This really is a beautiful example of what's possible. I'd sell some of my stuff to get one.

ive been thinking about this pic off and on



and im pretty sure after thinking about it that its not a single sketch but a photochop of elements from several pics/sketches and chops.

the glass for windshield and roof is what started me thinking. i believe its actually from a pic of the kabura or taiki. the reflections of the 3 lights remind me of pics of the taiki from tokyo like this one


the wheels i think are from the Ryuga



the front obviously referring to the Mazdaspeed models done by Kenstyle at the AutoSalon

Looks like a giant stomped an rx-8 - flattened and got creased lines, like a stomped Coke can.

that's a good thing, the rx-8 has always been too tall and it's lines aren't sharp enough.

^ yep, if there was another 7 or whatever next rotary car will come out, I would want to see a very low-slung, no-compromises, hatchback-equipped sport coupe...
