kinda old. before i bought my civic i looked at every import car company and all the cars they were looking into for the future. it's sexy though. i agree i dont like the flares. but i think that car and the 6 will boost mazda sales. why cant honda be that creative?

I Never understood something....Ok, these cars are FR Set ups, but at the same time, I always hear people comment they are one of the best handling cars out there. To me its an oxymoron, someone shed this light? How can rear wheel drive cars be one of the best handling? GIven that I never drove a FR car, or a RX-7 for that matter.

Wow...
It's called "WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION"
The RX7 has an almsot perfect ratio (perfect being 50/50). That is why is handles so great.

its hard to imagine the styles of today going out of style like those avantis... I bet they were fairly aggressively styled cars for their day and now look at em... screaming 70s. This is why I bought honda. They don't go to aggressive with their styling, and thus, in 10 years I won't look at my car and wonder what the heck i was thinking when I bought it [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
The RX-8 is a beautiful car but I definitely don't like the interior. I hope one tries to race me so i can see it go [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
