Gona be a long wait but i bet it's worth it... http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...tblast/RX9.jpg http://magazine.windingroad.com/wind...exterity&pg=49 |
wah....sipeh swee...mebbe if i start putting coins in the piggy bank now i may afford wan in 5 years..
|
Looks a bit euro... like the alfa brera.
Very diff from the rx7/rx8 light and nimble look. Probably its the trend going forward.:eyetwitch |
Side view is nice...drooool
|
i really dunno wat to think of it.
|
Its looks just have too many existing cars characteristics. Not like the 8 which have a distinct difference from the rest.

Facelifted rx8 can get pretty soon...hehe https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...wpost&t=135098 |
I dont like the front view.
Looks like an uglier version of the 350Z if you ask me and is much more of a muscle car/cruiser look rather than the sleek RX7 / RX8 look. Is this the one that will have the 1.6L rotary tho? I'm completely guessing but that car looks substantially heavier than our 8 and might be the main motivation for the increase in displacement for a better power to weight ratio. If it is heavier, can you imagine if it had our weedy Rennesis in it? It would be sooooo slow. But then again imagine the possibilities if we TC'd or SC'd the 1.6L rotary engine and put it into a lighter car like the 8 or the 7? Drool.... Better low end torque from the increase in displacement coupled with the forced induction = giant killer. Given that the Greddy kit for example tuned by RE will give roughly 250rwhp for a 6MT...it would not be inconceivable for the 1.6L rotary to put out 300+rwhp with a simple bolt on kit. 300+rwhp will roughly translate into nearly 400 bhp at the flywheel. I think a former member clocked 6.16s reliably with a TC'd 6MT and that was with only 240rwhp. So it stands to reason that a 300+ rwhp 8, provided you can put the power down with stickier & wider tires and handling mods to reduce wheelhop? You'd be looking at a car capable of sprinting to 100km/h anywhere from in the 5 second range. Thats plenty fast and I'd expect it to be lighting quick from a roll too. Haiz but thats just me daydreaming lah :) |
The facelift 8 has the same engine. The 1.6L won't make an appearance so soon. Century times of 6+ secs for hi-performance cars are nothing much to shout about. Even 5+ secs are just considered decent/good. Sub 5 secs then we're talking serious performance. Sub 4 secs then it's supercar level.

this, along with the new 8, are horrible design steps backwards imo |
