Am I the only one who sees a little McLaren F1 in the back of this car?

Where did you get the name? Sauc3 kindly asked me to try and find it, which I did after spending a painful hour on unreadable Japanese websites...

All I managed to find is that they made two prototypes, one possibly circa 1996 (the red one I think) and another one circa 2000 (the white one). They both use Mazda Wankel engines. I gathered it might be based off the Autozam AZ-1.

Old websites tend not to be encoded correctly with Asian languages, so it turns out to be a bunch of random characters instead of text which make translating impossible.

This doesn't actually have anything to do with the 6/Atenza, right?

For some reason this car looks similar to the Yamaha OX 99-11

that's what i thought too
the Greddy 7 is just a modified RX7 with 997 headlamps

RE Amiya tune all mazda's extensively, So I'm not surprised if its got parts from across the mazda range.

You can see the styling flair of the series six through eight RX-7 in the front end.

-> I think everything in both red & white RE-GReddy 6 resembling the Yamaha prototype are purely coincedental. According RE-Amemiya's site; the car is powered by a highly modified (as usual) 13B kai 20B engine:

^ Sure it may have some design cues from the OX99-11 and the legendary McLaren F1, but this car is (I think) purely original.
