I was just reading on wikipedia.org that mazda had initially designed the rx-8 to be a two seater sports coupe, but the production cost would have been too high so the scrapped the idea and the car you see before you is what we got. Anyways this is kinda jumping the gun a little bit but in 2009 is when the rx-8 is up for a redesign, mabey the next one will be a two seater with a supercharger?

the RX-8 is being re-designed for 2010, they said it is a possiblity that they might use the kabura design. if you havent seen it look it up. it's a 3 seater, that weighs about 2400 pounds. throw the current renesis motor in that with the horsepower it was supposed to have which was 250 and that car will fly without the use of a supercharger.

The Kabura looks too much like a prius from the back but still looks good none the less. I'm prett sure if they do decide to put it into production that the line won't be as sharp.

the prius? it shares the platform of the rx-8 almost exactly.

It just looks too futureistic and not very realisistic.

so did the rx-8 and it came out, besides they already have a working model of the kabura, they just dont know what engine to throw in there.
