Have you guys seen this?

GotZoom

Looks like the love child of a Mazda 3 and a 350Z.

V_for_velocity

Those rims scare me.

8's enough

i heard that 05 is the last year for the rx8.in 06 it will be a rx7 with the same body style as the 8, except 2 door .has anyone else heard this ?

Gambit

^^No. Not gonna happen. they'd have to change way too much and it wouldn't be worth it, most people like the back doors


That picture looks interesting...i'm still deciding whether I like it. It does look a lot like a 3

takahashi

Make it the last year and our car being special. At least it will become a classic easier this way

8's enough

it's a 350z with a mazda front end -looks like ****.

TxRx8

I love those wheels.

Define the front a little bit and it should look better. It does look muscular just have the ***** to back it up. Those rims look like they could belong on an Escalade.

DreRX8

Where'd you get that pic from--its my first time seeing it--I like it. Its not FD but it looks good--I can look beyond the wheels.

Japan8

Sure that's a 7? Looks more like a concept car for a Mazda 3 based sporty coupe.... Mx6/ Probe replacement.

GotZoom

Agree 100%! Only 2 years of production? Doesn't make a whole lot of sense economically for Mazda, but it would be nice for the owners.

zthang

Omg that is saweeet!!

Shamblerock

That's it exactly. Nice photo Chop though! Nothing would make me happier than having them stop production of the RX8. Then it would be a real collectible in 25 years when my future grandson/daughter takes ownership of it!

Red Devil

Front grill reminds me of an Acura.

StphNieuw

Looks great... Curious as to what pricing would be

you heard wrong.

Xyntax

It looks plain and stupid to be even worthy of the RX-7 badge.

Old Old Old Pic

Pontiac called and said they wanted the front end of their G6 back. Yuck.

cas2themoe

Say anything about the specs?

Ike

Am I the only one that thinks this is a photocop, call me crazy but that sure does look like a scrunched G35c midsection with a spiced up Mazda front added on...

cas2themoe

That wouldn't be such a bad accusation. The only thing that stops me from believing that is that it looks like it was scanned from a book or magazine. But still doesn't mean it wasn't a chop job. Good Point. Who knows

it could have been photoshopped FOR the magazine it ran in.

markd

I haven't heard that either. I did hear that '06 represents the half-life of the RX-8, but I think someone here actually said it, and I can't validate that hearsay.
