    Someone enlighten me, why isnt that a RX-9?

    There was RX-7, RX-8, so this is a RX-7 reincarnated?

    name recognition. The RX-8 was going to carry the number 7 but they thought fans of the 7 might not like the idea of the classic 2 door suddenly gaining a set of doors and a less hard core image. So they named it the RX-8.

    I'm going to be interested in what ever they come up with if its paired to rival the BRZ then theirs a risk it might eat into MX5 sales but with romours the next 5 will be downsized could this be the ground work for a car to rival the BRZ/GT86?

    As for the RX-7 I've always loved the looks it has a very classic look nothing risky cosmetically but still unique looking. Oh and rotory's ftw
