Do a google search for "mazda mx6" under the images. Im almost certain its an mx6 now.

Mx6 is what i consider the crappy cross between an mx5 and rx7. Both the mx5 and rx7 are quicker i think and i also think its front wheel drive but im not sure.

edit: Now after seeing more pics im more convinced the mx6 is an overweight cousin to the mx5 and rx7.

Defiantly a MX6 there.
The MX6 is like a big hard top version of the MX5.
Notice the same nose:
http://carpoint.ninemsn.com.au/Content/Webphotos/113/CW/CW2370600-113-394FNK.jpg
And the arch at the back of the cab:
http://carpoint.ninemsn.com.au/Content/Webphotos/123/0CP/0CP-123-475.jpg
This one is probably the best pic to compare:
http://carpoint.ninemsn.com.au/Content/Webphotos/024/CW/CW880166-024-NER988.jpg

The MX6 is a front wheel drive and came with a DOHC 60 degree V6 in either 2.5, 2.0 or 1.8ltr displacement. The output for the 2.5 us 123kw @5600 - 221nm @4800, the 2.0 104kw @6000 - 170nm @5000, and the 1.8 has 97kw @6500 - 156nm @4500. It was sold in America as the MX6 as well (unlike the MX5 that is/was sold as the Miata). See here.
Google is your friend.

Edit: Oh yeah, it weighs about 1190kgs too, giving it an approx 73kw at the wheels per ton.

Show him this thread!!!

MX6
http://carpoint.ninemsn.com.au/Content/Webphotos/024/CW/CW880166-024-NER988.jpg

RX7
http://carpoint.ninemsn.com.au/Content/Webphotos/231/UC/UC706-231-01.jpghttp://carpoint.ninemsn.com.au/Content/Webphotos/230/UC/UC246-230-01.jpg

Notice the totaly different rear and front end and back of the cab. Also notice the different body curves.

If he STILL thinks its a RX7, then get him to give you a picture of under the hood. If the engine is Transverse, like the MX6s is, then it's NOT an RX7. An RX7 is a rear wheel drive, not front like the MX6.

Yeah, tell him that. And then tell him to sell his MX6 and buy a RX7. Then tell him to take it out in the wet. Evil or Very Mad
And laugh as he smashes the back end in after oversteering around a corner.

THAT'S rear wheel drive baby!! Laughing

No No No
Like I said, TELL HIM TO LOOK UNDER THE HOOD. If the engine is Transverse (ie, goes from one from wheel to the other) then it's a MX6! If however it goes from the front of the car to the back, then it's a mutant MX6, or a RX7 with the body of a MX6... so it's realy an MX6 with an RX7 engine and a RWD conversion.

Pah, this guy sounds like a dick.

SERIES I, II & III RX7 (1979-85)
http://www.rx7-gallery.co.uk/binrx7/savannah_rx7_7885/rx71w.jpg

SERIES IV & V RX7 (1986-91)
http://www.japimports.com.au/vehicles/car013.JPG

SERIES VI, VII & VIII RX7 (1991+)
http://www.nocamzmotorsport.co.nz/Cars-f2.jpg

Tell me at what point does the RX7 range look anything like that MX6?

I'm pretty sure that every RX7 has always had pop up headlights.
Every RX7 is RWD. Note pix in Shraka post.
That's EVERY RX7 ever made.

Get him to put the handbrake on & dump the clutch. Laughing If it spins the front wheels its an MX6.

There should also be a build plate from Mazda on the firewall. I bet it says MX6.

I also bet it sounds nothing like a rotary.

Idea On second thought, if he can't tell the difference even now, I don't think he deserves to own either car. Evil or Very Mad

Do you want to go for a good laugh.

Bet him $100 & then go with him to Mazda & ask them.
The guys in the workshop will get a laugh out of that too.

And seeing he's so adament that its an RX7, he'd probably go along with this plan.

Next time you see him pop the hood. RX7s are REAR WHEEL DRIVE ROTARIES. MX6s are FRONT WHEEL DRIVE V6s. If he can't tell the difference between the two then there is no hope.

Nah, Tell him to take the 'rx7' in the rain and try for oversteer. He can put his buckled rims next to ones that came of a civic that passed me in the rain one afternoon, but never went much further then the next street Very Happy
