2009 8?

I don't know if these are old photos, I didn't want to search all the old posts for it. Has anyone seen this new rx8? Did you see what they are doing to the interior? It seems like they tamed it down a lot, Im not sure if I like it or not. What do you think?

your looking at the red rx evolve which was the prototype of the rx-8. then the yellow one is the first prototype named rx-8 shown to the public in 2002. slight changes were from that to the production RX-8 which we have now.

Sorry, I thought this is a new version of our beautiful car. Thought the comparisons would be nice to see what we might have had

You know the RX8 is one of the few cars that actually came out looking better than the prototype ((besides for that cool *** reverse hood))

I don't think so

Its bullshit. Raise the rear bumper with those tiny exhaust!

And the hood opening another bullshit pipe dream.

zoom44, how disappointing - you got it wrong.

The red one is not the RX Evolv. it's the RX-8 concept I from 2001. The yellow one is the RX-8 concept II from 2002. The RX Evolv was an earlier concept from 1999. It was originally painted silver, but later repainted in red.

RX Evolv (1999)


RX-8 Concept (2001)

It's a shame the non-rusted hubs didn't make it into production.

those look like concept pix of the 8 before it went into production?

very nice. i've never seen these. u can see all the subtle changes made once it became a production vehicle.

thanks for sharing.
