I like the front end and the back end.
I hate the way it looks from the sides.

I love the way it looks, but drive one first. It's a fun car IF you keep the RPMs up but it has very little low-end torque. I'm sure some people like that but it's not for me. It's the same with Hondas, too.

I think it needs to be fixed, good potential...but the front fender flares are higher than the rear flares, and from the side it looks very disproportionate. From an isometric view it still seems a little awkward, albeit not enough to hate it...

Nope, don't like it.

If they just raised the rear fender flares, and made the front ones smaller or less exaggerated, it would do the car wonders. And maybe take away the mobster look.. :p

A bunch here in the bay area. Ugly car tho the 3rd door is cool.
Typical Japanese car that falls flat in its design to imitate other supercars. I think the 3rd door design was stolen from saturn too.

Haha, they really don't... I wouldn't buy a car from there ;) I'll be getting a decent deal on bodywork for my car from the service dept though.

I loved the previous RX7 the most, the previous 2gens were nice too, of the last 4 I like the current body style the least.

That said, I like this one that I saw at a fair in S.FL.
