Hey guys if you haven't noticed yet. The MX-3 kind of resmebles a Honda del Sol but bigger. If you were to take the back windshield off, it would tremendously resmble a Honda del Sol. I just wanted to see if anyone else noticed that.

I guy named Dan Sohl (go figure) <BR>Made a custom hatch project for his MX-3. I preferrably dont like the look, but it does resemble an MX-3.

Ok now for another question does anyone know if a body kit for a Honda del Sol would fit on the MX-3? Can it be molded to where it would be able to fit?

I think the mx-3 is a more round shape version of the nissan NX pulsar from the late 80's. What do you think? The interior is almost the same and the exterior dimension are practicly identical.

I used to drive a pulsar, that was a nice car too, although I abused the hell out of it. I love my MX-3 but I think I could be persuaded to give it up for an RX-8, that car is AWESOME!!!!!!!!<BR>

Hell ya, I would give up my MX-3 for the RX-8 at any chance I could get. The RX-8 generates 250hp at 9,000rpm and would really kick some a--. That car would fly right off the line with no problem because of its light wieght and it being arodynamic.<p>[ September 23, 2001: Message edited by: powerman_5000 ]

hey is it just me or do the new RX-8 tail lights look surprisingly simmilar to the mx-3 tail lights......think about it......i think we just might have found a suitable substitute for euro tails....look to be about the same size and could swap in easy.....

I dont see the resemblance between the pulsar and the mx-3 at all. I think the del Sol and MX-3 look more a like.
