Mazda RE-Amemiya Genki 7

Isami Amemiya founded RE Amemiya Car Company in Chiba, Japan way back in 1974. The tuning company has been specialising in the modification of cars fitted with the rotary engine. For a long time these have been exclusively Mazda RX-7s. At this year's Tokyo Auto Salon RE Amemiya presents the Genki7.

The Genki7 is built from an RX-7 and it apparently features an engine tuned by long-time RE Amemiya collaborator GReddy. No numbers were tossed alongside the pictures apart from the claim that the engine will help the Genki7 "leave everyone behind".

Why any body would do this to a RX7 is beyond me, apart from the beautiful engine bay, the only good looking part of the car is the front bumper other than that the car should be scraped.

I like it a lot! Except for the covering of the back wheels.

I like the front end but I hate the rear part, more ground clearance is needed as well.

The RX7 is one of the prettiest cars to come from Japan, this modification looks too plasticky!
