What happened to the RX-01?

I downloaded this clip on Kazaa about the RX-01. I saw the video and logo of mazda was the older logo. So I'm guessing this clip is several years old when the RX-01 was a concept(i think). They were talking about it having 200+ horsepower, really cool design and what not. What ever happened to it? Did it eventually lead to the design of the RX-8?

Yeah, the '96 RX-01 concept kind of evolved into the '99 RX-EVOLV concept...which then morphed into the production RX8.

RX-01


RX-EVOLV

The RX-01 was supposed to be a cheap, NA replacement to the high cost FD RX-7. It also was the first car to feature what is now the Renesis, then called the MSPRE...
