probably just testing the 16x out. i hope it looks a little better than that if they're gonna do a face-lift.

thanks for sharing.

looks like a nice lil lift but that left should have been done for the 07/08 models, the car will be damn near 7 years old at the point of a 2010 model

Doubt it, that's clearly a facelifted car and they're probably testing it with the drivetrain that will come with it. I'll be shocked if we see the 16x prior to a fully new model.

you're probably right. although, i do like the darker tails. they really should have done that like they did with the fd's taillights.

sharkman 12-10-2007 01:28 PM

not much difference IMO. just some cosmetic touch ups.

Areyouin729 12-10-2007 01:29 PM

i'll be very dissappointed if they just facelift the car for the 16x

I want a new RX with that engine, otherwise I will prob. be looking into the next gen. Nissan Z or that new Toyota which may or may not be the Supra

ZoomZoomH 12-10-2007 01:31 PM

i see new side blinker lights on the front fender! yaaayyyy!!!! *sarcasm*

tajabaho1 12-10-2007 01:37 PM

god, we wait 7 years for this shit?

Wankel1 12-10-2007 01:43 PM

Same thing again and again, Mazda wake up!

Ajax 12-10-2007 01:46 PM

Not a whole lot of changes, but still...the part in the article addressing the sensor hooked to the exhaust seems intersting.

Enjoy.

snizzle 12-10-2007 01:51 PM

You guys need to calm down.

This spy shot tells us nothing other than they are probably testing new engine equipment and the front end will get a visual refresh. It'll still be built around the same platform hence the old sheetmetal.... for now.

RojoOcho 12-10-2007 01:58 PM

It's a test mule. Not a concept.

Jedi54 12-10-2007 02:01 PM

yeah, most likely testing out a few new things. (not the 16x)
Looks like they swiped the wheels off the 40th anniversary RX-8.
Is that really a blinker???

I might have to start taking side streets to the office since it is DOWN the street from Mazda's R&D facility.

Jedi54 12-10-2007 02:02 PM

someone beat ya by about 30 minutes.

Looks like the front end has a bigger "mouth" than the current model. Looks kinda like the other newer Mazda's (new Mazda6 CX9 etc....)

lesper4 12-10-2007 02:11 PM

damn you beat me to it (by about an hour lol) about time mazda.

Yep, I like it better plus it'll keep people from adding those hideous strakes.

chetrickerman 12-10-2007 02:20 PM

i see no difference besides the fender vents and the rear bumper maybe. thats it.

The Drunk IT Guy 12-10-2007 02:32 PM

I was thinking "OH WOW AWESOME!"

*click*

Nothing to see here...

Mikeluvs8 12-10-2007 02:42 PM

I Hope Its Turbo!!!

SayNoToPistons 12-10-2007 02:47 PM

Looks like it will have a bigger smile...

Spin9k 12-10-2007 02:59 PM

... whatever fabulousness there is there ... must be more than skin deep cause all I see is an RX-8 :scratchhe...meh they must be testing a new color interior or perhaps a new NAV disk...:rolleyes:

lesper4 12-10-2007 03:08 PM

i was thinking, all the other RX models have been around for about 4 years befroe a new model comes out. why is mazda going to face lift the 8 if this will be its 6th year in production (a final year). Maybe its not a final year or if it is that means a new RX with a new engine will be out soon?
