2001 RX8 Concept car
 

And we are going to keep on SPINNING!!!!!! (puts fist in the air) :bluesuit: Never thought I'd own a concept car. Next time someone asks me "what kind of car is that" I going to be like "its a concept car by MAZDA". :rollingla, the sad part is they'd probably believe me too. :)

Every car had a concept. Do you think that designers just went "oh lets build... THIS!" and start manufacturing by the thousands without response from the market?

I must add, those are sick glasses Felix has.

it was a joke.

haha

& bored outta my mind at the moment..........

This just made me love my car even more. Nice job Felix

I kinda want the forward opening hood tho.

That probably never makes it into production cars for a lot of reasons. But I agree, it looks amazing. It's exotic without being lame & played out (lambo doors).

I like to think of it as a very long running Rotary eXperiment.

:squint:

thats the RX-Evolve concept car not the RX-8 protype. Later with some changes exterior ( like the hood among others) and interior it became the RX-8 prototype.

The clam shell forward tilt hood made way more sense to me. since the engine is so far back it would be much easier to work on with it tilted that way.

cool vid yo... I love history channel...

the guy walks like a fag

Nice find and nice post. It's always cool to see and hear about the inner working of our little power plants. THANKS!
