thats a CONCEPT car that wont come to production anytime soon, if it does it will most like be an MX- series car, if it does hit the production lines it wont look like the concept car anyway.

My opinion is re-release the FD rehashed (kinda like Ford, Chevy, and Dodge have done with some of their lines). As far as car designs go I don't think Mazda could really top the FD. That car is just plain beautiful. Not to flashy, but not plain either. Maybe it is just me, but it looks like the Kabura basically has the front based off of an RX-8, and the rear reminds me of an RX-3. Not the ugliest concept I have seen, but Mazda dare not use RX if it is not going to have a rotary in it.

Mazda said a long time ago that the kabura was based on the idea of a modern day Rx-3

Any modern day rehash of the rx3 should look like the rx3 like the dodge challenger concept looks like the original.

"Just a little Mazda, our you it is slow, blow that!"

In the words of the Infamous Paul Lamar "NO ROTOR, NO MOTOR".

You goober. The X doesn't stand for anything. RX, MX, etc. X is just a cool letter
