I can't believe nobody found THIS RX-8 look alike....
 
This aint no far fetched "hey it kinda looks like 8" thread. Check out the Ford Losis. I don't have any more info on the car, but from what I've read, and what you can see, it's RX-8 based.

The RX-8 01-07-2006 02:00 AM

We did... Search for Ford Iosis or something along those lines... I believe it had a different name.

Oh wow... this does look like the 8. From fenders and fender grille and body lines, its an 8. Rear doors are bigger though.

shaolin 01-07-2006 02:15 AM

Dammit I searched for Losis and nothing came up.

shaolin 01-07-2006 02:16 AM

Oh damn...I just noticed IOSIS not LOSIS...sorry...ok you can delete this thread now I guess.

Raptor2k 01-07-2006 02:40 AM

Looks good. Definitely looks similar too. Biggest difference? The hood is twice as big as the rx8's =)

Chrisbert 01-07-2006 10:36 AM

What a great car name...

Ford Loses. LOL!!!

Doesn't Ford own Mazda?

Arx8me 01-07-2006 11:08 AM

Looks are looks, if it doesn't have a rotary then its not a RXanything :)

DOMINION 01-07-2006 08:05 PM

Too bad Ford's too braindead to release anything that nice. They might actually sell well without rebates - we all know Ford doesn't actually want to sell cars, so they'll do something to screw it up.

Betcha it ends up like the Charger (scroll down - hope I don't get banned for spam!)

MarWar80 01-07-2006 08:55 PM

Just cuz I didn't post it doesn't mean I never saw it. Anyways, if that things comes with a v8 consider it sold! Torque here I come. Just what the 8 is missing.

Looks like the love child of a G35, the 8, and the bat mobile.

Thing is that its already too late! Everyone knows that Ford makes pretty crappy stuff expect for there trucks. People would be too skeptical about buying cars that look too high tech coming from the US. I know Ford makes Mazda But not everyone knows that.

Maybe it will throw bigger flames than the 8 does too! :ylsuper:

allmotorRX8 01-08-2006 12:07 AM

the rear reminds me of the new lexus

zaglo6204 01-09-2006 06:47 PM

those wheels look pretty lambo-ish....ive seen other lambo copycats (same style rim) on other recent concept vehicles, too

that is simply not true. that have ownership but they dont make the cars. except the mazda 6 which is built at the plant where the mustangs are built. but the mazda6 is built locally in each region. and its still a Mazda platform.

Apparently you are included in that group. Ford does not 'make' Mazda....they own 33% of Mazda stock making Ford the majority shareholder of Mazda.

DOMINION 01-10-2006 10:39 PM

Yup thats why on the window sticker its states that like 96% of this car is built in Japan

BlueEyes 01-11-2006 01:25 AM

I wonder what 4% is built outside Japan, and where.
