    This car has been a concept for the last 4-5 years, and as far as I know, production starts in 2004.

    It looked better in the beggining IMO.

    You are right Zlatan - The SLR will be out Summer 2004.
    It's still hot though :cool:
    Its very cool. It has a clean, cold, techincal look, unlike say ferraris who have a emotional, passionate look (could be due to the color :))

    It's a lean thing. The design yells out speed. Am fed up with beefy looking cars. The colour makes it look ready to go. It's just begging to be abused (excuse the words).
    I've always fancied cars with a long nose. I remember my first dream car was a Mazda RX-7 - Georgious animal. :)

    Glad to see a fan of the legendary RX-7 :cool: Many of my dreams were inspired by the RX-7. My normal dream car would be a Subaru WRX sti :)

    I would not mind an RX-7 in my stable. :)
    They went out and produced an RX-8. It's a bloody 4 door sports car :undecide:
