Believe it or not, the zoom-zoom boys are behind this beautiful concept car, and it’s called the Furai (Japanese for “sound of the wind” and pronounced “fu-rye”).
The look is based on an American Le Mans Series racecar, and the chassis is the actual Courage C65 chassis that Mazda used in the ALMS series two seasons ago.
Power comes from a 20B three-rotor rotary, and runs on E100 ethanol fuel to produce a reported 450-horsepower.
The lines of this car are what really make it a thing of beauty though, so compliments to Mazda and Swift Engineering for cloaking a wolf in wolf’s clothing.
Care to let DYH take a test drive?

Following the first TGI Friday, user ihave7stars is now the proud new owner of a $10 iTunes gift card, and had some really nice things to say about DYH:
You have a really cool site and I’m bookmarking it with the rest of my daily must-reads. It’s nice to get all my important news on one page without the other stuff I don’t care about.
This week, the TGI Friday is a great Photoshop of the new iPhone Shuffle, and a challenge to the DYH readers out there with some great Photoshoping skills of their own. Can you top the iPhone Shuffle? Now that we know what the real iPhone is going to look like, what do you think Apple should have done? What do you think Apple still has in store? iPhone Nano? iPhone Rotary? If I get some good ones, I’ll come up with a prize to give away for the best, so let the ideas run wild and let’s see what you’ve got.
