To be honest, I liked the look of the concept a bit better, but whatever...

Here's the Jaguar C-X75. Looks like it takes design cues from the current XKR and the old XJ220...


Looks good. Very futuristic too...

There's also going to be two rebadged versions, one for Subaru and one for Scion...

I love it! [inlove]

I prefer the FT-86 though

I agree, the concept looked better than the production version...

The Scion version is the F-RS and the Subaru version is gonna be called the BRZ. Not bad cars, but I agree the FT-86 looked better...

Yes they do. Everything from the old E-Type Jags to the XJ220 is awesome...

It looks like that's a BMW M5 that got a face-lift to be honest. I actually like the Veyron better than that...

Suzuki SX4 Hill Climb anyone?

It also appears as a DLC car in Forza 4, this marks the first Forza game to have a rally car

[bump]

Mitsubishi has announced that this year they will stop production of the Eclipse. Same goes to Mazda with the RX-8.

Say byebye to the Mistubishi Eclipse and the Mazda RX-8. The two awesome Japanese cars to bid farewell.

Are they going to be replacing those cars? Something replacing the Eclipse and perhaps probably an RX-9?

^^I'm not sure if Mitsubishi will replace the Eclipse..

Mazda is replacing the RX-8. They said that the rotary engines are not dead yet. They're making a new rotary engine car.

The reason Mazda put an end on the RX-8 is due to low sales.

Well, I can't say I liked the RX-8 better than the RX-7. Good to see they're not scrapping the rotary engine idea though...
