If so you're completely wrong:
NC Miata:
wheelbase: 91.7 inch
Length: 157.3-158.3 inches
width: 67.7 inches
Kabura concept:
wheelbase: 100.4
Length: 159.4
width: 70.1
RX-8:
wheelbase: 106.4
Length: 174.2-176
width: 69.7
FT-86II:
wheelbase: 101.18
length: 166.7
width: 70.6
As you can see the Kabura was much closer in size (length, wheelbase) to a miata than it was a rx-8 and it was a parts bin concept using many of the miatas components including engine and transmission. |
When the concept first came out it supposedly had a rotary and was running a 3+1 seating arrangement inside. I was completely off on that one.
