that mazda biased and really like nissan 350z, but that is hideious.

I'm getting deja vu for some reason...

well...the rx-8 didn't invent suicide doors, but I think it was the first to feature them without the the b-pillar

That thing looks like a 3 way between a 350Z, last gen M45 and a Range Rover, not very pretty at all. It does not come with a Rotary and they already have a 2+2 coupe in the G35, so now they decided that they want to get in on the "freestyle" door idea. I doubt that it would be highly successful and it would hurt 350z and G35C sales more than it would the 8.

I quote Moe from the Simpsons:

"ive been called pug fugley, mug ugly, and fug ugly, but never ugly ugly."

that car is UGLY UGLY! If they wanna compete with the RX8, you have to make it at LEAST look good. That car is flat, and just "meh" they took too many ideas from too many cars and stuck it all together with krazy glue.

Car is ugly but the only redeeming point is the engine. I'd love to have the 3.5L you find many of Nissan's cars. I don't consider that thing a sports car either, almost not even a coupe.

too bulky for me

well...the rx-8 didn't invent suicide doors, but I think it was the first to feature them without the the b-pillar

Saturn SC-2

omg *gasp* its hideous

In order to get me to drive that, you'd have to put an American Flag over it and ask me to take one for my country!

FUGLY, no one would buy that...then again people do drive Crossfires.

I even feel sad for Z owners..

ewwwww, that sports "coupe" looks extraordinarily high and bulky.

i just spit up a little in my mouth

Are we jealous?

Are we jealous?
Jealous of what? That Mazda didn't make an ugly ass car? I think not. :nono:

looks like a cheesier saturn...

ugly it is!
like a saturn, yes!
sell as well as an 8. They better hope not.
December, and no 2006 8, and most like no FMC in 06

that is pretty disgusting
