RX7 in the Currnet

Reading The Sun this morning (as the evil bitch i call a missus stole my PSP) there was an artical on British Designers and what they are working on, anyway the man who in charge of the new MX5 team is said to be working on the new RX7!!!!!!

so finger crossed this is a good sign!

also talks about his brother Ian Callum who is dehind the new Jag XK - i had on on pre order til i saw the final car, did not live up to ecpectations!

The front has grown on me though--I'd definately get one as my grand tourer.

So if I had the keys to one, Magellan, and I was going to give it to go you for free, you wouldn't want it? lol

P.S. Mike, how do you have almost 9000 posts in two years? That's a amazing.

Meh. The XK is ugly and the new MX-5 design is boring. If they are gonna make a new RX-7, they'd better bring back Wu Huang Chin (the man who designed the FD).

Not that it really matters, this is just pure BS speculation anyway.

I wish they would keep the RX7 in the past and make something with a different name. I like RX7s being legends.

Speak for yourself. I've been wanting a 7 with FD performance while retaining the reliability of my FC
