Facelifted '09 RX-8 debuts at Detriot Auto Show
Hmm...
I don't know if the exterior is an improvement over the current car or not, but I dig the optional Recaros!
Other than that, not much to write home about. Some minor suspension tweaks, a revised rear-end ratio to improve acceleration a little bit, and an "R3 Package" that includes the gunmetal finish 19" wheels seen above (19" wheels?), Bilstein shocks, those yummy Recaros, and a 300W Bluetooth stereo.
Meh. I'll keep mine. But I would like to get my hands on a pair of those seats...

Do I see teeth in the front grille? I look at the front and I swear it's saying "I like to eat small children!"
Good observation! I agree.Originally Posted by Titus

The front view is sexy, but I can't get past the side view front fender wagon-wheel lines.
Agreed...
...same here.
I will deffinetly second that motion. But I think I like the current tail lights a little more.
Is there an option where you can get the go fast goodies minus the 19" boat anchors?

YUCK, the front bumper looks like it has sh*t on it's upper lip.

It only goes to show when people can no longer discriminate on the grounds of race, religion, or sexual orientation, they can improvise and still find someone to hate. - Dave Moulton
I'm pretty sure he brought his pencil.Do you think he was hot for teacher?
I think it looks worse than the current car, except the Recaro. It is like putting lipstick on a pig! I dont' mean the current car is a pig. The designer just ran out of thing to improve upon the original design! Why Mazda not putting the money in improving the car than on some stupid styling exercise!
