Dude, who cares? It's obvious that all other car producers envy honda's l33t stylin', y0!
Not to be knitpicking, but the RX-8 or RX-Evolv/RX-1 was being developed before the last RX-7 was even released, circa '92.

The S2000, per Automotive news, started development in 1997, well after the RX-Evolv was making it's rounds through the car shows.

Just FYI.

The RX-7 guys SWEAR that Dodge copied the RX-7 body style from Mazda to the Viper, but infact, they both copied TVR, which had been designing a Speed 6 for sometime before either of them had considered building their respectiive cars.

Just a little useless info.

Honestly give credit where its due...

Honda copied the general style for ALL of their 80s car from the vennerable Ferrari 400/412i...a style dating to the time of the 365 GT4 series on the early 70s (a guy over on ferrarichat.com has a nice red '73..looks the same but with 6 tail lights instead of the now trademark 4)







EDIT: Look at the front...seem familar?

BTW, 400 or 412i have a delightful V12 front engined drive train....and like most f-cars...a seductive exhaust tone that rice burners only would dream of possessing

Ferraris
Ferrari drive 'feel':
Ferrari sound (engine&/exhaust):
Ferrari mentainance

EDIT: Lets not forget relaibility
Ferrari parts cost

no stag, i TOTALLY agree with you... the first time i saw an RX8, i was like OMFG Mazda is biting honda's ****! .....that looks totally like an S2000 tail light, and the rest of the car resembles an S as well.... IMO to RX8's... but then again, think of it this way, atleast they aren't making a Protege look like an S...
As usual, you live up to the reputation of drooling moron.

Funny thing is, the Renesis(RX8 powerplant) still produces more HP/L, HAHAHA!
