A few people only know where to find this blog, because some of my fellow bloggers never knew I changed my blog and I deleted the first one. Why? Because the first blog is not exciting as it looks, so I decided to make a new one. Even it's URL is tunerszone1410.blogspot.com, due to my attraction of cars.
I know, I know. The topics supposed to be like up there but, minutes later while producing a post, I checked on Wikipedia to let's see what's new on cars. I decided to check on Mazda and supposed to be there were five concept cars were shown off to every automobile otaku at International Auto Show.

The Mazda Furai is a concept car revealed on 27 December, 2007 and manufactured by Mazda. A teaser image of the vehicle was released on 11 December, 2007. The Furai officially debuts at the 2008 North American International Auto Show in Detroit.
The Furai, meaning Sound of the wind, is the fifth and last of the Mazda Nagare line of concept cars that have been made by Mazda since 2006. The chassis is based on the Courage Compétition C65 Le Mans Prototype that Mazda last used to compete in the American Le Mans Series, two seasons previously and is designed to use E100 ethanol fuel, it is powered by a new generation 3-rotor wankel engine that puts out 450 bhp. The car bears the #55 number that of its 1991 24 Hours of Le Mans winning ancestor, the 787B. Unlike many concept cars, the Furai is fully functional and is currently being tested at various tracks. It has run at Laguna Seca and Buttonwillow.

Well, by the looks of the horsepower, I bet this car is gonna be fast as a bullet and also considered as Japan's next generation of supercars. No wonder Japanese cars are started from slow to fast. I've bet those Japanese are now making Supercars, but there's one tiny thing to remind you Japanese people: don't forget your tuner cars (e.g. Impreza, Skyline, Civic and etc.)
Okay, so it's end of story, good-bye, THE END!!!
